$A$ 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 .............. $m/s$.

  • B

  • C
    $15$
  • D

For a train engine moving with a speed of $20 \; m/s$,the driver must apply brakes at a distance of $500 \; m$ before the station for the train to come to rest at the station. If the brakes were applied at half of this distance,the train engine would cross the station with a speed of $\sqrt{x} \; m/s$. The value of $x$ is $..............$ (Assuming the same retardation is produced by the brakes).
