Question

if a truck starts from rest and its has acceleration of 4m/s 2. for second ,calculate its final velocity .what will be the distance travelled by the truck during the time interval?​

Answer 1

The answer is given below

Explanation:

Let us assume the truck accelerates for 4 seconds.

Given that:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 (starts from rest),

acceleration (a) = 4 m/s²

time (t) = 4 s

Final velocity (v) = ?,

Distance (s) = ?

To calculate the final velocity, we use the formula:

v = u + at

Substituting values gives:

v = 0 + 4(4)

v = 0 + 16

v = 16 m/s

The final velocity is 16 m/s²

To calculate the distance traveled by the truck, we use the equation:

`s=ut+(1)/(2)at^2\\ Substituting\ values\ into\ the\ equation:\\s=0(4)+(1)/(2)(4)(4)^2\\s=0+2(16)\\s=0+32\\s = 32\ meters`

The distance traveled by the truck during the time interval is 32 meters
