Question
A ship was moving at a speed of 500 ms−1 and it attained speed of 600 ms−1 in 5 seconds. What is the acceleration of the ship?
Answer: Option A
:
A
Given, initial velocity, u=500 ms−1, final velocity, v=600 ms−1 and time taken, t = 5 s
Let acceleration be 'a'.
From first equation of motion,
v = u + at
600=500+a×5
⇒ a=600−5005 = 20 ms−2
