Question

A bus starting from rest moves with a uniform acceleration of 0.2 m/s² for 2 min. Find speed and total distance travelled

Answer 1

hey dear
here is your answer

given data :

initial velocity (u) = 0

acceleration (a) = 0.2 m/s²

time (t) = 2 min. or 120 seconds

to find : distance and speed

here we go

solution : for distance

by using 2nd equation of motion

s = ut+1/2at²

s = 0+1/2*0.2*(120)²

s = 0.1*14400

s = 1449 meter

solution : for speed

speed = distance / time

speed = 1440 / 120

speed = 12 m/s

hope it helps :)
