The relation between time and distance is given by , where α and β are constants. The retardation, as calculated based on this equation, will be (assume v to be velocity):
1.
2.
3.
4.
The position of a particle moving in the XY plane at any time t is given by metres. Select the correct statement about the moving particle from the following.
1. The acceleration of the particle is zero at t = 0 second
2. The velocity of the particle is zero at t = 0 second
3. The velocity of the particle is zero at t = 1 second
4. The velocity and acceleration of the particle are never zero
A body moves from rest with a constant acceleration of 5 m/s2. Its instantaneous speed (in m/s) at the end of 10 sec is
(1) 50
(2) 5
(3) 2
(4) 0.5
The displacement of a particle starting from rest (at t = 0) is given by . The time in seconds at which the particle will attain zero velocity again, is
(1) 2
(2) 4
(3) 6
(4) 8
The motion of a particle is described by the equation where a = 15 cm and b = 3 cm/s2. Its instantaneous velocity at time 3 sec will be
