Departing from a stop, the tram moves with an acceleration of 0.3 m / s.

Departing from a stop, the tram moves with an acceleration of 0.3 m / s. At what distance from the stop the tram speed will reach 15 m / s.

To find the distance from the stop at which a given tram will be located, we use the formula: S = Vк ^ 2 / 2а.

The values of the variables: Vк – the speed that the tram must reach (Vк = 15 m / s); a – constant acceleration of the tram (a = 0.3 m / s2).

Calculation: S = Vk ^ 2/2 = 15 ^ 2 / (2 * 0.3) = 375 m.

Answer: The given tram will reach a speed of 15 m / s at a distance of 375 m from the stop.
