Motion in a Straight Line

Q.1 Two towns A and B are connected by a regular bus service with a bus leaving in either direction
every T minutes. A man cycling with a speed of 20 km h -1 in the direction A to B notices that a bus goes
past him every 18 min in the direction of his motion, and every 6 min in the opposite direction. What is
the period T of the bus service and with what speed (assumed constant) do the buses ply on the road? 2

Q.2 A ball is dropped from a height of 90 m on a floor. At each collision with the floor, the ball loses one
tenth of its speed. Plot the speed-time graph of its motion between t = 0 to 12 s. 2

Q.3 The instantaneous speed is always equal to the magnitude of instantaneous velocity. Why? 2
Q.4 A police van moving on a highway with a speed of 30 km h -1 fires a bullet at a thief’s car speeding
away in the same direction with a speed of 192 km h -1 . If the muzzle speed of the bullet is 150 m s -1 ,
with what speed does the bullet hit the thief’s car? 3
Q.5 A boy standing on a stationary lift (open from above) throws a ball upwards with the maximum
initial speed he can, equal to 49 m s -1 . How much time does the ball take to return to his hands? If the
lift starts moving up with a uniform speed of 5 m s -1 and the boy again throws the ball up with the
maximum speed he can, how long does the ball take to return to his hands? 3

Q.6Figure shows the x-t plot of one-dimensional motion of a particle. Is it correct to say from the graph
that the particle moves in a straight line for t < 0 and on a parabolic path for t > 0? If not, suggest a
suitable physical context for this graph. 2

Q.7 Look at the graphs (a) to (d) carefully and state, with reasons, which of these cannot possibly
represent one-dimensional motion of a particle. 2
Q.8 Figure gives the x-t plot of a particle executing one-dimensional simple harmonic motion. Give the
signs of position, velocity and acceleration variables of the particle at t = 0.3 s, 1.2 s, – 1.2 s. 3

Q.9 Two stones are thrown up simultaneously from the edge of a cliff 200 m high with initial speeds of
15 m s -1 and 30 m s -1 . Verify that the graph shown in Figure correctly represents the time variation of
the relative position of the second stone with respect to the first. Neglect air resistance and assume that
the stones do not rebound after hitting the ground. Take g = 10 m s -2 . Give the equations for the linear
and curved parts of the plot. 3
Q.10 The speed-time graph of a particle moving along a fixed direction is shown in Figure. Obtain the
distance traversed by the particle between 2

a) t = 0 s to 10 s

b) t = 2 s to 6 s.

c) What is the average speed of the particle over the intervals in (a) and (b)?

Q.11 A food packet is released from a helicopter which is rising steadily at 2ms-1 . After two seconds (i)
what is the velocity of the packet? (ii) How far is it below the helicopter? 2
Take g = 9.8 ms-2

Q.12 Draw the following graphs(expected nature only) between distance and time of an object in case of
(a) for a body at rest (b) for a body moving with uniform velocity (c) for a body moving with constant
acceleration. 3
Q.13 A jet airplane travelling at the speed 500 km h–1 ejects its products of combustion at the speed of
1500 kmh–1 relative to the jet plane. What is the speed of the latter with respect to an observer on the
ground? 2

Q14. What is relative velocity? Define Freefall. 2

Q.15 Derive an equation of motion by graphical method and calculus method. 5

Q14 . ASSERTION REASON TYPE QUESTIONS 5


(a) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

(b) If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

(c) If assertion is true but reason is false


(d) If both assertion and reason are false

(e) If assertion is false but reason is true

1. Assertion: Displacement of a body may be zero when distance travelled by it is not zero.

Reason: The displacement is the longest distance between initial and final position.

2. Assertion: The relative velocity between any two bodies moving in opposite direction is equal to sum
of velocities of two bodies.

Reason: Sometimes relative velocity between two bodies is equal to difference in velocities of the two
bodies.

3. Assertion: A body may be accelerated even when it is moving at uniform speed.

Reason: When direction of motion of the body is changing then body may have acceleration

4.Assertion: A body falling freely many do so with constant velocity.

Reason: A body falls freely, when acceleration of the body is equal to acceleration due to gravity

5. Assertion: A physical quantity cannot be called as a vector if its magnitude is zero.

Reason: A vector has both magnitude and direction.
