AI Generated Solution

To find the distance covered by a body in the nth second when it starts from rest with a uniform acceleration 'a', we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the motion The body starts from rest, which means its initial velocity \( u = 0 \). The body accelerates uniformly with acceleration \( a \). ### Step 2: Use the formula for distance The distance covered in the nth second can be calculated using the formula: \[ ...
