A car is travelling along the road at 8 m s^-1. It accelerates at 1 m s^-2. For a distance of 18 m. How fast is it then travelling?

The driver of a train travelling at 40 ms^-1 applies the brakes as a train enters a station. The train slowsdown at a rate of 2 ms^-2. The platform is 400 m long. Will the train stop in time?

Which one of the following is most likely not a case of uniform circular motion?

A. motion of the earth around the sun

B. motion of a toy train on a circular track

C. motion of a racing car on a circular track

D. motion of hours’ hand on the dial of a clock

A cheetah starts from rest, and accelerates at 2 m/s² for 10 seconds. Calculate :

(a) the final velocity

(b) the distance travelled.

Obtain a relation for the distance travelled by an object moving with a uniform acceleration in the interval between 4^th and 5^th second.

A car accelerates from 6 ms^–1 to 16 ms^–1 in 10 sec. Calculate (a) the acceleration and (b) the distance covered by the car in that time.

A bus increases its speed from 36 km/h to 72 km/h in 10 seconds. Its acceleration is :

Starting from rest at the top of an inclined plane a body reaches the bottom of the inclined plane in 4 second. In what time does the body cover one-fourth the distance starting from rest at the top?

A bus is moving with a speed 72 km/h can be stopped by brakes after at least 10 m. What will be the minimum stopping distance, if the same bus is moving at a speed of 144 km/h?

Derive the formula: ,where the symbols have usual meanings.
