A particle covers 10m distance in 2sec. if final velocity is 8m/s, find initial velocity​
klasskru [66]

Explanation:

It is given that a particle covers 10m in first 5s and 10m in next 3s. so using the equation of motion

Case I

s=ut+

20=10u+25a

4=2u+5a..............(1)

Case 2

In next 3s the particle covers more 10m distance. So

20=8u+

5=2u+8a.........(2)

On solving equation (1) and (2)

4=2u+5a

5=2u+8a

a=

Put the value of a in equation (1)

u=
