1. A particle is moving up an inclined plane.

Its velocity changes from 25m/s to 10m/s in 5


seconds

 Initial velocity (u) = 25 m/s


 Final velocity (v) = 10 m/s
 Time taken (t) = 5 seconds.

Using first equation of motion,

 v = u + at

where,

 v is final velocity
 u is initial velocity
 a is acceleration
 t is time taken

On substituting the values we get,

→ 10 = 25 + a (5)

→ 10 - 25 = a × 5

→ -15 = a × 5

→ a = -15/5

→ a = -3 m/s²

Therefore, The required acceleration of the particle is -3 m/s²

2. The velocity changes from 35m/s to 60m/s in 3 seconds. What is its acceleration?

a=v-u/t

a={(60-35)/3}m/s²

=25/3 m/s²

=8.34 m/s²
3. A body covered a distance of 4 metre along a semicircular path. Calculate the magnitude
of displacement of the body, and the ratio of distance to displacement?
To calculate the magnitude of displacement of the body, we need to consider the geometry of a
semicircular path. The displacement is the straight-line distance between the initial and final
positions of the body.

In a semicircular path, the distance covered along the arc is equal to half the circumference of the
full circle. The circumference of a circle is given by the formula C = 2πr, where r is the radius.

Let's assume that the radius of the semicircular path is denoted as r. Since the distance covered
along the arc is 4 meters, we have:

Distance = 1/2 * Circumference of the full circle

4 = 1/2 * 2πr

4 = πr

Solving for r, we get:

r = 4/π

Now, the magnitude of the displacement is equal to the diameter of the full circle. Since the
diameter is twice the radius, we have:

Displacement = 2r

Displacement = 2 * (4/π)

Displacement = 8/π

To calculate the ratio of distance to displacement, we divide the distance by the displacement:

Ratio = Distance / Displacement

Ratio = 4 / (8/π)

Ratio = 4 * (π/8)

Ratio = π/2

Therefore, the magnitude of displacement of the body is 8/π meters and the ratio of distance to
displacement is π/2.
4. A particle moving with an initial velocity of 8m/s is subjected to a uniform acceleration
of 2.5m/s 2. Find the displacement in the next 4 sec.
Initial velocity (u) = 8 m/s
Acceleration (a) = 2.5 m/s
To find : The displacement in the next 4 sec?
Using 2nd equation of motion,

 s = ut + ½at²

where,

 s is displacement
 u is Initial velocity
 a is acceleration
 t is time

On substituting the values we get,


→ s = 8 × 4 + 1/2 (2.5)(4)²
→ s = 32 + 1/2 (2.5)(16)
→ s = 32 + 1/2 (40)
→ s = 32 + 20
→ s = 52 m
Therefore, 52 m is the required displacement of the particle in
the next 4 sec.

5. A train is travelling at a speed of 40 km/ h. Brakes are applied so as to produce a uniform


acceleration of −0.5 m /s 2. Find how far the train will go before it is brought to rest.

Step 1 of 2 :
Write down initial velocity , final velocity , acceleration
By the given

Final velocity = v = 0
Acceleration = a = - 0.5 m/s²
Step 2 of 2 :
Calculate distance train will go before it is brought to rest
Let distance = s
From 3rd equation of motion we get

Hence , the train will go 625 m before it is brought to rest


6. A Truck covers 90km at a uniform speed of 30km/hr. what should be its speed for the
next 120km if the average speed for the entire journey is 60km/h?
To find the average speed for the entire journey, we need to
calculate the total time taken for the entire journey.
Time taken to cover the first 90 km:
Distance = 90 km
Speed = 30 km/hr
Time = Distance / Speed = 90 km / 30 km/hr = 3 hours
Time taken to cover the next 120 km:
Distance = 120 km
Speed = x km/hr
Time = Distance / Speed = 120 km / x km/hr = 120/x hours
Total time taken for the entire journey = Time taken for the
first 90 km + Time taken for the next 120 km
Total time = 3 hours + 120/x hours = (3x + 120) / x hours
Average speed for the entire journey = Total distance / Total
time
60 km/hr = (90 km + 120 km) / [(3x + 120) / x] km/hr
Simplifying the equation:
60 = (210x) / (3x + 120)
Cross-multiplying:
60(3x + 120) = 210x
180x + 7200 = 210x
30x = 7200
x = 7200 / 30
x = 240
Therefore, the truck should have a speed of 240 km/hr for the
next 120 km in order to have an average speed of 60 km/hr for
the entire journey.

7. A stone is thrown in a vertically upward direction with a velocity of 15 m/s. If the


acceleration of the stone during its motion is 8m /s 2 in the downward direction, what
will be the height attained by the stone and how much time will it take to reach there?

Using the vertical motion equations:


v = u + at
where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the
acceleration, and t is the time.
At the highest point, the velocity will be 0. So, we can find the
time it takes to reach this point using:
0 = 15 - 8t
t = 15/8 s
Now, we can use the equation:
s = ut + 1/2 at^2
where s is the displacement (height) of the stone. Substituting
the values we get:
s = 15/8 * 15/8 + 1/2 * 8 * (15/8)^2
s = 14.06 meters
Therefore, the height attained by the stone is 14.06 meters and
it takes 1.875 seconds to reach there.
