A bus is moving with a speed of 10 ms−1 on a straight road. A scooterist wishes to overtake the bus in 100 s. If the bus is at a distance of 1 km from the scooterist, with what minimum speed should the scooterist chase the bus?
1. 20 ms−1
2. 40 ms−1
3. 25 ms−1
4. 10 ms−1
A particle starts its motion from rest under the action of a constant force. If the distance covered in first 10 s is s1 and that covered in the first 20 s is s2, then
1. s2=2s1
2. s2=3s1
3. s2=4s1
4. s2=s1
The distance travelled by a particle starting from rest and moving with an acceleration 43ms-2, in the third second is
1. 6m
2. 4m
3. 103m
4. 193m
A particle shows a distance-time curve as given in this figure. The maximum instantaneous velocity of the particle is around the point:
1. B
2. C
3. D
4. A
A particle moves in a straight line with a constant acceleration. It changes its velocity from 10 ms-1 to 20 ms-1 while passing through a distance of 135 m in t seconds. The value of t is:
1. 10
2. 1.8
3. 12
4. 9
A particle moves a distance x in time t according to equation x=(t+5)-1. The acceleration of the particle is proportional to,
1. (velocity)3/2
2. (distance)2
3. (distance)-2
4. (velocity)2/3
A ball is dropped from a high rise platform at t=0 starting from rest. After 6s another ball is thrown downwards from the same platform with a speed v. The two balls meet at t=18 s. What is the value of v? (take g=10 ms-2)
1. 75 ms-1 2. 55 ms-1
3. 40 ms-1 4. 60 ms-1
A particle covers half of its total distance with speed v1 and the rest half distance with speed v2. Its average speed during the complete journey is
(1) v1v2v1+v2
(2) 2v1v2v1+v2
(3) 2v21v22v21+v22
(4) v1+v22
A boy standing at the top of a tower of 20 m height drops a stone. Assuming g=10 m/s2, the velocity with which it hits the ground will be:
1. 20 m/s
2. 40 m/s
3. 5 m/s
4. 10 m/s
The motion of a particle along a straight line is described by the equation; x=8+12t−t3, where x is in metre and t is in second. The retardation of the particle when its velocity becomes zero is:
1. | 24 ms−2 | 2. | zero |
3. | 6 ms−2 | 4. | 12 ms−2 |
