Answer:

60m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Speed of car after 5 sec, v=40m/s

Acceleration ,a=[tex]-4m/s^2[/tex]

We have to find the initial speed of car.

We know that

Acceleration, a=[tex]\frac{v-u}{t}[/tex]

Where v=Final speed

u=Initial speed

Using the formula

[tex]-4=\frac{40-u}{5}[/tex]

[tex]-4\times 5=40-u[/tex]

[tex]-20=40-u[/tex]

[tex]u=40+20[/tex]

[tex]u=60[/tex]

Hence, initial speed of car=60m/s
