Question

A falcon is diving at a speed of 30m/s. It accelerates at a rate of 40m/sand reaches a speed of

100m/s. Calculate the distance it travels during its acceleration.​

Answer 1

Reasd through the explanartion first :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial velocity, u = 30 m/s

Final velocity, v = 100 m/s

Acceleration, a = 40 m/s²

Distance traveled, s = ?

According to the 3rd equation of motion,

We know that,

v² - u² = 2as

So, putting all the values, we get

⇒ v² - u² = 2as

⇒ (100)² - (30)² = 2 × 40 × s

⇒ 10000 - 900 = 80s

⇒ 9100 = 80s

⇒ 9100/80 = s

⇒ s = 113.75 m.
