A small toy starts moving from the position of rest under a constant acceleration. If it travels a distance of 10 m in t s , the distance travelled by the toy in the next t s will be:

Step-by-step solution

Initial velocity of the particle is zero. Applying equation of motion, we get 10 = 1 2 × a × t 2 Let distance covered in next t   s is x . Then, 10 + x = 1 2 × a × 2 t 2 ⇒ 10 + x = 1 2 a t 2 × 4 ⇒ 10 + x = 10 × 4 ⇒ x = 30   m
