A car travels from rest with a constant acceleration 'a' for 't' seconds. What is the average speed of the car for its journey if the car moves along a straight road?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The car starts from rest, so u = 0 The distance covered in time t
`s = 1/2 at^2`
average speed = total distane/time taken
` v = ((at^2)/(2))/(t)`
` = (at)/(2)`
