प्रश्न

Give an example of a body which covers a certain distance, but its displacement is zero.

टीपा लिहा

उत्तर

Yes, displacement of a body can be zero even if the distance covered by it is not zero. For example, if a body moves in a circle, then displacement of the body in one rotation is zero but the distance covered by it in one rotation = 2πr, where r is the radius of the circle in which the body is moving.

An object is dropped from rest at a height of 150 m and simultaneously another object is dropped from rest at a height of 100 m. What is the difference in their heights after 2s if both the objects drop with the same accelerations? How does the difference in heights vary with time?


Using the following data, draw time - displacement graph for a moving object:

Time (s) 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16
Displacement (m) 0 2 4 4 4 6 4 2 0

Use this graph to find average velocity for the first 4 s, for the next 4 s and for the last 6 s.
