A girl running a race accelerates at $2.5\, m s ^{-2}$ for the first $4\, s$ of the race. How far does she travel in this time ?
Given $u=0, a=2.5 m s ^{-2}, t=4 s$ and $S =?$
Substituting the values in equation
$S=u t+\frac{1}{2} a t^{2},$ we have
$S=0 \times 4+\frac{1}{2} \times 2.5 \times 4^{2}=20 m$
Area under speed$-$time graph is equal to the
Can the distance travelled by a particle be zero when displacement is not zero ?
Explain with reason, which of the following graphs can possibly represent the motion of a particle observed in nature ?
A hiker rides $700\, m$ north, $300$ meast, $400 \,m$ north $600\, m$ west, $1200\, m$ south, $300\, m$ east and finally $100\, m$ north. Draw the path of motion of the biker. What distance did he cover ? What was his displacement ?
Name the physical quantity which corresponds to the rate of change of momentum.
