Question
According to the pion, what is the distance it travels from the accelerator to the medical bay?A. $0.30 \mathrm{m}$B. $3.0 \mathrm{m}$C. $30 \mathrm{m}$D. $3000 \mathrm{m}$
Step 1
We know that the pion travels at 0.98c, where c is the speed of light (3.0 x 10^8 m/s). Speed = distance / time 0.98c = distance / time Now, we need to find the distance. We know that the pion has a half-life of 2.6 x 10^-8 seconds. During this time, it travels Show more…

What is the total distance traveled by the object during the first 3 seconds? (A) $15 \mathrm{~m}$ (B) $20 \mathrm{~m}$ (C) $25 \mathrm{~m}$ (D) $30 \mathrm{~m}$
From the given graph the total distance travelled by the body in $30 \mathrm{~s}$, (a) $200 \mathrm{~m}$ (b) $250 \mathrm{~m}$ (c) $300 \mathrm{~m}$ (d) $400 \mathrm{~m}$
A body covers a distance of $4 \mathrm{~m}$ in $3^{\text {rd }}$ second and $12 \mathrm{~m}$ in $5^{\text {th }}$ second. If the motion is uniformly accelerated, how far will it travel in the next 3 seconds? (a) $10 \mathrm{~m}$ (b) $30 \mathrm{~m}$ $\begin{array}{ll}\text { (c) } 40 \mathrm{~m} & \text { (d) } 60 \mathrm{~m}\end{array}$
