Answer:


\huge\boxed{\sf S = 100\ m}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Initial velocity =
V_i = 10 m/s

Acceleration = a = 4 m/s²

Time = t = 5 s

Required:

Distance = S = ?

Formula:


\displaystyle S = V_i t + (1)/(2) at^2 (Second equation of motion)

Solution:

Plug in the above given values.

S = (10)(5) + 1/2 (4)(5)²

S = 50 + (2)(25)

S = 50 + 50

S = 100 m
