- distance covered by the car.

उत्तर
Initial velocity of car = u = 0
Final velocity of car = v = 180 kmh−1 = `180xx5/18` ms−1
v = 50 ms−1
Time = t = 4.5 s
v = u + at
50 = 0 + a (4.5)
4.5a = 50
a = `50/4.5` = 11.11 ms−2
(Distance) S = ut + `1/2` at2
S = `0(4.5)+1/2xx50/4.5xx(4.5)^2`
S = 0 + 25 × 4.5
S = 112.5 m

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?

A body falls towards the earth. Does it have positive or negative 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:
The Deceleration.
What is meant by negative acceleration?
An object can be moving with uniform speed but with variable acceleration.
