Distance traveled by a body is given by 2S = (10t + 5t^2) m and t is in seconds. The acceleration of the body is : A. 2.5 ms^-2 B. 5 ms^-2 C. 10 ms^-2 D. 15 ms^-2
Added by Samuel I.
Step 1
The velocity is the derivative of the distance with respect to time. So, we differentiate the given equation with respect to time. The given equation is 2S = 10t + 5t^2. First, divide the equation by 2 to get S = 5t + 2.5t^2. Now, differentiate S with respect Show more…

The distance travelled by the body in t seconds is given by 3s = 9t + 4t^2. Then the uniform acceleration of the body is A. 8/3 m/s^2 B. 4 m/s^2 C. 4/3 m/s^2 D. 3/4 m/s^2

A body describes 20m in the 7th second of its motion and 24m in the 9th second. If the motion is uniformly accelerated, then find: (a) Initial velocity of the body (b) Acceleration of the body (c) Distance traveled in 5 seconds (d) Distance traveled in the 5th second (e) Velocity of the body at t = 10 seconds
Madhur L.
The velocity acquired by a body moving with uniform acceleration is $30 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$ in $2 \mathrm{~s}$ and $60 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$ in $4 \mathrm{~s}$. The initial velocity is a. zero b. $2 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$ c. $3 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}$ d. $10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}$
