A bus travelling at 15ms\(^{-1}\) accelerates uniformly at 4ms\(^{-2}\), what is the distance covered in 10s?
- 150m
- 170m
-
350m
- 600m
The correct answer is: C
Explanation
given: u = 15m/s, a = 4m/s\(^2\), t = 10secs, S = ?
Using:
S = ut + \(\frac{1}{2}\)at\(^2\)
S = 15 x 10 + 0.5 x 4 x 100
S = 350m.
