  • A sprinter runs a 100 m race in a straight line. He accelerates from the starting block at a constant acceleration of 2.5 m s–2 to reach his maximum speed of 10 m s–1. He maintains this speed until he crosses the finish line. Which time does it take the sprinter to run the race? A 4s B 10s C 12s D 20s. Answer is C, how?

Ans = D
How??
since the magnitude of them are all equal and you require a resultant torque (turning effect) i think D is right as there is upward force and a downward force so no resultant force but since 1 is acting upward from the centre and 1 is from the side they wont cancel the movement as they aint in the same direction so it'll cause a resulatant torque
