A motorboat starting from rest on a lake accelerates in a straight line at a constant rate of 3.0 ms^(-2) for 8.0 s. How far does the boat travel during this time? |
Answer» SOLUTION :Here,` u = 0, t =8.0 s ,a = 3.0 ms ^(-2)` The DISTANCE travelled by the BOAT, `s = UT + 1/2 at ^(2)` ` = 0 xx 8 + (1)/(2) xx 3.0 ms ^(-2) (8s) ^(2) = 0 + 96 m = 96 m` The boat travels a distance of 96 m. |
