The displacement of a particle, moving in a straight line, is given by where s is in metres and t in seconds. The acceleration of the particle is
1. 2 m/s2
2. 4 m/s2
3. 6 m/s2
4. 8 m/s2
The velocity of a bullet is reduced from 200m/s to 100m/s while travelling through a wooden block of thickness 10cm. The retardation, assuming it to be uniform, will be
1. m/s2
2. m/s2
3. m/s2
4. m/s2
A student is standing at a distance of \(50\) metres from the bus. As soon as the bus begins its motion with an acceleration of \(1\) ms–2, the student starts running towards the bus with a uniform velocity \(u\). Assuming the motion to be along a straight road, the minimum value of \(u\), so that the student is able to catch the bus is:
1. \(5\) ms–1
2. \(8\) ms–1
3. \(10\) ms–1
4. \(12\) ms–1
An object accelerates from rest to a velocity of 27.5 m/s in 10 sec . Then find the distance covered by the object in the next 10 sec:
1. 550 m
2. 137.5 m
3. 412.5 m
4. 275 m
Speed of two identical cars are u and 4u at a specific instant. The ratio of the respective distances in which the two cars are stopped from that instant is:
1. 1 : 1
2. 1 : 4
3. 1 : 8
4. 1 : 16
A car, starting from rest, accelerates at the rate f through a distance S, then continues at a constant speed for time t and then decelerates at the rate to come to rest. If the total distance traversed is 15 S, then,

A man is 45 m behind the bus when the bus starts accelerating from rest with acceleration of 2.5 m/s2. With what minimum velocity should the man start running to catch the bus?
1. 12 m/s
2. 14 m/s
3. 15 m/s
4. 16 m/s
A 120 m long train is moving in a direction with speed 20 m/s. A train B moving with 30 m/s in the opposite direction and 130 m long crosses the first train in a time
1. 4 s
2. 36 s
3. 38 s
4. 5 s
A 210-meter long train is moving due north at a speed of 25 m/s. A small bird is flying due South a little above the train with a speed of 5m/s. The time taken by the bird to cross the train is
1. 6 s
2. 7 s
3. 9 s
4. 10 s
The distance between two particles is decreasing at the rate of \(6\) m/sec when they are moving in the opposite directions. If these particles travel with the same initial speeds and in the same direction, then the separation increases at the rate of \(4\) m/sec. It can be concluded that particles' speeds could be:
1. \(5\) m/sec, \(1\) m/sec
2. \(4\) m/sec, \(1\) m/sec
3. \(4\) m/sec, \(2\) m/sec
4. \(5\) m/sec, \(2\) m/sec
