The average velocity of a body moving with uniform acceleration travelling a distance of 3.06 m is 0.34 ms–1. If the change in velocity of the body is 0.18ms–1 during this time, its uniform acceleration is
1. 0.01 ms–2
2. 0.02 ms–2
3. 0.03 ms–2
4. 0.04 ms–2
Equation of displacement for any particle is . Its acceleration at time t = 1 sec is

2. 5: 7
3. 9: 5
4. 9: 7
