A car moving with the velocity of 54km/hrs accelerate uniformly at the rate of 2m/s,calculate the distance traveled from the place where the acceleration began to where the velocity reach 72km/hrs and the time taken to covered the distance.
Given,
We know that
- Car is moving with a velocity of 54km/h at it accelerates at 2m/s².
- The final velocity of the car is 72km/h.
We have to find,
- The distance travelled by the car and time taken by the car.
Now,
Converted km/h to m/s.
u = 54 km/h = 15 m/s
v = 72 km/h = 20 m/s
_______________________________________
u = 15 m/s ; v = 20 km/h ; a = 2m/s² ; s = ? ; t = ?
We have to use first equation of motion to find time.
➣ v = u + at
➣ 20 = 15 + 2t
➣ 20 - 15 = 2t
➣ t = 5/2
➣ t = 2.5sec
_______________________________________
We have to use third equation of motion to find distance.
➣ s = ut + 1/2 at²
➣ s = 15(2.5) + 1/2 × 2 × 2.5 × 2.5
➣ s = 37.5 + 6.25
➣ s = 43.75m
✐ Hence the distance travelled by the car is 43.75m
