If a train travelling at \(72\ \text{km/h}\) is to be brought to rest in a distance of \(200\) metres, then its retardation should be:
1. \(20\ \text{ms}^{–2}\)
2. \(10\ \text{ms}^{–2}\)
3. \(2\ \text{ms}^{–2}\)
4. \(1\ \text{ms}^{–2}\)
The displacement of a particle starting from rest (at \(t = 0\)) is given by \(𝑠 = 6 𝑡^ 2 − 𝑡^ 3\). The time in seconds at which the particle will attain zero velocity again is:
1. \(2\)
2. \(4\)
3. \(6\)
4. \(8\)
Two cars \(A\) and \(B\) are at rest at the same point initially. If \(A\) starts with a uniform velocity of \(40\ \text{m/s}\) and \(B\) starts in the same direction with a constant acceleration of \(4\ \text{m/s}^2\), then \(B\) will catch \(A\) after how much time?
1. \(10\ \text{s}\)
2. \(20\ \text{s}\)
3. \(30\ \text{s}\)
4. \(35\ \text{s}\)
The motion of a particle is described by the equation \(𝑥 = 𝑎 + 𝑏 𝑡^ 2\) where \(a = 15\ \text{cm}\) and \(b = 3\ \text{cm/s}^2\). Its instantaneous velocity at time \(3\) seconds will be:
1. \(36\ \text{cm/s}\)
2. \(18\ \text{cm/s}\)
3. \(16\ \text{cm/s}\)
4. \(32\ \text{cm/s}\)
A body travels for \(15\) seconds starting from rest with constant acceleration. If it travels distances \(S_1,\ S_2\) and \(S_3\) in the first five seconds, the second five seconds and the next five seconds, respectively, the relation between \(S_1,\ S_2\) and \(S_3\) is:
1. \(𝑆_ 1 = 𝑆 _2 = 𝑆 _3\)
2. \(5𝑆_ 1 =3 𝑆 _2 = 𝑆 _3\)
3. \(𝑆_ 1 = \frac 13 𝑆 _2 = \frac 15 𝑆 _3\)
4. \(𝑆_ 1 =\frac 15 𝑆 _2 = \frac 13 𝑆 _3\)
A body is moving according to the equation \(𝑥 = 𝑎 𝑡 + 𝑏 𝑡^ 2 − 𝑐 𝑡^ 3\) where \(x\) is the displacement, and \(a,\ b\) and \(c\) are constants. The acceleration of the body is:

A particle travels 10 m in first 5 sec and 10m in the next 3 sec. Assuming constant acceleration what is the distance travelled in next 2 sec ?
1. 8.3 m
2. 9.3 m
3. 10.3 m
4. None of above
The distance travelled by a particle is proportional to the square of time; then the particle travels with:
1. Uniform acceleration
2. Uniform velocity
3. Increasing acceleration
4. Decreasing velocity
The velocity of a particle changes when:
1. Direction of velocity changes
2. Magnitude of velocity changes
3. Both of above
4. None of the above
The motion of a particle is described by the equation \(u = at\), where \(u\) is the velocity and \(a\) is a constant. The distance travelled by the particle in the first \(4\) seconds:
1. \(4 a\)
2. \(12 a\)
3. \(6 a\)
4. \(8 a\)
