A horse starts from rest and speeds up with constant acceleration. If it has gone a distance of 100 m at the point when it reaches a speed of 12 m/s, what is its acceleration?

Answer (2)

initial speed = 0m/s=u final speed= 12m/s=v distance travel= 100 m=s constant acceleration= a m/s*s
by using formula v v=u u+2as 12 12=0+2 a 100 a= 0.72 m/s s

The horse's acceleration is calculated using the equation of motion, resulting in an acceleration of 0.72 m/s². This means the horse increases its speed by 0.72 m/s every second until it reaches its final speed of 12 m/s while covering a distance of 100 m.
