Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Understand the Problem
The problem involves an automobile moving with uniform acceleration from rest. We are given that after traveling 100 meters, the automobile reaches a speed of \(10 \, \text{m/s}\). We need to find the speed of the automobile after it has traveled 400 meters.
Step 2: Use the Kinematic Equation
We will use the kinematic equation that relates initial velocity (\(v_0\)), final velocity (\(v\)), acceleration (\(a\)), and distance (\(s\)):
\[
v^2 = v_0^2 + 2as
\]
Since the automobile starts from rest, \(v_0 = 0\).
Step 3: Calculate the Acceleration
First, calculate the acceleration using the information that after 100 meters, the speed is \(10 \, \text{m/s}\):
\[
10^2 = 0 + 2a \times 100
\]
\[
100 = 200a
\]
\[
a = \frac{100}{200} = 0.5 \, \text{m/s}^2
\]
Step 4: Calculate the Final Velocity After 400 Meters
Now, use the same kinematic equation to find the velocity after 400 meters:
\[
v^2 = 0 + 2 \times 0.5 \times 400
\]
\[
v^2 = 400
\]
\[
v = \sqrt{400} = 20 \, \text{m/s}
\]
Final Answer
The speed of the automobile after traveling 400 meters is \(\boxed{20 \, \text{m/s}}\).
