Meriam, Kraige & Bolton — Kinematics of Particles: Problem 2_11

2/11 In the pinewood-derby event shown, the car is released from rest at the starting position A and then rolls down the incline and on to the finish line C. If the constant acceleration down the incline is \(2.75 \text{ m/s}^2\) and the speed from B to C is essentially constant, determine the time duration \(t_{AC}\) for the race. The effects of the small transition area at B can be neglected.
