The change in velocity of a motorbike is 54 kmh−1 in one minute. Calculate its acceleration in (a) ms−2 (b) kmh−2.
A truck running at 90 kmh−1, is brought to rest over a distance of 25 m. Calculate the retardation and time for which brakes are applied.
A motor bike running at 90 kmh−1 is slowed down to 18 kmh−1 in 2.5 s. Calculate
- acceleration
- distance covered during slow down.
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 acceleration and retardation.
A body has an acceleration of -3.5 ms-2. What is its retardation?
State whether true or false. If false, correct the statement.
Acceleration can get negative value also.
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.
What is meant by negative acceleration?
It is possible to have objects moving with uniform speed but variable acceleration.
