Solution

The correct option is C 62.5 m
Given Final Speed, v=90 kmh1=25 ms1
Time taken t=5 s
Using first equation of motion, v=u+at
Acceleration of the car a=vut=2505(u=0 as body starts from rest)
=5 ms2
Thus, the distance covered by the car
S=ut+12at2 (Using second equation of motion)
S=0+12×5×(5)2
(u=0 as body starts from rest)
S=62.5 m
