(B) When v-t graph is parallel to x-axis, the body is____________. (2 marks)
2. A) Explain with proper examples- ‘Motion’ is relative’.
B) Is it possible that displacement is zero but not the distance? Justify your answer. (3 marks)
C) Can displacement be zero? If yes, give two examples of such situations.
3. Identify the kind of motion in the following cases: . (3 marks)
a. (I) A car moving with constant speed turning around a curve (ii) An electron orbiting around nucleus.
(b) An artificial satellite is moving in a circular orbit of radius 36,000 km. Calculate its speed if it takes 24
hours to revolve around the earth.
4) A) farmer moves along the boundary of a square field of side 10 m in 40 s. What will be the magnitude
of displacement of the farmer at the end of 2 minutes 20 seconds from his initial position?
B) Draw a graph velocity versus time for a body starts to move with velocity 'u' under a constant
acceleration a for time t. Using this graph derive an expression for distance coverer’s’ in time’t’. (5 marks)
5. Draw velocity-time graphs for the following situations: (2 marks)
(a) When the body is moving with uniform velocity.
(c) When the body is moving with variable velocity and uniform deceleration.
6. On a 120 km track, a train travels the first 30 km at a uniform speed of 30 km/h. Calculate the speed with
which the train should move rest of the track so as to get the average speed of 60 km/h for the entire trip?
