A student is standing at a distance of $50\,metres$ from the bus. As soon as the bus begins its motion with an acceleration of $1\,ms^{-2}$, the student starts running towards the bus with a uniform velocity $u$. Assuming the motion to be along a straight road, the minimum value of $u$, so that the student is able to catch the bus is.........$ms^{-1}$

A particle starting from rest and moves with constant acceleration travels a distance $x$ in first $2$ seconds and a distance $y$ in next two seconds, then

On what factors, does the stopping distance depend ?

A particle starts moving from rest in a straight line with constant acceleration. After time $t_0$, acceleration changes its sign (just opposite to the initial direction), remaining the same in magnitude. Determine the time from the beginning of motion in which the particle returns to the initial position.
