Julie is walking around a track at a 2m/s for some exercise. she then decides to start jogging so she accelerates at a rate of 0.5m/s² for 3 seconds. how far did julie travel from the time she started to accelerate to the end of the 3 seconds?

The distance is 8.25 m.

Explanation:

Given  that,

Speed = 2 m/s

Acceleration = 0.5 m/s^2

Time = 3 sec

We need to calculate the distance

Using equation of motion

Where, u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

t = time

Put the value in the equation

Hence, The distance is 8.25 m.
