$A$ bead is moving in medium $1$ with a uniform speed of $1\, m/s$ for $2.5\, s$. Then it enters into air and falls freely under gravity for $2\, m$. Finally, it enters medium $2$ and immediately moves with uniform speed for $1.5\, s$. The total distance the bead has traveled is.........$m$ $(g = 10\, m/s^2)$: (in $.1$)

  • A
    $10$
  • B
    $20$
  • C
    $14$

Look at the graphs $(a)$ to $(d)$ carefully and state,with reasons,which of these cannot possibly represent one-dimensional motion of a particle.

$A$ particle moves along a straight line such that its displacement $x$ varies with time $t$ as $x = \alpha t^3 + \beta t^2 + \gamma$,where $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ are constants. $V_1$ is the average velocity of the particle during its journey between $t = 1 \ s$ and $t = 3 \ s$. $V_2$ is the instantaneous velocity of the particle at $t = 3 \ s$. The ratio $\frac{V_1}{V_2}$ is

$A$ parachutist drops freely from an aeroplane for $10\,s$ before the parachute opens. Then he descends with a net retardation of $2.5\,m/s^2$. If he bails out of the plane at a height of $2495\,m$ and $g = 10\,m/s^2$,his velocity on reaching the ground will be .......$m/s$.
