Mass of body (m) = 50 kg

Acceleration (a) = 8 m/sec2

Time (t) = 15 seconds

According to kinematics equation, assuming acceleration is constant,

S = u t + 1/2 a t

Where

S = Distance travelled by the body (m)

u = Initial velocity (m/s)

a = Acceleration (m/s2)

t = Time taken

As body starts from rest u = 0 i.e. Initial velocity.

S = 0 + (1/2) × 8 × 15 = 900m

S = 900 metres

Distance is 900 metres.
