Question

A truck starting from rest accelerates at a rate of 4 m/s. The truck's initial position is 0 m.What is the velocity of the truck after 8 seconds?

Answer 1

The velocity of the truck after 8 seconds is 32 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the velocity of the truck after 8 seconds, we can use the equation:

final velocity = initial velocity + (acceleration * time)

Since the truck starts from rest, its initial velocity is 0 m/s and the acceleration is 4 m/s². Plugging in these values, we get:

final velocity = 0 + (4 * 8)

final velocity = 32 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the truck after 8 seconds is 32 m/s.
