Kinematics Question 371

Question: A car, starting from rest, accelerates at the rate through a distance S, then continues at constant speed for time t and then decelerates at the rate f2 to come to rest. If the total distance traversed it’s 15 S, then

Options:

A) S=16ft2

B) S=ft

C) S=14ft2

D) S=172ft2

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

distance from A to B = S=12ft1 distance from B to C = (ft1)t distance from C to D = u22a=(ft1)22(f/2)

ft12=2S

S+ft1t+2S=15S

ft1t+12S ..(i)

12ft12=S Dividing (i) by (ii), we get t1=t6

S=12f(t6)2=ft272
