$A$ student is at a distance of $16 \ m$ from a bus when the bus begins to move with a constant acceleration of $9 \ m \ s^{-2}$. The minimum velocity with which the student should run towards the bus so as to catch it is $\alpha \sqrt{2} \ m \ s^{-1}$. The value of $\alpha$ is

$A$ particle starts from rest at $x=0 \, m$ with an acceleration of $1 \, m/s^2$. At $t = 5 \, s$,it receives an additional acceleration in the same direction as its motion. At $t = 10 \, s$,its speed and position are $v$ and $x$,respectively. Had the additional acceleration not been provided,its speed and position would have been $v_0$ and $x_0$,respectively. It is found that $x - x_0 = 12.5 \, m$. Then one can conclude that $v - v_0$ is .............. $m/s$.

$A$ particle is moving along a straight line with constant acceleration. At the end of the $10^{th}$ second,its velocity becomes $20 \, m/s$,and in the $10^{th}$ second,it travels a distance of $10 \, m$. Then the acceleration of the particle will be ........ $m/s^2$.

$A$ particle is moving with speed $v = b\sqrt{x}$ along the positive $x$-axis. Calculate the speed of the particle at time $t = \tau$ (assume that the particle is at the origin at $t = 0$).

$A$ body starts from rest and acquires a velocity of $10 \ m \ s^{-1}$ in $2 \ s$. What is the acceleration of the body and the distance travelled?

$A$ train moves from rest with a uniform acceleration $a$. After attaining a maximum speed $v$,it starts moving with uniform retardation $a$. Assuming $s$ is the total distance covered in the unidirectional motion of the train,find its total time of journey and maximum speed.
