A particle starts to move in a straight line from a point with a velocity 10 ms-1 and acceleration -2.0 ms-2. Its position at t = 5 s will be :
- 5 m
- 10 m
- 20 m
- 25 m

Answer
25 m
Reason ā Given,
u = 10 ms-1
a = -2.0 ms-2
t = 5 s
Using, S = ut + at2
S = (10 x 5) + x (-2) x 52 = [50 - 25] = 25 m
Hence, its position at t = 5 s will be 25 m
