Arace car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly to a speed of 40 m/s in 8. seconds. How far will the car travel during the 8 seconds?
meters
Type the correct answer, then press Enter.

160 m

Explanation:

For computing the distance first we have to determine the acceleration which is shown below:

v = u + at

where,

v = 0 = initial velocity

u = 40 = uniformly to a speed

t = 8 = time

So, the a is

= 40 ÷ 8

= 5 m/s

Now we have to use the distance formula i.e

d = ut + 1 ÷ 2 at^2

= 1 ÷2 × 5 × 8^2

= 160 m

Basically we have to applied the above formulas so that the distance could come
