If a car starts from rest and moves with a uniform acceleration of 10ms-2 for ten seconds, the distance it covers in the last one second of its motion is
  • A.
    95m
  • B.
    100m
  • C.
    500m
  • D.
    905m
  • E.
    1000m
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation

Distance in 105, using, x = ut + (frac{1}{2})at2
x = (0 x 10) + ((frac{1}{2}) x 10 x 10 x 10) = 500m
distance in 9s; x – (0 x 9) + ((frac{1}{2}) x 10 x 9 x 9) = 405m
distance in last is = difference
= 500 – 405
= 95m
