$A$ batsman hits a cricket ball which then rolls on a level ground. After covering a short distance,the ball comes to rest. The ball slows to a stop because

  • A
    the batsman did not hit the ball hard enough.
  • B
    velocity is proportional to the force exerted on the ball.
  • C
    there is no unbalanced force on the ball,so the ball would want to come to rest.
  • D
    there is a force on the ball opposing the motion.

An object of mass $100 \,kg$ is accelerated uniformly from a velocity of $5 \,m \,s^{-1}$ to $8 \,m \,s^{-1}$ in $6 \,s$. Calculate the initial and final momentum of the object. Also, find the magnitude of the force exerted on the object.

$A$ truck starts from rest and rolls down a hill with a constant acceleration. It travels a distance of $400 \, m$ in $20 \, s$. Find the force (in $N$) acting on it if its mass is $7 \, \text{tonnes}$ $(1 \, \text{tonne} = 1000 \, kg)$.

The following is the distance-time table of an object in motion:
Time in secondsDistance in metres
$0$$0$
$1$$1$
$2$$8$
$3$$27$
$4$$64$
$5$$125$
$6$$216$
$7$$343$

$(a)$ What conclusion can you draw about the acceleration? Is it constant, increasing, decreasing, or zero?
$(b)$ What do you infer about the forces acting on the object?

$A$ $8000 \,kg$ engine pulls a train of $5$ wagons,each of $2000 \,kg$,along a horizontal track. If the engine exerts a force of $40000 \,N$ and the track offers a friction force of $5000 \,N$,then calculate the net accelerating force (in $N$).

$A$ $8000 \,kg$ engine pulls a train of $5$ wagons,each of $2000 \,kg$,along a horizontal track. If the engine exerts a force of $40000 \,N$ and the track offers a friction force of $5000 \,N$,then calculate the acceleration (in $m/s^2$) of the train.
