    If a body starts from rest and travels \[110\,\,cm\] in the \[9th\] second, then acceleration of the body is:

    A) \[0.13m/{{s}^{2}}\]                        

    B) \[0.16m/{{s}^{2}}\]

    C)  \[0.18m/{{s}^{2}}\]                       

    D)  \[0.34m/{{s}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    The distance travelled by the body in nth second is given by                 \[{{s}_{n}}=u+\frac{1}{2}a(2n-1)\]                            ... (i) Since, body starts from rest, so\[u=0\]. Given,   \[{{s}_{n}}=110\,\,cm,\,\,n=9\] Substituting the values in Eq. (i), we get                 \[110=0+\frac{1}{2}a(2\times 9-1)\] or            \[110=\frac{a}{2}\times 17\] \[\therefore \]     \[a=\frac{2\times 110}{17}\approx 13\,\,cm/{{s}^{2}}\] or              \[a=0.13\,\,m/{{s}^{2}}\]
