if a bus travelling at 600 km per hour is subjected to a steady declaration of 5 metre per second square how long will it take to come to rest
Answers
Answer:
33.33 seconds
Explanation:
Given:
Initial velocity = u = 600 km/hr
Acceleration = a = -5 m/s^2
Final velocity = v = 0 (As the bus would finally come to rest)
To find:
Time
Using the first equation of motion which says :
V=u+at
Substituting the values, we get:
The time taken to stop is 33.33 seconds
QUESTION :
if a bus travelling at 600 km per hour is subjected to a steady declaration of 5 metre per second square how long will it take to come to rest...
SOLUTION :
The innitial velocity of the bus is 600 kmph
=> 600 × 5 / 18 m / s
=> 166.67 m / s
A = -5 m / s ^ 2
Let the time taken for the bus to come to rest be t
=> Using Newton' first law of motion ,
A = v - u / t
Where , V is the final velocity .
U Is the initial velocity.
T is the time taken.
A is the acceleration.
A = -5 m / s ^ 2
V = 0 as the bus stops after travelling some distance.
So,
-5 = 0 - 166.67 / t
The negative sign on both sides gets cancelled.
Now, t = 166.67 / 5 s = 33.334 seconds approximately.
So , the time taken for the bus to come to rest is 33.334 Seconds approximately.
ANSWER :
THE time taken for the bus to come to rest is 33.334 Seconds approximately.
