If a body travels with uniform acceleration 5 ms for 5 sec and with uniform acceleration 10 m/s² for next 10 sec then its average acceleration in m/s² is?
If a body travels with uniform acceleration 5 m/s for 5 sec and with uniform acceleration 10 m/s² for next 10 sec then its average acceleration in m/s² is?
Given :-
Initial velocity of the body = 5 m/s
Initial time of the body = 5 sec
Final time of the body = 10 sec
Final acceleration = 10 m/s²
To Find :-
The Average acceleration = ?
Solution :-
At first assume that ;
By Given ;
u = 5 m/s
It is clear that the final acceleration is the change velocity within the given time , numerically ;
Putting the values we have ;
Now as Average velocity is the rate of change velocity upon rate of change of time . So ;

Now , Putting all the values we have ;
Henceforth , Our Required Answer is 20 m/s² .
Answer:
The initial velocity travelled is 625m
The accleration is α=10m/s

The time is t=5s
Apply the equation of motion
v=u+at
The velocity is v=0+10.5=50m/s.
The distance travelled in the first 5s is
