A cyclist driving at $5\, m s ^{-1}$ picks a velocity of $10\, m s ^{-1}$ over a distance of $50\, m$. Calculate $(i)$ acceleration $(ii)$ time in which the cyclist picks up the above velocity.
Given $u=5 m s ^{-1}, v=10 m s ^{-1}, S =50 m , a=?$
$t=?$
Applying $v^{2}-u^{2}=2 a S$
$(10)^{2}-(5)^{2}=2 \times a \times 50$
$75=100 a$
$a=0.75 m s ^{-2}$
$v=u+a t$
$10=5+0.75 \times t$
Therefore, $t=\frac{5}{0.75}=6.67 s$
If the displacement$-$time graph for a particle is parallel to time axis, what is the velocity of the particle ?
What is meant by uniform motion ? Can you think of an example of a body in uniforim motion ?
Area under speed$-$time graph is equal to the
Obtain a relation for the distance travelled by an object moving with a uniform acceleration in the interval between $4^{th}$ and $5^{th}$ seconds.
If the acceleration of a particle is constant in magnitude but not in direction, what type of path is followed by the particle ?
