Answer:
From the graph, at t = 5 seconds, the velocity = 50 m/s as shown also in the above table
Please find attached the graph
Explanation:
The initial velocity of the body = m/s
The acceleration of the body = 8 m/s²
The velocity after 5 seconds can be determined graphically and by calculation as follows;
Graphically, we have the data points which can be found by the straight line relation v = u + a×t,
Where ,
a = The slope = 8 m/s²
u = 10 m/s = The y-intercept
Which gives;
v = 10 + 8 × t
The following data can be calculated for various time t;
Time, t Velocity , v
0, 10
1, 18
2, 26
3, 34
4, 42
5, 50
6, 58
From the graph, at t = 5 seconds, the velocity = 50 m/s as shown also in the above table
Please find attached the graph
By calculation, we have;
v = u + a×t
Where;
v = The final velocity
u = The initial velocity = 10 m/s
a = The acceleration = 8 m/s²
t = The time = 5 seconds
v = 10 + 5× 8 = 50 m/s.
