A body starts from rest and moves with a uniform acceleration of 2 m/s2 in a
straight line. What is the velocity after 5s, How far has it travelled in this time and When will it be 100m from its starting point?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Final velocity = 10 m/s

Time taken to travel 100 meter = 8.16 second (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Acceleration = 2 m/s²

Initial velocity = 0 m/s

Find:

Velocity after 5 seconds

Time taken to travel 100 meter

Computation:

Using first equation of motion

v = u + at

v = 0 + (2)(5)

Final velocity = 10 m/s

Using Second equation of motion

s = ut + (1/2)(a)(t²)

100 = (0)(t) + (1/2)(3)(t²)

100 = (1/2)(2)(t²)

100  = (t²)

t = 10

Time taken to travel 100 meter = 8.16 second (Approx.)
