Question

A bus starting from rest moves with an uniform acceleration of 0.1 m/s2 for 2 minutes. Find the distance covered by the bus.

Answer 1

Answer: Thus, the bus will travel a distance of 720 m in the given time of 2 minutes.

Explanation:

The distance traveled:

We know that,  

s = u t + 1/ 2 a t ²

⇒ s = 0 × 120 s + 1 /2 × 0.1 m / s ² × ( 120 s ) 2

= 1 /2 × 1440 m

= 720 m

Thus, bus will travel a distance of 720 m in the given time of 2 minute.
