Answers
Question-
A truck attains a speed of 10 m/s in 10s starting from rest. Calculate the acceleration of the truck.
Solution-
Given that, the truck attains a speed of 10 m/s in 10 sec.
So, final velocity (v) = 10 m/s and time (t) = 10 sec
Also given that, Initial velocity (u) of the truck is 0 m/s. [As the truck attains a speed of 10 m/s starting from rest]
We have to find the acceleration (a) of the truck.
Using First Equation of Motion,
v = u + at
Substitute the known values
→ 10 = 0 + a(10)
→ 10 = 10a
Divide by 10 on both sides
→ 10/10 = 10a/10
→ 1 = a
Therefore, acceleration of the truck is 1 m/s².
Given:-
A truck attains a speed of 10 m/s in 10 s starting from rest.
To find:-
The acceleration of the truck.
Solution:-
Time(t) = 10 s
Initial velocity(u) = 0 m/s (As the bus started from rest).
Final velocity(v) = 10 m/s
We know,
v = u + at
Putting the values in the above equation :
10 = 0 + a(10)
⇒10 = 10a
So, the acceleration of the truck in time(t) is 1 m/s².
