Name the physical quantity obtained by dividing ‘Distance travelled’ by ‘Time taken’ to travel that distance.
A train starting from Railway Station attains a speed of 21 m/s in one minute. Find its acceleration.
If a sprinter runs a distance of 100 metres in 9.83 seconds, calculate his average speed in km/h.
A train starting from rest moves with a uniform acceleration of 0.2 m/s2 for 5 minutes. Calculate the speed acquired and the distance travelled in this time.
A car is moving on a straight road with uniform acceleration. The speed of the car varies with time as follows :
Time (s) : 0 2 4 6 8 10
Speed (m/s) : 4 8 12 16 20 24
Draw the speed-time graph by choosing a convenient scale. From this graph :

(1) Calculate the acceleration of the car.
(2) Calculate the distance travelled by the car in 10 seconds.
When is a body said to be in motion?
Figure shows the displacement of a body at different times .

Calculate the average velocity during the time interval 5 s to 9 s ,
[Hint : From 5 s to 9 s , displacement = 7 m - 3m = 4m]
The velocity-time graph of a moving body is given below in Figure

Displacement in each part AB, BC and CD.
A body projected vertically up with a velocity of 10 m/s reaches a height of 20 m. If it is projected with a velocity of 20 m/s, then the maximum height reached by the body is:
Distinguish between speed and velocity.
