An engine of a train,moving with uniform acceleration,passes a signal post with velocity $u$ and the last compartment passes the same signal post with velocity $v$. The velocity with which the middle point of the train passes the signal post is

  • A
    $\sqrt{\frac{v^{2}+u^{2}}{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{v-u}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{u+v}{2}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{v^{2}-u^{2}}{2}}$

$A$ particle moves in a straight line so that its displacement $x$ at any time $t$ is given by $x^2 = 1 + t^2$. Its acceleration at any time $t$ is $x^{-n}$ where $n = . . . . .$

If the displacement of an object moving along a straight line is proportional to the square of the time elapsed,does the object have a constant velocity or a constant acceleration?
