A particle starting from rest moves with constant acceleration if it takes 5.0s to reach the speed 180 km/h find the average velocity during this period and the distance travelled by the particle during this period
Answers
• In the given question information given about a particle start moving from rest and after 5 sec velocity increase 180 km/h.
• We have to find the avg velocity and distance travelled by the particle during this time period.
• According to given question :
Solution:
Given:
➜ A particle starting from rest moves with constant acceleration if it takes 5.0s to reach the speed 180 km/h.
Find:
➜ Find the average velocity during this period and the distance travelled by the particle during this period.
Know terms:
➜ Initial velocity = (u)
➜ Final velocity = (v)
➜ Acceleation = (a)
➜ Time = (T)
Given:
➜ v = 180 × 5/18 = 50 m/s
Average velocity:
Using first equation of motion:
➜ v = u + at
➜ 50 = 0 + a × 5
➜ a = 50/5
➜ a = 10 m/s²
Using third equation of motion:
➜ s = ut + 1/2 at
➜ s/t = 0 + 1/2 × 10 × 5
➜ 25 m/s
Distance:
Using second equation of motion:
➜ v² = u² + 2as
➜ 50² = 0² + 2 × 10 × 5
➜ 2500 = 20 × 5
➜ s = 2500/20
➜ s = 125 m
