प्रश्न
A truck running at 90 kmh−1, is brought to rest over a distance of 25 m. Calculate the retardation and time for which brakes are applied.
उत्तर
Initial velocity = u = 90 kmh−1 = `90xx5/18` ms−1
u = 25 ms−1
Final velocity = v = 0
Distance = S = 25 m
v2 − u2 = 2aS
(0)2 − (25)2 = 2a (25)
50a = −625
(retardation) a = `(-625)/50` = −12.5 ms−2
Now, v = u + at
0 = 25 + (−12.5)t
12.5t = 25
(Time) t = `25/12.5` = 2s

A space craft flying in a straight course with velocity of 75 km s-1 fires its rocket motors for 6.0 s. At the end of this time its speed is 120 km s-1 in the same direction.
Find
(i) The space craft's average acceleration while the motors were firing
(ii) The distance travelled by the space craft in the first 10 s after the rocket motors were started, the motors being in action for only 6 s.
When is the acceleration due to gravity positive?
What does a positive acceleration mean?
Can you use the relation [B1]?
Out of energy and acceleration, which one is a vector?
Sketch the shape of the velocity-time graph for a body moving with:
Uniform acceleration.
From the given v-t graph it can be inferred that an object is
State whether true or false. If false, correct the statement.
Acceleration can get negative value also.
An object can be moving with uniform speed but with variable acceleration.
Assertion: When a body is subjected to a uniform acceleration, it is always moving in a straight line.
Reason: Motion may be straight-line motion or circular motion.
