A motorcyclist moving with a uniform retardation takes 10s and 20s to travel successive quarter kilometre.How much further he will travel before coming to rest?

we need to use the formula " S = u×t - (1/2)a×t2 " , where u is initial velocity, a is retardation and t is time duration.
 
for first quarter kilometer travel in 10 s:-    250 = u×10 - (1/2)×a×100  or    u - 5 a = 25  ............(1)
first and second qurter kilometer travel in 30 s: -    500 = u×30 -(1/2)×a×900 or   3u - 45a = 50 ...........(2)
 
by solving (1) and (2), we get u = 175/6 m/s  and a = 5/6 m/s2 
 
total distance S travelled before coming rest :- S = (u×u)/(2×a) = begin mathsize 12px style 175 over 6 cross times 175 over 6 cross times 1 half cross times 6 over 5 space equals space 510.42 space m end style
since 500 m was already covered, 10.42 m distance will be travelled before coming to rest
