Answer:

Distance traveled in 5 seconds = 47.75 meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have equation of motion ,
s= ut+(1)/(2) at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.


In this the velocity of body = 2.3 m/s, acceleration = 2.9
m/s^2, we need to calculate displacement when t = 5 seconds.


s= 2.3*5+(1)/(2) *2.9*5^2=47.75m

So, distance traveled in 5 seconds = 47.75 meter.
