Question

Find the distance covered by an object moving in a straight line with a velocity of 50m/s after 16s. Acceleration of the object is 10m/s².​

Answer 1

ANSWER:

• Distance covered by the object = 2080 m

GIVEN:

• Initial velocity = 50 m/s.

• Acceleration of the object is 10 m/s².

• Time taken = 16 s

TO FIND:

• Distance covered by the object = 2080 m

EXPLANATION:

$\boxed{\bold{\large{S = ut + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2}}}$

u = 50 m/s

t = 16 s

a = 10 m/s²

S = 50(16) +1/2 10(16²)

S = 800 + 5 × 256

S = 800 + 1280

S = 2080 m

∴ The distance covered by the object will be equal to 2080 m.

$\boxed{\bold{\large{v = u + at}}}$

$\boxed{\bold{\large{v^2 - u^2 =2 as}}}$
