An athletes start running from rest . He accelerates uniformly and completes 100m race in 10 seconds. Find his acceleration
Added by Esther S.
Step 1
We also know that the initial velocity (u) is 0 (since the athlete starts from rest) and we need to find the acceleration (a). We can use the equation of motion: d = ut + 0.5at^2 Show more…
