Ravi told his friend that his house is $1 \,km$ toward south from the main Post Office. Express displacement and the distance moved by the friend from the Post Office when he arrives at Ravi's house. Mention the reference point chosen by you.
Slope of a velocity -time graph gives
The following table show os the positon of three persons between $8.00\, am$ to $8.20\, am$.
Time | Position (in $km$) | ||
Person $A$ | Person $B$ | Person $C$ | |
$8.00 \,am$ | $0$ | $0$ | $0$ |
$8.05 \,am$ | $4$ | $5$ | $10$ |
$8.10\, am$ | $13$ | $10$ | $19$ |
$8.15 \,am$ | $20$ | $15$ | $24$ |
$8.20\, am$ | $25$ | $20$ | $27$ |
$(i)$ Who is moving with constant speed ?
$(ii)$ Who has travelled maximum distance between $8.00\, am$ to $8.05\, am$ ?
$(iii)$ Calculate the average speed of person $'A^{\prime}$ in $k m h^{-1}$
Starting from rest a scooter acquires a velocity of $36\, km h^{-1}$ in $10 \,s$ and then brakes are applied it takes $20\, s$ to stop. Calculate acceleration and distance travelled.
What does the slope of a displacement$-$time graph represent ? Can displacement$-$time sketch be parallel to the displacement axis ? Give reason to your answer.
