Figure given below shows a velocity-time graph for a car starting from rest. The graph has three parts AB, BC and CD.
Which part of graph shows motion with uniform
(a) velocity (b) acceleration (c) retardation ?
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?
State if the following situation is possible:
A body moving horizontally with an acceleration in vertical direction.
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
Figure represents graphically the velocity of a car moving along a straight road over a period of 100 hours.
Calculate the acceleration along AB and the retardation along BC.
m/s2 is the unit of ______.
A boy throws a ball up and catches it when the ball falls back. In which part of the motion the ball is accelerating?
Assertion: A positive acceleration of a body can be associated with the slowing down of the body.
Reason: Acceleration is a vector.
Assertion: Position-time graph of a stationary object is a straight line parallel to the time axis.
Reason: For a stationary object, the position does not change with time.
When a body is said to be in
- uniform acceleration
- non–uniform acceleration?
