Answer:
Distance, d = 216 meters
Explanation:
Given that,
Initial velocity of the truck, u = 6 m/s
Acceleration of the truck, \(a=2\ m/s^2\)
Time taken, t = 12 seconds
Let d is the distance travelled by the truck in the given time. It can be calculated using second equation of motion as :
\(d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\)
\(d=6(12)+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times (12)^2\)
d = 216 meters
So, the distance covered by the truck during this time is 216 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
