Who won the 2006 Formula 1 world Championship?

The 2007 Formula One season was the 58th FIA Formula One World Championship season. It began on 18 March and ended on 21 October after seventeen Grands Prix. The Drivers' Championship was won by Ferrari driver Kimi Räikkönen by one point at the final race of the season, making Räikkönen the third Finnish driver to take the title. An appeal by McLaren regarding the legality of some cars in the final race could have altered the championship standings, but on 16 November, the appeal was reportedly rejected by the International Court of Appeal, confirming the championship results. Räikkönen entered the final race in third position in the drivers' standings, but emerged as champion after the chequered flag, a feat that had been accomplished only by Giuseppe Farina in 1950.

Why do formula 1 cars have wings?

Wings provide aerodynamics, to both improve handling and make the car faster.

Edit:

Wings provide what is commonly known as downforce. This form of drag forces the cars into the ground when the car is traveling at significant speed, and increases as a function of speed. This downward force allows much more grip in turns due to the car "weighing" more as it is pushed into the car, because friction is equal to the coeficient of friction multiplied by the weight of the object (Or force adhering the surfaces together). So, although they do indeed make the cars go faster around turns, these wings significantly reduce top speed as well as acceleration due to the tremendous drag that they produce.

A race car accelerates from rest of 6 ms2 how fast will the car be going after 5 seconds?

30 m/s

Use the kinematic equation:

vf=vi+at,

where:

vf is the final velocity, vi is the initial velocity, a is the rate of acceleration, and t is the time interval.

Known

vi = 0 m/s

a = 6 m/s2 = 6 m/s/s

t = 5 s

Unknown

vf

Solution

Plug in the known values and solve.

#vf = 0 + 6 m/s/s x 5s = 30 m/s
