A body is thrown vertically upward with velocity u, the greatest height h to which it will rise is,
विकल्प
`"u"/"g"`
`"u"^2/(2"g")`
`"u"^2/"g"`
`"u"/(2"g")`

उत्तर
`"u"^2/(2"g")`
At highest point, v = 0
Using v2– u2 = 2as, we get
0 − u2 = 2(−g)h ( ∵ a = −g and s = h)
or h = `"u"^2/(2"g")`

What is meant by the term acceleration ? State the SI unit of acceleration.
A train starting from stationary position and moving with uniform acceleration attains a speed of 36 km per hour in 10 minutes. Find its acceleration.
A bus increases its speed from 36 km/h to 72 km/h in 10 seconds. Its acceleration is :
Differentiate between uniform acceleration and variable acceleration.
The figure shows the displacement - time graph for four bodies A, B C and D. In each case state what information do you get about the acceleration (zero, positive or negative).

Derive the following equations for uniformly accelerated motion:
(i) v = u + at
(ii) `"S = ut" + 1/2 "at"^2`
(iii) v2 = u2 + 2aS
where the symbols have their usual meanings.
When is the negative acceleration?
