Consider the acceleration, velocity and displacement of a tennis ball as it falls to the ground and bounces back. Directions of which of these changes in the process ?
1. Velocity only
2. Displacement and velocity
3. Acceleration, velocity and displacement
4. Displacement and acceleration
The displacement of a particle, moving in a straight line, is given by where s is in metres and t in seconds. The acceleration of the particle is

The velocity of a bullet is reduced from 200m/s to 100m/s while travelling through a wooden block of thickness 10cm. The retardation, assuming it to be uniform, will be
(1) m/s2
(2) m/s2
(3) m/s2
(4) m/s2
A particle starts from rest, accelerates at 2 m/s2 for 10s and then goes for constant speed for 30s and then decelerates at 4 m/s2 till it stops. What is the distance travelled by it?
(1) 750 m
(2) 800 m
(3) 700 m
(4) 850 m
A car, moving with a speed of 50 km/hr, can be stopped by brakes after at least 6m. If the same car is moving at a speed of 100 km/hr, the minimum stopping distance is
(1) 6m
(2) 12m
(3) 18m
(4) 24m
A student is standing at a distance of 50 metres from the bus. As soon as the bus begins its motion with an acceleration of 1 ms–2, the student starts running towards the bus with a uniform velocity u. Assuming the motion to be along a straight road, the minimum value of u, so that the student is able to catch the bus is:
1. 5 ms–1
2. 8 ms–1
3. 10 ms–1
4. 12 ms–1
A body A moves with a uniform acceleration a and zero initial velocity. Another body B, starts from the same point moves in the same direction with a constant velocity v. The two bodies meet after a time t. The value of t is

(2) 6 m/s
(3) –3 m/s
(4) 3 m/s
A car starts from rest and moves with uniform acceleration 'a' on a straight road from time t = 0 to t = T. After that, a constant deceleration brings it to rest. In this process the average speed of the car is:
