The relation between time and distance is given by , where α and β are constants. The retardation, as calculated based on this equation, will be (assume v to be velocity) :

The displacement of a particle is given by . The initial velocity and acceleration are, respectively:
1. | \(\mathrm{b}, ~\mathrm{-4d}\) | 2. | \(\mathrm{-b},~ \mathrm{2c}\) |
3. | \(\mathrm{b}, ~\mathrm{2c}\) | 4. | \(\mathrm{2c}, ~\mathrm{-2d}\) |
The position \(x\) of a particle varies with time \(t\) as \(x=at^2-bt^3\). The acceleration of the particle will be zero at time \(t\) equal to:
1. | \(\dfrac{a}{b}\) | 2. | \(\dfrac{2a}{3b}\) |
3. | \(\dfrac{a}{3b}\) | 4. | zero |
A student is standing at a distance of 50 metres from the bus. As soon as the bus begins its motion with an acceleration of 1 ms–2, the student starts running towards the bus with a uniform velocity u. Assuming the motion to be along a straight road, the minimum value of u, so that the student is able to catch the bus is:
1. 5 ms–1
2. 8 ms–1
3. 10 ms–1
4. 12 ms–1
A body starts to fall freely under gravity. The distances covered by it in the first, second and third second will be in the ratio:
1. \(1:3:5\)
2. \(1:2:3\)
3. \(1:4:9\)
4. \(1:5:6\)
A particle moving in a straight line covers half the distance with a speed of \(3~\text{m/s}\). The other half of the distance is covered in two equal time intervals with speeds of \(4.5~\text{m/s}\) and \(7.5~\text{m/s}\) respectively. The average speed of the particle during this motion is:
1. \(4.0~\text{m/s}\)
2. \(5.0~\text{m/s}\)
3. \(5.5~\text{m/s}\)
4. \(4.8~\text{m/s}\)
A stone dropped from a building of height h and reaches the earth after t seconds. From the same building, if two stones are thrown (one upwards and other downwards) with the same velocity u and they reach the earth surface after t1 and t2 seconds respectively, then:

The velocity-time graph of a body moving in a straight line is shown in the figure. The displacement and distance travelled by the body in 6 seconds are, respectively, :
1. 8 m, 16 m
2. 16 m, 8 m
3. 16 m, 16 m
4. 8 m, 8 m
In the following graph, the distance travelled by the body in metres is:
1. | \(200\) | 2. | \(250\) |
3. | \(300\) | 4. | \(400\) |
Given below are two statements:
Assertion (A): | Position-time graph of a stationary object is a straight line parallel to the time axis. |
Reason (R): | For a stationary object, the position does not change with time. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
