Question

A speedboat accelerates at 2m/s^2. If the boat starts from rest, how fast will the boat be traveling, in m/s, if it accelerates for 5s? Make sure you use the correct unit for your answer and do not put a space between the number and the unit.

Answer 1

The boat travels with a speed of 10m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given-

Acceleration, a = 2m/s²

Time, t = 5s

Speed, s = ?

We know,

`Acceleration = (speed)/(time) \\\\s = at`

`s = 5 * 2m/s\\s = 10m/s`

Therefore, Boat travels with a speed of 10m/s
