Question


A ship was moving at a speed of 500 ms1 and it attained speed of 600 ms1 in 5 seconds. What is the acceleration of the ship?


Options:
A .   20 ms2
B .   30 ms2
C .   10 ms2
D .   50 ms2
Answer: Option A
:
A
Given, initial velocity, u=500 ms1, final velocity, v=600 ms1 and time taken, t = 5 s
Let acceleration be 'a'.
From first equation of motion,
v = u + at
600=500+a×5
 a=6005005 = 20 ms2
