$A$ parachutist drops freely from an aeroplane for $10\,s$ before the parachute opens. Then he descends with a net retardation of $2.5\,m/s^2$. If he bails out of the plane at a height of $2495\,m$ and $g = 10\,m/s^2$,his velocity on reaching the ground will be .......$m/s$.

$A$ particle moving in a straight line covers half the distance with speed $6 \, m/s$. The other half is covered in two equal time intervals with speeds $9 \, m/s$ and $15 \, m/s$ respectively. The average speed of the particle during the motion is: (in $ \, m/s$)

$Assertion$: $A$ body with constant acceleration always moves along a straight line.
$Reason$: $A$ body with constant acceleration may not speed up.

$A$ car accelerates from rest with $2 \,m/s^2$ on a straight line path and then comes to rest after applying brakes. Total distance travelled by the car is $100 \,m$ in $20 \,s$. Then, the maximum velocity attained by the car is (in $\,m/s$)

At time $t=0$, a particle leaves the origin and moves in the positive direction of the $X$-axis. If the velocity of the particle varies as $v(t)=v_0(1-t/t_0)$, where $|v_0|=10 \ m/s$ and $t_0=10 \ s$, then the distance covered by the particle during the first $20 \ s$ is: (in $m$)

The speed-time graph for a body moving along a straight line is shown in the figure. The average acceleration of the body may be .......... $m/s^2$.
