AIPMT PRELIMS 2008 Physics Equations of Motion MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11
The distance travelled by a particle starting from rest and moving with an acceleration 4/3 m/s², in the third second is -
A
10/3 m
B
19/3 m
C
6 m
D
4 m
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The distance traveled in the nth second is given by sₙ = u + a/2 (2n - 1). For u = 0, a = 4/3 m/s², and n = 3, s₃ =⁰⁺ (4/3)/2 (5) = 10/3 m.
