प्रश्न
A car accelerates uniformly from a velocity of 18 km/h to 36 km/h in 15 min. What is its acceleration?

उत्तर
Initial velocity of car u = 18 km/hr.
Final velocity of car v= 36 km/hr.
Time taken by body = 15 min. = 1/4 hr
Acceleration of car a = ( v- u )/t = (36 - 18 ) X 4 = 72 kmh-2.

What do you understand about negative acceleration?
Assertion: A negative acceleration of a body can be associated with speeding up of the body.
Reason: Increase in the speed of a moving body is independent of its direction of motion.
