Answer:
800 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Acceleration (a) = Velocity (v) / Time(t)
a = (v-u) /t
where, v = final speed
u = initial speed
2m/s² = (40m/s - 0m/s)/t
that is, from rest is no speed.
2m/s² = (40m/s) /t
t = (40m/s)/2m/s²
t = 20 s
hence, the car has accelerated for 20 s.
From,
Velocity (v) = Displacement (d) /time(t)
displacement is the distance the car has travelled.
40m/s = d/20s
d = 40m/s × 20s
d = 800 m
