The distance covered by a body with uniform acceleration in time t starting from rest is
Correct answer: D. Both A and B
- A. at2/2
- B. Vt
- C. a2t/2
- D. Both A and B
Explanation
Given:- Uniform acceleration for a body starting from rest.- Time (t).The equations of motion for uniformly accelerated motion starting from rest are:- Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time)2 (from rest)- Velocity = (acceleration) (time) (starting from rest)Option (d) includes both the equation for distance (at2/2) and the equation for velocity (Vt) of a body with uniform acceleration starting from rest.

About Force and Motion
Displacement, velocity and acceleration describe motion, including the horizontal and vertical components of projectile motion. The chapter connects these quantities with Newton's laws, momentum and impulse, then applies conservation of momentum to collisions, distinguishing elastic collisions from inelastic ones.
