Question

a body starts its motion with speed of 10m/s and accelerates for 10s with 10 m/s. what will be the distance covered by the body in 10s

Answer 1

600 m.

Explanation:

We can use one of the equations of motion under constant acceleration. The one we want here is s = ut + 0.5at^2, where s = distance travelled, u = initial speed, a = acceleration and t = time.

We have: s = 10*10 + 1/2 * 10 * 10^2

= 100 + 500

= 600 m. (answer)
