Given below are two statements:
Assertion (A): | Position-time graph of a stationary object is a straight line parallel to the time axis. |
Reason (R): | For a stationary object, the position does not change with time. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
A particle moves along a path ABCD as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the displacement of the particle from A to D is:
1. (5+10√2)m
2. 10 m
3. 15√2 m
4. 15 m
A drunkard walking in a narrow lane takes 5 steps forward and 3 steps backward, followed again by 5 steps forward and 3 steps backward, and so on. Each step is 1 m long and requires 1 s. There is a pit on the road 13 m away from the starting point. The drunkard will fall into the pit after:
1. 37 s
2. 31 s
3. 29 s
4. 33 s
If a body travels some distance in a given time interval, then for that time interval, its:
1. | Average speed ≥ |Average velocity| |
2. | |Average velocity| ≥ Average speed |
3. | Average speed < |Average velocity| |
4. | |Average velocity| must be equal to average speed. |
A car moves from X to Y with a uniform speed vu and returns to X with a uniform speed vd. The average speed for this round trip is:
1. | 2vdvuvd+vu | 2. | √vuvd |
3. | vdvuvd+vu | 4. | vu+vd2 |
The figure gives the (x-t) plot of a particle in a one-dimensional motion. Three different equal intervals of time are shown. The signs of average velocity for each of the intervals 1, 2 and 3, respectively are:
1. | −,−,+ | 2. | +,−,+ |
3. | −,+,+ | 4. | +,+,− |
The coordinate of an object is given as a function of time by x=7t−3t2, where x is in metres and t is in seconds. Its average velocity over the interval t=0 to t=4 is will be:
1. 5 m/s
2. −5 m/s
3. 11 m/s
4. −11 m/s
A particle moving in a straight line covers half the distance with a speed of 3 m/s. The other half of the distance is covered in two equal time intervals with speeds of 4.5 m/s and 7.5 m/s respectively. The average speed of the particle during this motion is:
1. 4.0 m/s
2. 5.0 m/s
3. 5.5 m/s
4. 4.8 m/s
The displacement (x) of a point moving in a straight line is given by; x=8t2−4t. Then the velocity of the particle is zero at:
1. | 0.4 s | 2. | 0.25 s |
3. | 0.5 s | 4. | 0.3 s |
If the velocity of a particle is v=At+Bt2, where A and B are constants, then the distance travelled by it between 1 s and 2 s is:
1. | 3A+7B | 2. | 32A+73B |
3. | A2+B3 | 4. | 3A2+4B |
