Answer:
0.917 seconds
Explanation:
Given that,
length of a snake is 2.97 m
The speed of the snake is 3.24 m/s
The acceleration of the snake is 3.09 m/s²
We need to find the time taken by the snake to reach its top speed. Let t is the time.
Speed = distance/time
Here, distance = length of the snake
[tex]t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{2.97\ m}{3.24\ m/s}\\\\t=0.917\ s[/tex]
Hence, the time taken by the snake to reach its top speed is 0.917 seconds.
