Question

A scooter is accelerated from rest at the rate of 8m/s . How long will it take to cover a distance of 32m?​

Answer 1

• Speed = 8 m/s
• Distance = 32 m

We need to find time

We know that ,

$\begin{gathered} {\underline{\boxed{ \rm {\red{Speed \: = \: \frac{Distance}{Time} }}}}}\end{gathered}$

So ,

$\begin{gathered} {\underline{\boxed{ \rm {\orange{Time \: = \: \frac{Distance}{Speed} }}}}}\end{gathered}$

Substuting the values

$\begin{cases} \large\rm{\purple{ {\leadsto} }} \: \: Time \: = \: \frac{32}{8} \\ \\ \large\rm{\purple{ {\leadsto} }} \: \: Time \: = \: \cancel\frac{32}{8} \\ \\ \large\rm{\purple{ {\leadsto} }} \: \: Time \: = \: 4 \: seconds \end{cases}$
