प्रश्न
A body starts from rest with uniform acceleration 2 m s-2. Find the distance covered by the body in 2 s.

उत्तर
Initial velocity u = 0
Acceleration a = 2 m/s2
Time t = 2 s
Let 'S' be the distance covered.
Using the second equation of motion,
S = ut + (1/2) at2
S = 0 + (1/2) (2) (2) 2
S = 4 m

A car starts from rest and moves along the x-axis with constant acceleration 5 ms–2 for 8 seconds. If it then continues with constant velocity, what distance will the car cover in 12 seconds since it started from the rest?
Assertion: If the displacement of the body is zero, the distance covered by it may not be zero.
Reason: Displacement is a vector & distance is a scalar quantity.
