The equation of motion of a body is $\frac{dv}{dt} = -4v + 8$,where $v$ is the velocity in $m/s$ and $t$ is the time in seconds. The initial velocity of the particle was zero. Then,

  • A
    the initial rate of change of acceleration of the particle is $8\,m/s^3$
  • B
    the terminal speed is $2\,m/s$
  • C
    Both $(a)$ and $(b)$ are correct
  • D
    Both $(a)$ and $(b)$ are wrong

$A$ particle starts from rest,accelerates at $2 \, m/s^2$ for $10 \, s$,then moves at a constant speed for $30 \, s$,and finally decelerates at $4 \, m/s^2$ until it stops. What is the total distance travelled by it in $m$?

$A$ body is at rest at $x=0$. At $t=0$,it starts moving in the positive $x-$direction with a constant acceleration. At the same instant,another body passes through $x=0$ moving in the positive $x$ direction with a constant speed. The position of the first body is given by $x_{1}(t)$ after time $t$ and that of the second body by $x_{2}(t)$ after the same time interval. Which of the following graphs correctly describes $(x_{1}-x_{2})$ as a function of time $t$?

During the first $18\,min$ of a $60\,min$ trip,a car has an average speed of $11\,m/s$. What should be the average speed for the remaining $42\,min$ so that the car has an average speed of $21\,m/s$ for the entire trip (in $,m/s$)?

Which of the following curves possibly represent one-dimensional motion of a particle? Choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Read each statement below carefully and state with reasons and examples,if it is true or false for a particle in one-dimensional motion:
$(a)$ With zero speed at an instant may have non-zero acceleration at that instant.
$(b)$ With zero speed may have non-zero velocity.
$(c)$ With constant speed must have zero acceleration.
$(d)$ With positive value of acceleration must be speeding up.
