Name the physical quantity which gives us an idea of how slow or fast a body is moving.
State whether speed is a scalar or a vector quantity. Give reason for your choice.
Arrange the following speed in increasing order (keeping the least speed first):
An athlete running with a speed of 10 m/s.
A train travels the first 15 km at a uniform speed of 30 km/h; the next 75 km at a uniform speed of 50 km/h; and the last 10 km at a uniform speed of 20 km/h. Calculate the average speed for the entire train journey.
The tip of seconds’ hand of a dock takes 60 seconds to move once on the circular dial of the clock. If the radius of the dial of the clock be 10.5 cm, calculate the speed of the tip of the seconds’ hand of the clock. `("Given" π= 22/7)`.
Which of the following can sometimes be 'zero' for a moving body?
