A body falls freely from a certain height. Show graphically the relation between the distance fallen and square of time. How will you determine g from this graph?
A car travels with uniform velocity of 25 m s-1 for 5 s. The brakes are then applied and the car is uniformly retarded and comes to rest in further 10 s. Find:
- The distance which the car travels before the brakes are applied,
- Retardation and
- The distance travelled by car after applying the brakes.
A cyclist driving at 36 kmh−1 stops his motion in 2 s, by the application of brakes. Calculate
- retardation
- distance covered during the application of brakes.
Write the SI unit of retardation.
Is it possible for an accelerating body to have constant speed?
The graph shows how the velocity of a scooter varies with time in 50 s.
Work out: Deceleration
From the given v-t graph it can be inferred that an object is

Assertion: The accelerated motion of an object may be due to change in magnitude of velocity or direction or both of them.
Reason: Acceleration can be produced only by change in magnitude of the velocity. It does not depend the direction.
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 ______.
When a body is said to be in
