Question

Draw a velocity versus time graph of a stone thrown vertically upwards and then coming downwards after attaining the maximum height.

July 22, 2024

Answer

During upward motion, acceleration = – g and during downward motion acceleration = + g. Times of upward and downward motion is equal. Also initial and final velocities are equal to $(g {T \over Z} )$ .

Suppose a squirrel is moving at a steady speed from the base of a tree towards some nuts. It then stays in the same position for a while, eating the nuts, before returning to the tree at the same speed. A graph can be plotted with distance on the x-axis and the time on y-axis.

Observe the graph carefully and answer the following questions. (i) Which part of the graph shows the squirrel moving away from the tree? (ii) Name the point on the graph which is 6 m away from the base of the tree. (ii) Which part of the graph shows that the squirrel is not moving? (iv) Which part of the graph shows that the squirrel is returning to the tree? (v) Calculate the speed of the squirrel from the graph during its journey.

The driver of train A travelling at a speed of 54 kmh-1 applies brakes and retards the train uniformly. The train stops in 5 seconds. Another train B is travelling on the parallel with a speed of 36 kmh-1 . Its driver applies the brakes and the train retards uniformly; train B stops in 10 seconds. Plot speed-time graphs for both the trains on the same axis. Which of the trains travelled farther after the brakes were applied?
