Question

5. A bus starting from rest accelerates in a straight line at a constant rate of 3m/s2 for 8s. Calculate the distance travelled by the bus during this time interval.

Answer 1

d = 96 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

a = acceleration

t = time

d = distance

`d = (1)/(2) * a * {t}^(2)`

`d = (1)/(2) * 3 * {8}^(2)`

`d = 96`
