$A$ particle moves a distance $x$ in time $t$ according to the equation $x = (t + 5)^{-1}$. The acceleration of the particle is proportional to:

  • A
    $(velocity)^{3/2}$
  • B
    $(x)^2$
  • C
    $(x)^{-2}$
  • D
    $(velocity)^{2/3}$

$A$ 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:

If a body loses half of its velocity on penetrating $3 \, cm$ in a wooden block,then how much will it penetrate more before coming to rest? (in $cm$)

Stopping distance of vehicles: When brakes are applied to a moving vehicle,the distance it travels before stopping is called stopping distance. It is an important factor for road safety and depends on the initial velocity $(v_0)$ and the braking capacity,or deceleration,$-a$ that is caused by the braking. Derive an expression for stopping distance of a vehicle in terms of $v_0$ and $a$.
