Answer:
Here,
Initial velocity(u)=0 m/s
acceleration(a)=1.5m/s
time(t)=0.5s
Now,
distance covered(s)=ut+(1/2)at^2
=0*0.5+(1/2)*1.5*0.5*0.5
=0+(1/2)*0.375
=0+0.1875
=0.1875(nearly 0.19)
Hence,0.19 is correct answer.
Explanation:
Mass and energy are closely related. Due to mass–energy equivalence, any object that has mass when stationary (called rest mass) also has an equivalent amount of energy whose form is called rest energy, and any additional energy (of any form) acquired by the object above that rest energy will increase the object's total mass just as it increases its total energy. For example, after heating an object, its increase in energy could be measured as a small increase in mass, with a sensitive enough scale.
It's always a good idea to start with the definition of the thing you're trying to find.
This problem is just trying to find out whether you KNOW the definition of acceleration. You may know it, but you haven't used it yet.
Average acceleration = (change in velocity) divided by (total time).
Change in velocity = (end value) minus (start value)
Change in velocity = (20m/s) - 0
Change in velocity = 20 m/s
Time = 10 s
Average acceleration = (20m/s)/(10s)
Average acceleration = 2 m/s^2
