A particle starts with an initial velocity of

2.5\,\mathrm{m/s}

along the positive

x

-direction and accelerates uniformly at

0.50\,\mathrm{m/s^2}

. (1) Find the distance travelled in the first two seconds. (2) How much time does it take to reach a velocity of

7.5\,\mathrm{m/s}

? (3) How much distance does it cover in reaching a velocity of

7.5\,\mathrm{m/s}
