$A$ bullet fired into a target loses one-third of its velocity after travelling a distance $x$ meters into the target. If the bullet comes to rest by travelling a further distance $x^{\prime}$,then the ratio $\frac{x^{\prime}}{x}$ is

  • A
    $\frac{2}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{4}{5}$
  • D
    $\frac{4}{9}$

The velocity $v$ of a particle as a function of its position $x$ is expressed as $v = \sqrt{c_1 - c_2 x}$,where $c_1$ and $c_2$ are positive constants. The acceleration of the particle is

The displacement of a particle starting from rest at $t=0$ is given by $s=9 t^2-2 t^3$. The time in seconds at which the particle will attain zero velocity is (in $s$)

An object moves in a straight line with deceleration whose magnitude varies with velocity as $3 v^{2/3}$. If at an initial point,the velocity is $8 \,m/s$,then the distance travelled by the object before it stops is (in $\,m$)

For a train engine moving with a speed of $20 \; m/s$,the driver must apply brakes at a distance of $500 \; m$ before the station for the train to come to rest at the station. If the brakes were applied at half of this distance,the train engine would cross the station with a speed of $\sqrt{x} \; m/s$. The value of $x$ is $..............$ (Assuming the same retardation is produced by the brakes).

$A$ body $A$ starts from rest with an acceleration $a_{1}$. After two seconds,another body $B$ starts from rest with an acceleration $a_{2}$. If they travel equal distances in the fifth second after the start of $A$,the ratio $a_{1}: a_{2}$ will be equal to:
