Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If a body is moving with a uniform acceleration of 2 m/s², what will be its velocity after 5 seconds if it starts from rest? (2023)
  • Step 1: Identify the initial velocity (u). Since the body starts from rest, u = 0 m/s.
  • Step 2: Identify the acceleration (a). The problem states that the acceleration is 2 m/s².
  • Step 3: Identify the time (t). The problem states that the time is 5 seconds.
  • Step 4: Use the formula for final velocity (v): v = u + at.
  • Step 5: Substitute the values into the formula: v = 0 + (2 m/s² × 5 s).
  • Step 6: Calculate the result: v = 0 + 10 m/s = 10 m/s.
  • Step 7: Conclude that the velocity after 5 seconds is 10 m/s.
  • Uniform Acceleration – Understanding how velocity changes over time when an object accelerates at a constant rate.
  • Kinematic Equations – Application of the kinematic equation v = u + at to solve for final velocity given initial conditions.
  • Initial Conditions – Recognizing that the initial velocity (u) is zero when the body starts from rest.
