Sagot :

Answer:

150m

Explanation:

The relation of speed/time and distance/time is a derivative/integral one, as in speed is the derivative of distance (the faster you go, the faster the distance changes, duh!).

So we need to compute the integral of speed over time from 0.0s to 5.0s.

The easiest way here is to compute the area under the line (it's going to be faster than computing the acceleration and using a formula of distance based on acceleration).

The area under the line is a trapezoid with "height" 5s, and the bases 10m/s and 50m/s. Using the trapezoid area formula of h*(a + b)/2

distance = 5s * (10m/s + 50m/s) / 2 = 5s * 60m/s / 2 = 5s * 30m/s = 150m

Alternatively, we can use the acceleration formula:

a = (50m/s - 10m/s)/5s = 40m/s / 5s = 8m/s^2

distance = v0 * t + a * t^2 / 2 = 10m/s * 5s + 8m/s^2 * (5s)^2 / 2 = 50m + 8m * 25 / 2 = 50m + 100m = 150m.
