    Moving with uniform acceleration a body covers 150 m during 10 sec, so that it covers 24 m during the tenth sec. Then the acceleration of the body is

    A)  \[\text{2 m}/{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\]  

    B) \[~\text{3 m }/{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\]

    C)  \[\text{4 m}/{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\]

    D) \[~\text{6 m}/{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Let \[u\] be the initial velocity and \[a\] be the acceleration. Then,             \[s=ut+\frac{1}{2}a{{t}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \]    \[150=u\times 10+\frac{1}{2}a\times 100\]                ? (i) We know\[{{s}_{n}}=u+\frac{a}{2}(2n-1)\]             \[24=u+\frac{a}{2}(20-1)\]                    ... (ii) Solving equations (i) and (ii), we get\[a=\mathbf{2}\,\,\mathbf{m/}{{\mathbf{s}}^{\mathbf{2}}}\]
