Practice question
Question
A body accelerates uniformly from 8m/s to 16m/s in 4s. What is the distance traveled?
Explanation
Find a=v−v0t=16−84=2m/s2. As per NCERT Chapter 3, equations v=u+at, s=ut+½at², v²=u²+2as describe uniformly accelerated motion. Applying correct signs and units gives 48 m as the result, so option B is correct.
