Question
A car starts from rest and acquires a velocity of 12m/s in 5 sec. Calculate the acceleration and distance moved.
Solution
Here,
Initial velocity, u = 0
Final velocity, v = 12m/s
Time taken to acquire the velocity, t = 5s
Using the equation, we have
v = u + at
where, a is the acceleration of the moving car, and
s is the distance moved by the car.
