Detailed Solution

A particle moves at a constant acceleration for 20 s after starting from rest. If it travels a distance X1, in the first 10 s and a distance X2, in the remaining 10 s, then none is correct in the given options.
We know that s=ut+12at2
Where s= distance, u= initial velocity, a= acceleration and t= time
Let “a” be the velocity at  t=1 sec
Then for the first 10 seconds, as the particle starts moving from rest then u= 0
  X1=0×t+12a×100
 X1 =50
Now after 10 seconds the velocity becomes 10a,
By using the formula v= u+at
  X2=10×a×10+12×a×100
         X2=150a
Therefore, X2=3X1
