Step 1: Identify the given values from the problem. The object takes off from rest, so the initial velocity (u) is 0 m/s. The acceleration (a) is 2 m/s^2. The final velocity (v) is 10 m/s. We need to find the distance covered (s). Step 2: Select the appropriate kinematic equation. The equation that relates initial velocity (u), final velocity (v), acceleration (a), and distance (s) is: v^2 = u^2 + 2as Step 3: Substitute the given values into the equation. (10 m/s)^2 = (0 m/s)^2 + 2 × (2 m/s^2) × s Step 4: Solve for the distance (s). 100 m^2/s^2 = 0 + 4 m/s^2 × s 100 m^2/s^2 = 4 m/s^2 × s s = 100 m^2/s^24 m/s^2 s = 25 m The distance covered is 25 m. This corresponds to option A. The final answer is A 25 m. That's 2 down. 3 left today — send the next one.
