प्रश्न
Read the statement below carefully and state, with reason and example, if it is true or false:
A particle in one-dimensional motion with positive value of acceleration must be speeding up.
पर्याय
True
False
उत्तर
This statement is False.
Explanation:
A particle in one-dimensional motion with a positive value of acceleration is not necessarily speeding up. The particle will speed up only if its velocity and acceleration are in the same direction. If the velocity and acceleration are in opposite directions (for example, if the particle is moving in the negative direction while the acceleration is positive), the particle is actually slowing down.

The given figure gives a speed-time graph of a particle in motion along a constant direction. Three equal intervals of time are shown. In which interval is the average acceleration greatest in magnitude? In which interval is the average speed greatest? Choosing the positive direction as the constant direction of motion, give the signs of v and a in the three intervals. What are the accelerations at the points A, B, C and D?
On a long horizontally moving belt (Fig. 3.26), a child runs to and fro with a speed 9 km h–1 (with respect to the belt) between his father and mother located 50 m apart on the moving belt. The belt moves with a speed of 4 km h–1. For an observer on a stationary platform outside, what is the
