A body starts with a velocity of and accelerates uniformly at . What is its velocity after (in m/s)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. 24
**
- Step 1: Use the velocity-time relationship .
- Step 2: Setting , , and , we have .
- Step 3: Carry out the arithmetic: .
Answer
24.
Why not the others: '16' calculates only the velocity increase , omitting the initial velocity ; '80' multiplies instead of adding initial velocity to ; '10' adds acceleration directly to velocity () without multiplying by time .
