Give one example for each of the type of motion when
$(i)$ acceleration is in the direction of motion.
$(ii)$ acceleration is against the direction of motion.
$(iii)$ acceleration is uniform.
$(i)$ The motion of a car when it starts from rest and increases its velocity at a constant rate in a particular interval of time.
$(ii)$ The motion of a train when it slows down on approaching a station.
$(iii)$ The motion of a ball falling down freely.
A truck is moving on a straight road with uniform acceleration. The following table gives the speed of the truck at various instants of time.
Speed $\left(m s^{-1}\right)$ | $5$ | $10$ | $15$ | $20$ | $25$ | $30$ |
Time $(s)$ | $0$ | $10$ | $20$ | $30$ | $40$ | $50$ |
Draw the speed-time graph by choosing a convenient scale. Determine from it
$(i)$ the acceleration of truck
$(ii)$ the distance travelled by the truck in $50$ seconds.
Study the speed-time graph of a car given below and answer the questions that follow
$(i)$ What type of motion is represented by $OA$ ?
$(ii)$ What type of motion is represented by $A B$ ?
$(iii)$ What type of motion is represented by $BC$ ?
$(iv)$ What is the acceleration of the car from $O$ to $A$ ?
$(v)$ What is the acceleration of the car from $A$ to $B$ ?
$(vi)$ What is the retardation of car from $B$ to $C$ ?
If the displacement-time graph for a particle is parallel to displacement axis, what is the velocity of the particle ?
If the displacement$-$time graph for a particle is parallel to time axis, what is the velocity of the particle ?
Give an example of a body which covers a certain distance, but its displacement is zero
