Understanding the Concepts

* Initial Velocity (u): 24 m/s

* Acceleration (a): 2 m/s²

* Time (t): 8 seconds

* Final Velocity (v): What we need to find

Formula

We can use the following equation of motion to find the final velocity:

v = u + at

Calculation

1. Substitute the values:

v = 24 m/s + (2 m/s² * 8 s)

2. Simplify:

v = 24 m/s + 16 m/s

3. Final Velocity:

v = 40 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the car is 40 m/s.
