New acceleration, a = (1 + 5%)(2.16) = 2.268 ms^-2
New maximum velocity, v = (1 + 5%)(8) = 8.4 ms^-1
Consider the journey when he is accelerating,
by v = u + at
8.4 = 0 + (2.268)t
Time, t = 3.70 s
By v^2 = u^2 + 2as
(8.4)^2 = 0 + 2(2.268)s
Displacement, s = 15.56 m
So, the displacement left, s' = 100 - 15.56 = 84.44 m
And the time required to cover this displacement, t' = 84.44/8.4 = 10.05 s
So, the time required for the race = 0.3 + 3.70 + 10.05 = 14.06 s
He will perform (14.65 - 14.06) = 0.59 s better
