NEET Physics Uniform & Non-uniform Motion MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

A car travels along a straight road with a uniform acceleration. If its initial velocity is 10 m/s and it reaches a velocity of 30 m/s in 5 seconds, what is the distance covered by the car during this time?

A

100 m

B

80 m

C

50 m

D

125 m

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Using the kinematic equation for uniformly accelerated motion: v2=v02+2a(xx0)v^2 = v_0^2 + 2a(x-x_0). First, find acceleration: a=(vv0)/t=(3010)/5=4a = (v - v_0) / t = (30 - 10) / 5 = 4 m/s². Then use x=v0t+0.5at2x = v_0 t + 0.5 a t^2 to find distance: x=105+0.5452=100x = 10*5 + 0.5*4*5^2 = 100 m.
