The position of an object moving along the x-axis is given by, \(x=a+bt^2\), where \(a=8.5 \) m, \(b=2.5\) ms–2, and \(t\) is measured in seconds. Its velocity at \(t=2.0\) s will be:
1. \(13\) m/s
2. \(17\) m/s
3. \(10\) m/s
4. \(0\)
The position of an object moving along \(x\)-axis is given by \(x=a+bt^2\), where \(a=8.5\) m, \(b=2.5 \text{ ms}^{-2}\) and \(t\) is measured in seconds. Its average velocity between \(t=2.0\) s and \(t=4.0\) s is:
1. | \(10\) m/s | 2. | \(15\) m/s |
3. | \(20\) m/s | 4. | \(25\) m/s |
A car is moving along a straight line, say OP in the figure. It moves from O to P in \(18\) s and returns from P to Q in \(6.0\) s. The average velocity and average speed of the car in going from O to P and back to Q respectively are:
1. \(10\) m/s & \(10\) m/s
2. \(20\) m/s & \(30\) m/s
3. \(20\) m/s & \(20\) m/s
4. \(10\) m/s & \(20\) m/s
A man throws some balls with the same speed vertically upwards one after the other at an interval of \(2\) seconds. What should be the speed of the throw so that more than two balls are in the sky at any time? (Given \(g = 9.8\) m/s2)
1. | \(19.6\) m/s | More than
2. | \(9.8\) m/s | At least
3. | \(19.6\) m/s | Any speed less than
4. | \(19.6\) m/s | Only with a speed of
If a ball is thrown vertically upwards with speed \(u\), the distance covered during the last \(t\) seconds of its ascent is:
1. \(ut\)
2. \(\frac{1}{2}gt^2\)
3. \(ut-\frac{1}{2}gt^2\)
4. \((u+gt)t\)
A particle starts from rest with constant acceleration. The ratio of space-average velocity to the time-average velocity is:
where time-average velocity and space-average velocity, respectively, are defined as follows:
1. | \(\frac{1}{2}\) | 2. | \(\frac{3}{4}\) |
3. | \(\frac{4}{3}\) | 4. | \(\frac{3}{2}\) |
For a particle, displacement time relation is given by; . Its displacement, when its velocity is zero will be:
1. \(2\) m
2. \(4\) m
3. \(0\) m
4. none of the above
A body starts falling from height \(h\) and if it travels a distance of \(\frac{h}{2}\) during the last second of motion, then the time of flight is (in seconds):
1. \(\sqrt{2}-1\)
2. \(2+\sqrt{2}\)
3. \(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}\)
4. \(\sqrt{3}+2\)
If a body travels some distance in a given time interval, then for that time interval, its:
1. | Average speed ≥ |Average velocity| |
2. | |Average velocity| ≥ Average speed |
3. | Average speed < |Average velocity| |
4. | |Average velocity| must be equal to average speed. |
The displacement \(x\) of a particle varies with time \(t\) as \(x = ae^{-\alpha t}+ be^{\beta t}\), where \(a,\) \(b,\) \(\alpha,\) and \(\beta\) are positive constants. The velocity of the particle will:
1. | \(\alpha\) and \(\beta.\) | be independent of
2. | go on increasing with time. |
3. | \(\alpha=\beta.\) | drop to zero when
4. | go on decreasing with time. |
