Starting from rest, a car accelerates uniformly at the rate of \(1~\text{m/s}^2\) for some time, then decelerates uniformly at the rate of \(2~\text{m/s}^2\) and finally comes to rest after a journey of \(1\) minute. The maximum possible speed of the car during this journey is:
1. \(10\) m/s
2. \(20\) m/s
3. \(30\) m/s
4. \(40\) m/s
A particle is moving along the \(x\)-axis such that its velocity varies with time as per the equation \(v = 20\left(1-\frac{t}{2}\right)\). At \(t=0\) particle is at the origin. From the following, select the correct position \((x)\) - time \((t)\) plot for the particle:
| 1. |  |
2. |  |
| 3. |  |

Suppose you are riding a bike with a speed of \(20~\text{m/s}\) due east relative to a person \(A\) who is walking on the ground towards the east. If your friend \(B\) walking on the ground due west measures your speed as \(30~\text{m/s}\) due east, then the relative velocity between two reference frames \(A\) and \(B\) is:
| 1. | the velocity of \(A\) with respect to \(B\) is \(5~\text{m/s}\) towards the east. |
| 2. | the velocity of \(A\) with respect to \(B\) is \(5~\text{m/s}\) towards the west. |
| 3. | the velocity of \(A\) with respect to \(B\) is \(10~\text{m/s}\) towards the east. |
| 4. | the velocity of \(A\) with respect to \(B\) is \(10~\text{m/s}\) towards the west. |
A helicopter moving vertically upwards releases a packet when it is at a certain height above the ground. The packet initially moves upwards for a time \(t_1\) and then falls downwards for a time \(t_2\) until it reaches the ground. Then:
| 1. | \(t_1<t_2\) | 2. | \(t_1=t_2\) |
| 3. | \(t_1>t_2\) | 4. | Data insufficient |
A body is moving along a straight line according to the equation of motion, \(x= t^{2} - 3 t + 4\), where \(x\) is in metre and \(t\) is in seconds. What is the acceleration of the body when it comes to rest?
| 1. | zero | 2. | \(2~\text{m/s}^2\) |
| 3. | \(\frac{3}{2}~\text{m/s}^2\) | 4. | \(1~\text{m/s}^2\) |
The displacement \((x)\) of a point moving in a straight line is given by; \(x=8t^2-4t.\) Then the velocity of the particle is zero at:
| 1. | \(0.4~\text s\) | 2. | \(0.25~\text s\) |
| 3. | \(0.5~\text s\) | 4. | \(0.3~\text s\) |
An elevator whose floor-to-ceiling height is \(12\) meters, moves upward with an acceleration of \(2.2~\text{m/s}^2.\) After \(1.5~\text s\) since starting, a bolt falls from its ceiling. The time taken by the bolt to reach the floor is:
1. \(1~\text{s}\)
2. \(2~\text{s}\)
3. \(\sqrt{2}~\text{s}\)
4. \(\sqrt{3}~\text{s}\)
