The body, moving uniformly accelerated from a state of rest, traveled 4.8 m in 4 s.

The body, moving uniformly accelerated from a state of rest, traveled 4.8 m in 4 s. What way did it travel in the fourth second?

V0 = 0 m / s.

t = 4 s.

S = 4.8 m.

t3 = 3 s.

S4 -?

The distance traveled by the body in the fourth second S4 will be the difference: the distance traveled in four seconds S and the distance traveled in three seconds S3: S4 = S – S3.

S3 = V0 * t3, + a * t3 ^ 2/2.

Since V0 = 0 m / s, then S3 = a * t3 ^ 2/2.

The acceleration of the body a is found from the formula: S = a * t ^ 2/2.

a = 2 * S / t ^ 2.

S3 = 2 * S * t3 ^ 2/2 * t ^ 2 = S * t3 ^ 2 / t ^ 2.

S3 = 4.8 m * (3 s) ^ 2 / (4 s) ^ 2 = 2.7 m.

S4 = 4.8 m – 2.7 m = 2.1 m.

Answer: the body passed the distance S4 = 2.1 m in the fourth second.
