Question

A body, starting from rest, moves in a straight line with a constant acceleration a for a time interval t during which it travels a distance s1. If continues to move with the same acceleration for the next time interval tduring which it travels a distance s2. The relation between s1 and s2 is

Solution

Correct option is

s2 = 3s1

 

Since the initial velocity is zero, the distance travelled in the first time interval t is  

         

             

The velocity of the body at the end of this time interval is v = 0 + at = at. This is the initial velocity for the next time interval t during which the body travels a distance.
