- distance covered during the application of brakes.

उत्तर
Initial velocity = u = 36 kmh−1
= u = `36xx5/18` ms−1 = 10 ms−1
Final velocity = v = 0
Time = t = 2s
(i) Retardation = a = ?
v = u + at
0 = 10 + a (2)
2a = −10
a = `(-10)/2` = −5 ms−2
(ii) Distance covered S =?
v2 − u2 = 2aS
(0)2 − (10)2 = 2(−5) S
−10S = −100
S = `100/10`
S = 10 m

Give a scientific reason.
When an object falls freely to the ground, its acceleration is uniform.
Draw velocity – time graph for the following situation:
When a body is moving with variable velocity, but uniform retardation.
Draw velocity – time graph for the following situation:
When a body is moving with variable velocity and variable acceleration.
From the diagram given below, calculate acceleration.
Define acceleration.
A car traveling at 60 km/h, stops on applying brakes in 10 seconds. What is its acceleration?
A car accelerates to a velocity of 30 m/s in 10 s and then decelerates for 20 s so that it stops. Draw a velocity-time graph to represent the motion and find:
Distance travelled
A bus can accelerate with an acceleration of 1 m/s2 . Find the minimum time for the bus to attain the speed of 100 km/s from 50 km /s.
An object can be moving with uniform speed but with variable 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.
