Given that,
Distance = 10 m
Time = 1.0 sec
Acceleration a =20 m/s²
We need to calculate the baboon's initial velocity
Using equation of motion
[tex]s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]
Where, s = distance
t = time
a = acceleration
Put the value in to the formula
[tex]10=u\times1+\dfrac{1}{2}\times20\times1^2[/tex]
[tex]u=10-10[/tex]
[tex]u=0\ m/s[/tex]
Hence, The baboon's initial velocity is zero.
