From experimental data, the motion of a jet plane while traveling along a runway is defined by the v-t graph shown. Find the position s and the acceleration a when t = 40 s.

s = 2.80 km, a = 2.00 m/s2
s = 2.80 km, a = 0
s = 2.80 km, a = 2.67 m/s2
s = 2.80 km, a = 8.37 m/s2

But the velocity has increased to an extent and so acceleration should have increased before becoming constant. Shouldn't that still be the acceleration at 40s.

Firstly as V=CONST then a = 0;

Now for 's' we know that area under v & T gives distance change.

So, that (10 * 80)/2 + 30 * 80 = 2.8 km.

What you do is you have to control your hand first without typing?

a= 0
because const speed
