a person complete a 100m race in 11s. He accelerates for the first two second and then maintains the velocity till the end. what is the maximum velocity reached

Respuesta :

The maximum velocity reached by the person is determined as 11.1 m/s.

Area under velocity - time graph

The area under the velocity time graph is the total displacement of the person.

Total Area = area of triangle formed during first 2 seconds + area of rectangle during the last 8 seconds

100 = ¹/₂(2v) + v(11 - 2)

where;

  • v is the maximum velocity

100 = v + 8v

100 = 9v

v = 100/9

v = 11. 1 m/s

Thus, the maximum velocity reached by the person is determined as 11.1 m/s.
