A car accelerates from rest along a straight section of road. It starts at position s = 150 m and reaches a speed of 20 m/s at position s = 200 m. It is proposed that this acceleration, a, can be modelled as being a function of position, s, in the form a = c/s. With this model, what is the constant c?
