what constant acceleration, in SI units, must a car have to go from zero to 60mph in 10s?

How far has the car traveled when it reaches 60mph?

First, recognize or calculate that the final velocity is
60 mph = 88.00 ft/s = 26.822 m/s
Then divided the metric (SI) final velocity by 10 seconds to get the acceleration in m/s^2.

That will give you the acceleration, a. To get the distance travelled in meters, use
X = (1/2) a t^2, or
X = (1/2)(final velocity)(time)

300m
