Section D
12. Case study based question (4M)
When we consider objects moving along a straight line, different objects may take
different times to cover a given distance and the rate at which objects move can be
different. One simple of measuring the rate of motion of an object is to find out the
distance travelled by the object in unit time and this quantity is referred to as speed.
The rate of motion of an object can be more comprehensive if we specify the
direction of motion along with its speed. The quantity that specifies both these
aspects is called velocity.
12.1 The acceleration a in ms-2 of a body, starting from rest varies with time
t(in sec) following the equation a = 3t+4. The velocity of the body at time t=2s will be
a. 10 ms-1
b. 18 ms-1
c. 14 ms-1
d. 26 ms-1
12.2 For the following acceleration vs time graph, the corresponding velocity
vs displacement graph is
a B c d
12.3 The displacement-time graph of a moving object is a straight line. Then,
a. its acceleration may be uniform
b. its velocity may be uniform
c. its acceleration may be variable
d. both its velocity and acceleration may be uniform
12.4 When a body is dropped from a tower, then there is an increase in its
a. Mass
b. Velocity
c. Acceleration
d. potential energy
Section E( 5 )
13. From the top of a multi-storeyed building, 39.2 m tall, a boy projects a stone
vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 9.8 m/s such that it finally drops to the
ground.
a. When will the stone reach the ground?
b. When will it pass through the point of projection ?
c. What will be its velocity before striking the ground ? Take g = 9.8 m/s2.
OR
Deduce the equations for uniformly accelerated motion by using integration
technique:
The velocity of a particle is given by the equation, v=2t² + 5 ms-1. Find
a. the change in velocity of the particle during the time interval between t₁ =2 s
and t₂ = 4 s
b. The average acceleration during the same interval and
c. The instantaneous acceleration at t₂ = 4 s.
