Question

A lion accelerates from 1.5 m/s to 1.0 m/s in 18.4 s. How far does the lion run during this time?

Answer 1

23 m

Step-by-step explanation:

If acceleration is uniform then

distance = ( average velocity ) × time

= ( (initial velocity +final velocity )/2 ) × time

= (( 1.5 + 1.0) /2 ) × 18.4

= ( 2.5/2 ) × 18.4

= 1.25× 18.4

= 23 m
