$A$ car accelerates from rest at a constant rate $\alpha$ for some time,after which it decelerates at a constant rate $\beta$ and comes to rest. If the total time elapsed is $t$,then the maximum velocity acquired by the car is

  • A
    $\left( \frac{\alpha^2 + \beta^2}{\alpha \beta} \right) t$
  • B
    $\left( \frac{\alpha^2 - \beta^2}{\alpha \beta} \right) t$
  • C
    $\frac{(\alpha + \beta) t}{\alpha \beta}$
  • D
    $\frac{\alpha \beta t}{\alpha + \beta}$

$A$ driver applies the brakes on seeing the red traffic signal $400 \ m$ ahead. At the time of applying brakes,the vehicle was moving with $15 \ m/s$ and retarding at $0.3 \ m/s^2$. The distance of the vehicle from the traffic light one minute after the application of brakes is: (in $m$)

$A$ body travels in a straight line from point $A$ to point $B$ with an initial velocity zero and uniform acceleration, covering $1 \,m$ during the first second and $39 \,m$ during the last second. The distance between $A$ and $B$ in metre is

If a body starts from rest and travels $120 \,cm$ in the $6^{th}$ second,what is the acceleration in $m/s^2$?

$A$ particle of mass $m$ is constrained to move on the $x$-axis. $A$ force $F$ acts on the particle. $F$ always points toward the position labeled $E$. For example,when the particle is to the left of $E$,$F$ points to the right. The magnitude of $F$ is a constant $F$ except at point $E$ where it is zero. The system is horizontal. $F$ is the net force acting on the particle. The particle is displaced a distance $A$ towards the left from the equilibrium position $E$ and released from rest at $t = 0$. What is the period of the motion?

$A$ particle is moving with constant acceleration $a$. The following graph shows the $v^{2}$ versus $x$ (displacement) plot. The acceleration of the particle is $...... \text{m/s}^{2}$.
