The time is #=0.47s#

The power is

#P=UI#

The voltage is #U=6V#

The current is #I=9A#

The power is

#P=UI=6*9=54W#

The kinetic energy of the car is

#E=1/2mv^2#

The mass is #m=7kg#

The speed is #v=14/3ms^-1#

so,

#E=1/2*7*(14/3)^2=25.28J#

Let the time #=(t)s#

#E=Pt#

#t=E/P=(25.28)/54=0.47s#
