Question

A car starts from rest and moves in a straight line with a constant acceleration α. After time t0, brakes are applied which causes retardation of magnitude β and car finally stops. The distance travelled by the car is

Solution

The correct option is B αt20(α+β)2β
Distance traveled in t0 seconds
S1=0×t0+12αt2(u=0 which is at rest)
Final velocity after t0 seconds,
Vs=0+αt0
Final velocity after applying retardation β=0
Initial velocity =final velocity after t0 seconds
0=(Vs)22β(s2) (s2 is the distance traveled after β retardation)
s2=(Vs)22β
s2=α2t202β
s1+s2=12αt20(α+αβ)
=αt20(α+β)2β
