a body is moving with uniform acceleration of 10m/s2.if it starts from rest calculate its displacement after 5s
Physics
To calculate the displacement of a body with uniform acceleration, we can use the following formula:
s = ut + (1/2)at^2
where:
s = displacement
u = initial velocity (0 m/s as it starts from rest)
t = time taken (5 s)
a = acceleration (10 m/s^2)
Plugging in the values into the formula:
s = (0)(5) + (1/2)(10)(5^2)
s = 0 + (1/2)(10)(25)
s = 0 + 5(25)
s = 125 meters
Therefore, the displacement of the body after 5 seconds is 125 meters.
To calculate the displacement of a body moving with uniform acceleration, we can use the equation:
displacement = (initial velocity * time) + (0.5 * acceleration * time^2)
In this case, the body starts from rest, so the initial velocity is zero (0 m/s), the acceleration is given as 10 m/s^2, and the time is 5 seconds.
Plugging these values into the equation, we get:
displacement = (0 * 5) + (0.5 * 10 * 5^2)
= 0 + (0.5 * 10 * 25)
= 0 + 125
= 125 meters
Therefore, the displacement of the body after 5 seconds is 125 meters.
