Problem

A trolley is moving at 5 m/s5\,\text{m/s} on a straight track. It accelerates uniformly and after travelling 40 m40\,\text{m} its speed becomes 15 m/s15\,\text{m/s}. If the same acceleration continues, what will be its speed after it has moved another 20 m20\,\text{m}? (a) 20 m/s20\text{ m/s} (b) 16 m/s16\text{ m/s} (c) 22 m/s22\text{ m/s} (d) 18 m/s18\text{ m/s}
