$A$ particle moves a distance $x$ in time $t$ according to the equation $x = (t + 5)^{-1}$. The acceleration of the particle is proportional to:

  • A
    $(velocity)^{3/2}$
  • B
    $(x)^2$
  • C
    $(x)^{-2}$
  • D
    $(velocity)^{2/3}$

Brakes are applied in a car moving with a speed of $20\ m/s$,which produces a retardation of $5\ m/s^2$. The distance travelled by the car until it stops is ........ $m$.

If the decrease in velocity is the same in equal intervals of time,then describe the $x-t$ graph.

$A$ body starts with an initial velocity of $10\,m/s$ and moves along a straight line with constant acceleration. When the velocity of the particle is $50\,m/s$,the acceleration is reversed in direction. The velocity of the particle when it again reaches the starting point is $............\,m/s$.

$A$ bus moving along a straight highway with a speed of $72 \,km/h$ is brought to a halt within $4 \,s$ after applying the brakes. The distance travelled by the bus during this time (assume the retardation is uniform) is . . . . . . $m$.

$A$ motorist starting a car from rest accelerates uniformly to a speed of $v \ m/s$ in $9 \ s$. He maintains this speed for another $50 \ s$ and then applies the brakes and decelerates uniformly to rest. His deceleration is numerically equal to three times his previous acceleration. Then the time during which the deceleration takes place is .......... $s$ :-
