    A body starting from rest moves with uniform acceleration. The distance covered by the body in time t is proportional to

    A)  \[\sqrt{t}\]                                        

    B)  \[{{t}^{3/2}}\]

    C)  \[{{t}^{2/3}}\]                                  

    D)  \[{{t}^{3}}\]

    E)  \[{{t}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: E

    Solution :

                    The distance covered by a body moving with uniform acceleration is given by \[s=ut+\frac{1}{2}a{{t}^{2}}\] As body starts from rest, therefore initial velocity u = 0 \[\therefore \] Distance covered by the body \[s=\frac{1}{2}a{{t}^{2}}\] or                            \[s\propto {{t}^{2}}\]
