A body starts from rest and moves with a uniform acceleration of 2 m/s². What will be its velocity and displacement at the end of 10 seconds?

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s (starts from rest)
Acceleration (a) = 2 m/s²
Time (t) = 10 s

Velocity after 10 seconds

Using the formula:

$v = u + at$ $v = 0 + (2 × 10)$ $v = 20 \text{ m/s}$

Displacement after 10 seconds

Using the formula:

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$ $s = 0 + \frac{1}{2} × 2 × (10)^2$ $s = 1 × 100$ $s = 100 \text{ meters}$
