Figure represents graphically the velocity of a car moving along a straight road over a period of 100 hours.
Calculate the acceleration along AB and the retardation along BC.

उत्तर

Acceleration along AB= (100 - 100)/(40 -20) = 0 ms-2
Retardation along CD= (100 - 50)/ (100 - 60) = 50/40 = 1.25 ms-2

A ball is rolling from A to D on a flat and smooth surface. Its speed is 2 cm/s. On reaching B, it was pushed continuously up to C. On reaching D from C, its speed had become 4 cm/s. It took 2 seconds for it to go from B to C. What is the acceleration of the ball as it goes from B to C?
