Question

A motorboat starting from rest on a lake accelerates at the rate of 1 m/s.how far does the boat travel during 10 seconds

Answer 1

Initial velocity, u = 0
Acceleration, a = 1 m/s
Time, t = 10 s 
$s = ut + a t^{2} /2$
s = 0 + 1*100/2 = 50 m

Answer 2

Answer:

A motorboat starting from rest on a lake accelerates at the rate of 1 m/s.how far does the boat travel during 10 seconds

Explanation:

Initial velocity, u = 0

Acceleration, a = 1 m/s

Time, t = 10 s

s = ut + a t^{2} /2s=ut+at

2

/2

s = 0 + 1*100/2 = 50 m
