Answer
NB:
- speed, U is measure in m/s
- acceleration, a is measured in m/s²
-time t in seconds , s
Therefore conversation must be made
Speed U = 20km/hrs
=20km÷1hr
But 20km= 20×1000=20000m
1hr= 1×60min×60sec=3600s
U=20000÷3600=5.56m/s
a=30km/hrs
=30km÷1hr
But 30km=30×1000=30000
1hr=3600s
a=30000÷3600=8.33m/s²
From the equation of motion
S=Ut + ½ at².
Where s= distance
S = 5.56m/s × 20s + ½(8.33m/s²)(20s)²
S = 1777.3m
