Q.1 An object has moved through a distance. Can it have zero displacement? If yes, support your answer with an example.

Answer     

Yes, it can have zero displacement as for example, if a

person throws a ball upwards on a height ‘h’ and catch

back it then the


  Distance covered by the ball = h + h = 2h


   Displacement of the ball = 0.



 

Q.2 A farmer moves along the boundary of a square field

of side 10 m in 40 s. What will be the magnitude of

displacement of the farmer at the end of 2 minutes 20

second from his initial position?

Answer         

If the farmer starts from point A, then at the end of 2

min. and 20 sec. (=2 × 60 + 20) = 140. He will reach the

diagonally opposite corner C. The magnitude of

displacement of the farmer is 






So, displacement of farmer at the end of 2 min 20 sec

from his initial position is 14.14m.

Q.1 Distinguish between speed and velocity.

Answer    

 




Q.2 Under what condition is the magnitude of the

average velocity of an object equals to its average speed?

Answer        

When an object moves in one direction along a straight

line.



Q.3 What does the odometer of an automobile measure?

Answer          

Odometer of an automobile measure distance travelled by

the automobile.

 


Q.4 What does the path of an object look like when it is

in uniform motion?

Answer         

 Straight line path.

 


Q.5 During an experiment, a signal from a spaceship

reached the ground station in five minutes. What was the

distance of the spaceship from the ground station? The

signal travels at the speed of light, that is, 3 × 108 ms-1.


Answer

Q.1When will you say a body is in : (i) Uniform

acceleration, (ii) Non-uniform acceleration?

Answer      

(i) A body has uniform acceleration if its velocity changes

by an equal amount in equal intervals of time.


(ii) A body has non-uniform acceleration if its velocity

changes by unequal amount in equal interval of time.

 

Q.2 A bus decreases its speed from 80 kmh-1 to 60

 kmh1 in 5 s. Find acceleration of the bus.

Answer    

 
Q.3 A train starting from a railway station and moving with a uniform acceleration attains a speed of 40 kmh-1 in 10 kmh-1 minutes. Find its acceleration.
Answer

Q.1 What is the nature of the distance-time graphs for uniform and non-uniform motion of an object?

Answer       

(i) For uniform motion distance-time graph is a straight

line having constant gradient or slope as shown in figure





(ii) For non-uniform motion, distance-time graphs is a

curve having increasing gradient or slope or decreasing

gradient as shown in figures. 



Q.2 What can you say about the motion of an object

whose distance-time graph is a straight line parallel to the

time-axis?

Answer          

It means the distance of the object is not changing with

time. Thus, the object is stationary.




Q.3 What can you say about the motion of an object if its

speed-time graph is a straight line parallel to the time

axis?

Answer    

   The object has a uniform speed.




Q.4 What is the quantity which is measured by the area

occupied below the velocity-time graph?

Ans.      

Distance covered by the body in the given time interval.

OR

 Magnitude of the displacement of a body.

Q.1A bus starting from rest moves with a uniform

acceleration of 0.1 ms-2 for 2 minutes.

     

 Find: (a) the speed acquired, (b) distance travelled.


Answer    





Q.2A train is travelling at a speed of 90 kmh-1. Brakes

applied so as to produce a uniform acceleration of – 0.5

ms-1. Find how far the train will go before it is brought to

rest?

Answer    





Q.3 A trolley, while going down an inclined plane has an

acceleration of 2 cms-2. What will be its velocity 3 s after

the start?

Answer    









Q.4 A racing car has a uniform acceleration of 4 ms-2.

What distance will be cover in 10s after start?

Answer    




Q.5 A stone is thrown in a vertically upward direction

with a velocity of 5 ms-1. If the acceleration of the stone

during its motion is 10 ms-2 in the downward direction,

what will be the height attained by the stone and how

much time will it take to reach there.

Q.1 An athlete completes on round of a circular track of

diameter 200 m in 40 s. What will be the distance

covered and the displacement at the end of 2 minutes

and     20 second?

Answer    


 

Q.2 Joseph jogs from one end A to the other end B of a

straight 300 m road in 2 minutes 50 seconds and then

turn around and jogs 100 m back to point C in another 1

minute. What are Joseph’s average speed and velocities

in jogging (a) from A to B and (b) from A to C?

Answer    



  

Q.3 Abdul, while driving to school, computes the average

speed for his trip to be 20 kmh-1. On his return trip along

the same route, there is less traffic and the average speed

is 30 kmh-1. What is the average speed for Abdul’s trip?

Answer    




 
Q.4 A motor boar starting from rest on a lake accelerates

in a straight line at a constant rate of 3.0 ms-2 for 8.0 s.

How far does the boat travel during this time?

Answer    




Q.5 A driver of a car travelling at 52 kmh-1 applies the

brakes and accelerates uniformly in the opposite

direction. The car stops in 5s. Another driver going at 3

kmh-1 in  another car applies his breaks slowly and stop

in 10 s. On the same graph paper the speed versus time

graph for the two cars. Which of the two cars travelled

farther after the brakes were applied?

Answer

(b)  The straight part of the curve parallel to time axis represents the uniform motion of the car.    


Q.9 State which of the following situations are possible

and give an example for each of these:   

(a)An object with a constant acceleration but zero

velocity.

(b)An object moving in a certain direction with an

acceleration in the perpendicular direction. 

Answer        

(a)  When an object is thrown vertically upwards, it

velocity at the highest point is zero but it has constant

acceleration = 9.8 ms-2.

             

(b) An object moving in a circular path with uniform

speed its acceleration is always perpendicular to the

direction of the motion of the object.
