उत्तर

Given :
Initial velocity of the car (u) = 0 m/s
Final velocity of the car (v) = 20 m/s
time taken = 10s
Acceleration = ?
Formula:

Acceleration = \(\frac {20– 0}{10}\) = \(\frac {20}{10}\)

Acceleration of the car = 2 m/s2

Exercise Problem.

A racing car has a uniform acceleration of 4 ms–2. What distance it covers in 10 s after the start?


A car is being driven at a speed of 20ms-1 when brakes are applied to bring it to rest in 5 s. The deceleration produced in this case will be ______.


Assertion: A positive acceleration of a body can be associated with the slowing down of the body.
Reason: Acceleration is a vector.


Assertion: When a body is subjected to a uniform acceleration, it is always moving in a straight line.
Reason: Motion may be straight-line motion or circular motion.
