Question

a motorboat starting from rest on a lake accelerates in a straight line at a constact rate of 3m/s square for 8sec.how far does the boat travel during this time?

Answer 1

so check it out you can just use the old formula
$v = \frac{d}{t}$
instead of deviding distance and time multiply velocity and time
so the formula would be
$v \times t = d$
$3ms \times 8sec = 24m$
