Question

· A car moves at 12 m/s and coasts up a hill with a

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of a car, u = 12 m/s

Aceleration, a = -1.6 m/s²

(a) The displacement of car after 6 seconds is :

$d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=12\times 6+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (-1.6)\times 6^2\\\\d=43.2\ m$

(b) The displacement of the car after 9 seconds is :

$d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=12\times 9+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (-1.6)\times 9^2\\\\d=43.2\ m$

Hence, this is the required solution.
