$A$ horse rider covers half the distance with $5\,m/s$ speed. The remaining part of the distance was travelled with speed $10\,m/s$ for half the time and with speed $15\,m/s$ for the other half of the time. The mean speed of the rider averaged over the whole time of motion is $\frac{x}{7}\,m/s$. The value of $x$ is

    $25$
  • B
    $20$
  • C
    $26$

$A$ particle moving along a straight line covers the first half of the distance with a speed of $3 \, m \, s^{-1}$. The other half of the distance is covered in two equal time intervals with speeds of $4.5 \, m \, s^{-1}$ and $7.5 \, m \, s^{-1}$ respectively. The average speed of the particle during the motion is:

Assertion $(A)$: The angle between acceleration and velocity of a body in one-dimensional motion is always zero. Reason $(R)$: One-dimensional motion is along a straight line.

Choose the correct statement.

Two masses of $3.4 \text{ kg}$ and $2.5 \text{ kg}$ are accelerated from an initial speed of $5 \text{ m/s}$ and $12 \text{ m/s}$,respectively. The distances traversed by the masses in the $5^{th}$ second are $104 \text{ m}$ and $129 \text{ m}$,respectively. The ratio of their momenta after $10 \text{ s}$ is $\frac{x}{8}$.
