उत्तर
Initial speed of car u = 50 km/h.
Final speed of car v = 55 km/h.
Time taken by car to attain this speed is = 1 sec. = 1/3600 hr.
Acceleration of the car is = (55 - 50 )X 3600 = 18000 kmh-2.

Distance travelled
A car starts from rest and it is travelling with a velocity of 20 m/s in 10 s. What is its acceleration?
Assertion: A positive acceleration of a body can be associated with the slowing down of the body.
Reason: Acceleration is a vector.
