प्रश्न
If a stone and a pencil are dropped simultaneously in vacuum from the top of a tower, then which of the two will reach the ground first? Give reason.

उत्तर
In vacuum, both will reach the ground simultaneously because acceleration due to gravity is same (=g) on both objects.

Give one example of a situation in which a body has a certain average speed but its average velocity is zero.
Define velocity. What is the SI unit of velocity ?
Describe the motion of a body which is accelerating at a constant rate of 10 m s–2. If the body starts from rest, how much distance will it cover in 2 s ?
Derive the formula s= `ut+1/2at^2` , where the symbols have usual meanings.
How can you find the following?
Velocity from acceleration – time graph.
Can you suggest a real-life example about the motion of a body from the following velocity – time graph?
A packet is dropped from a stationary helicopter, hovering at a height ‘h’ from ground level, reaches the ground in 12s. Calculate
- the value of h
- final velocity of packet on reaching the ground. (Take g = 9.8 ms−2)
Draw a velocity versus time graph of a stone thrown vertically upwards and then coming downwards after attaining the maximum height.
An object starting from rest travels 20 m in the first 2 s and 160 m in the next 4 s. What will be the velocity after 7 s from the start?
When will you say a body is at uniform acceleration?
