Q108 / 270 · NDA 2016 (Phase 1) · General Ability
A racing car accelerates on a straight road from rest to a speed of $50 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ in 25 s . Assuming uniform acceleration of the car throughout, the distance covered in this time will be
- Correct answerA625 m
- B1250 m
- C2500 m
- D50 m
Solution
$\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{a}=\mathrm{v} / \mathrm{t}=50 / 25=2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2 \\ & \mathrm{~S}=\mathrm{Ut}+1 / 2 \mathrm{at}^2 \\ & =0+1 / 2 \times 2 \times 25 \times 25 \\ & =625 \mathrm{~m}\end{aligned}$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
