Initial velocity(u)=0 m/s. [as the bus is starting from rest].
acceleration(a)=0.1 m/s².
Time=2 minutes = 120 s.
a. Speed acquired(v)=u+at.
v=0+0.1(120).
v=12 m/s.
Therefore the speed acquired=12 m/s.
b. Distance(s)=ut+1/2at².
s=0(120)+1/2*0.1*(120)².
s=0.1/2*14400
s=720 m.
Therefore the distance travelled is 720m.
