A train starting from rest moves with uniform acceleration of 5m/s².Find its velocity when it has traveled for 1 km
Answers
Answer:
from third law of motion,
v^2= u^2+ 2*a*s
here rest velocity u=0. acceleration a=5 m/s^2
change distance in unit term of acceleration i.e. 1 km= 1000 m distance
s=1000 m
put the values in above equation,,… v^2=0^2+ 2*5*1000
v^2= 10000 —-> v=root(10000)
v=100 m/s ans

In the above Question , the following information is given -
A train starting from rest moves with uniform acceleration of 5m/s².
To find -
Find the velocity of the body after covering 1 km .
Solution -
Here , the body starts from rest . So , the initial velocity of the body , u is equal to 0 m / s .
Now , the acceleration of the body is uniformly equal to 5 m / s² .
Now , the body travels a length of 1 km or 1000 m .
Now ,let us find the time taken for the body to cover a length of 1000 m .
According to the second equation of motion -
S = ut + ½at²
Substituting the given values -
1000 = ½ × 5 t²
=> t² = 400
=> t = 20 seconds .
Now , according to the first equation of motion -
V = u + at
=> V_20s = 5 × 20
=> V = 100 m / s .
Thus , the velocity of the body after covering 1 km is 100 m / s .
