    Displacement = Initial Velocity * time + 0.5 * acceleration * time^2

    Initial velocity * time = 0 since we assume that the car is launching from start without motion.

    So, displacement = 0.5 * acceleration * time ^ 2

    23.8 = 0.5 * acceleration * 4.2^2

    23.8 = 0.5 * 17.64 * acceleration

    23.8 = 8.82 * acceleration

    23.8/8.82 = acceleration = 2.69 m/s^2

    Final Velocity = initial velocity + acceleration * time

    Final velocity = 0 + 2.69 * 4.2 = 11.3 m/s
