    A particle moving with a uniform acceleration travels 24 A and 64m in the first two consecutive interval of 4s each. Its initial velocity will be

    A)  5 m/s   

    B)         3 m/s   

    C)         1 m/s   

    D)         4 m/s

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    From equation of motion, we have \[s=ut+\frac{1}{2}a{{t}^{2}}\] where s is displacement, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and c is time. When \[s=24\text{ }m,\text{ }t=4s,\] we have                                 \[24=4u+\frac{1}{2}a{{(4)}^{2}}\]                                              \[\Rightarrow \] \[24=4u+8a\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[6=u+2a\]                        ?(i) When body travels a total distance of \[24+64=88\] min 8 s, we get                 \[88=8u+\frac{1}{2}a{{(8)}^{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[88=8u+32a\]  \[\Rightarrow \]              \[11=u+4a\]                                       ?(ii) Solving Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get                                 \[u=1\,m/s\]
