Question

A ball starts from rest and accelerates at a constant rate of 1.0m/s to a final velocity of

Answer 1

Answer:

Time taken to reach final velocity = 5.5 second

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (Starting from rest)(u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration of ball (a) = 1 m/s²

Final velocity (v) = 5.5 m/s

Find:

Time taken to reach final velocity

Computation:

Using first equation of motion;

v = u + at

where,

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

t = time taken

5.5 = 0 + (1)(t)

5.5 = t

Time taken to reach final velocity = 5.5 second
