Question

A particle is moving with uniform acceleration. In the 11th and 15th seconds from the
beginning, it travels 7.2 m and 9.6 m respectively. Find its initial velocity and acceleration
with which it moves?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the distance travelled in nth second is given by ,

\sf S_n = u +\dfrac{1}{2}a [2n-1]S

n

=u+

2

1

a[2n−1]

Distance travelled in 11th sec .

=> S_11 = u + ½a [2(11)-1]

,=> S_11 = u + ½a [22-1]

=> S_11 = u + 21a/2

=> 7.2 m = u + 21a/2

Distance travelled in 15th sec .

=> => S_15 = u + ½a [2(15)-1]

,=> S_15 = u + ½a [30-1]

=> S_15 = u + 29 a/2

=> 9.6 m = u + 29a/2

S_15 - S_11 :-

=> 9.6 - 7.2 = 29a/2-21a/2

=> 2.4 = 8a/2

=> a = 2.4 /4

=> acclⁿ = 0.6 m/s²

Put this in first case ,

=> 7.2m = u + 21 * 0.6 /2

=> 7.2 m = u + 21*0.3

=> 7.2 m = u + 6.3

=> u = 7.2 - 6.3

=> u = 0.9 m/s
