A bullet leaves a gun with a horizontal velocity of 100 m/s. Calculate the distance it would travel in 1.3 seconds.

a 1247 m
b 0.013 m
c 130 m
d 76.92 m

Respuesta :

Answer:

 Option C is the correct answer

Explanation:

  We have equation of motion , [tex]s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2[/tex], s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

  In this case initial velocity = horizontal velocity = 100 m/s, acceleration = 0 [tex]m/s^2[/tex], we need to calculate displacement when time = 1.3 seconds.

  Substituting

      [tex]s= 100*1.3+\frac{1}{2} *0*1.3^2 = 130 meter[/tex]

    So, bullet will travel a distance of 130 meter  in 1.3 seconds.

Option C is the correct answer
