Question

A motorcycle is capable of accelerating at 1.5 m/s2. Starting from rest, how far can it travel in 0.5 seconds?

a. 0.38 m
b. 0.44 m
c. 0.19 m
d. 0.66 m

Answer 1

0.19

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:
Here,
Initial velocity(u)=0 m/s
acceleration(a)=1.5m/s
time(t)=0.5s
Now,
distance covered(s)=ut+(1/2)at^2
=0*0.5+(1/2)*1.5*0.5*0.5
=0+(1/2)*0.375
=0+0.1875
=0.1875(nearly 0.19)
Hence,0.19 is correct answer.
