A car start from rest acquires a velocity of 10 m/s in 5 second calculate (the acceleration) b (the distance covered by the the body in 5 second
Answers
Answer:nitial velocity = 0 m/s
final velocity = 10 m/s
time = 5 seconds
(a) need to find ==> acceleration
given ==> initial velocity, final velocity and time
procedure ==> a = (v-u)/t
a = (10-0)/5
a = 10/5 = 2 m/s^2
therefore, the acceleration of the body is 2 m/s^2
(b) need to find ==> distance
given ==> acceleration, time, initial velocity and final velocity
procedure ==> s = ut + 1/2 at^2
s = 0*5 + 1/2 * 2 * 5 * 5
s = 0 + 5*5
s = 0 + 25
s = 25 m
therefore, the distance covered by the body is 25 metres
Explanation:
Answer:
initial velocity : 0m/s
time : 5 sec
final velocity : 10m/s
a) to find -- acceleration
We know that ;
v= u + a t
-- 10 = 0+ a * 5
-- a = 10/ 5
therefore , acceleration is 2 m/s^2
b) to find -- distance travelled in 5 second
We know that ;
s= u t + 1/2 a t^2
-- s= 0*5 + 1/2 * 2 * 5^2
-- s= 0 + 10
therefore , distance travelled in 5 sec is 10 m/s^2.
