Sample Problem 1:
An airplane accelerates from rest on a runway at 5.50
m/s2for 20.25 s until it finally takes off the ground.
What is the distance covered before takeoff?
Given: Find:
a= 5.50 m/s
t= 20.25 s d=?
Vi= 0 m/s
Equation:
d= Vit + ½ 𝒂𝒕 𝟐
Solution:
d= (0 m/s)(20.25 s) + ½ (5.50 m/𝒔 )(20.25 𝒔)

d= ½ (2,255.34 m)
Answer:
d= 1,127.67 m
Sample Problem 2:
From rest, a jeepney accelerates uniformly over a
time of 3.25 seconds and covers a distance of 15 m.
Determine the acceleration of the jeepney.
Given: Find:
vi = 0 m/s
d = 15 m a=?
t = 3.25 s
Equation:
d= Vit + ½ 𝒂𝒕 𝟐
Solution:
15 m= (0 m/s)(3.25 s) + ½ (a)(3.25 𝒔) 𝟐

✓ Objects in free-fall also exhibit
uniformly accelerated motion.
✓ The acceleration due to gravity is
9.8 m/s neglecting
2 air
resistance.
✓ It is a constant acceleration for all
falling bodies, regardless of their
mass and weight.
✓ in general, uniformly accelerated
motion is the one in which the
acceleration of a body throughout
the motion is uniform. It can be
observed in either vertical or
horizontal dimension, and in two
dimensions.
