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. \(8 a\)
The relation \(3t = \sqrt{3x} + 6\) describes the displacement of a particle in one direction where \(x\) is in metres and \(t\) in seconds. The displacement, when velocity is zero, is:
| 1. | \(24\) metres | 2. | \(12\) metres |
| 3. | \(5\) metres | 4. | zero |
The average velocity of a body moving with uniform acceleration travelling a distance of \(3.06\ \text{m}\) is \(0.34\ \text{ms}^{–1}\). If the change in velocity of the body is \(0.18\ \text{ms}^{–1}\) during this time, its uniform acceleration is:
1. \(0.01\ \text{ms}^{–2}\)
2. \(0.02\ \text{ms}^{–2}\)
3. \(0.03\ \text{ms}^{–2}\)
4. \(0.04\ \text{ms}^{–2}\)
The equation of displacement for any particle is \(𝑠 = 3 𝑡^ 3 + 7 𝑡^ 2 + 14 𝑡 + 8\ \text{m}\). Its acceleration at time \(t = 1\) second is:
1. \(10\ \text{m/s}^2\)
2. \(16\ \text{m/s}^2\)
3. \(25\ \text{m/s}^2\)
4. \(32\ \text{m/s}^2\)
The position of a particle moving along the \(x\)-axis at certain times is given below:
| \(t (\text{s})\) | \(0\) | \(1\) | \(2\) | \(3\) |
| \(x (\text{m})\) | \(-2\) | \(0\) | \(6\) | \(16\) |
Which of the following describes the motion correctly?
1. Uniform, accelerated
2. Uniform, decelerated
3. Non-uniform, accelerated
4. There is not enough data for generalisation
Consider the acceleration, velocity and displacement of a tennis ball as it falls to the ground and bounces back. Directions of which of these changes in the process ?
1. Velocity only
2. Displacement and velocity
3. Acceleration, velocity and displacement
4. Displacement and acceleration
The displacement of a particle moving in a straight line is given by \(𝑠 = 2 𝑡^2 + 2 𝑡 + 4\) where \(s\) is in meters and \(t\) in seconds. The acceleration of the particle is:
1. \(2\ \text{m/s}^2\)
2. \(4\ \text{m/s}^2\)
3. \(6\ \text{m/s}^2\)
4. \(8\ \text{m/s}^2\)
A body \(A\) starts from rest with an acceleration \(a_1\). After \(2\) seconds, another body B starts from rest with an acceleration \(a_2\). If they travel equal distances in the \(5^{th}\) second, after the start of \(A\), then the ratio \(a_1: a_2\) is equal to:
1. \(5: 9\)
2. \(5: 7\)
3. \(9: 5\)
4. \(9: 7\)
