Final answer:

The distance traveled by the mobile is 12960005 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the distance traveled by a mobile with an initial velocity of 5 m/s, a constant acceleration of 2 m/s², and a time of 1 hour, we can use the formula:

d = v₀t + (1/2)at²

Where:

  • d is the distance
  • v₀ is the initial velocity
  • t is the time
  • a is the acceleration

Plugging in the given values, we have:

d = (5 m/s)(1 hr) + (1/2)(2 m/s²)(1 hr)²

d = 5 m + (1/2)(2 m/s²)(3600 s)²

d = 5 m + (1/2)(2 m/s²)(12960000 s²)

d = 5 m + 1/2(25920000 m)

d = 5 m + 12960000 m

d = 12960005 m
