Question

point
A bicycle moves with a constant velocity of 5 km/h
for 10 minutes and then decelerates at the rate
1 km/h, till it stops. Find the total distance covered
by the bicycle.​

Answer 1

initially for 10 min constant velocity is present. So distance travelled is 5*10/60=5/6km

Now for for the other part apply NLM

v2=u2+2as

0=5^2 + 2*(-1)s

25=2s>>s=25/2km

total distance is (25/2+5/6)km
