Question

5. A bus starting from rest accelerates in a straight line at a constant rate of 3m/s2 for 8s. Calculate the distance travelled by the bus during this time interval.

Answer 1

Answer:

d = 96 meters

Explanation:

a = acceleration

t = time

d = distance

$d = \frac{1}{2} \times a \times {t}^{2}$

$d = \frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times {8}^{2}$

$d = 96$
