Answer:

It will take 10 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the formula of motion,

v = u + at

Here, v = Final speed of an object

u = initial speed

a = Acceleration by which the speed is increasing

t = Duration or time

Now substitute the values given in the question,

80 = 50 + 3t

3t = 30

t = 10 hours

Therefore, after 10 hours speed of the bus will be 80 mph.
