(N/A) One-dimensional motion: The motion of a train moving along a straight track is an example of one-dimensional motion,as it requires only one coordinate to specify its position at any time.
Two-dimensional motion: The motion of a striker on a carrom board is an example of two-dimensional motion,as the striker moves in a plane and requires two coordinates $(x, y)$ to specify its position.
Three-dimensional motion: The motion of a fish swimming in water or a bird flying in the sky is an example of three-dimensional motion,as it requires three coordinates $(x, y, z)$ to specify its position at any given time.

The $x$ and $y$ coordinates of a particle at any time $t$ are given by $x = 5t - 2t^2$ and $y = 10t$ respectively,where $x$ and $y$ are in meters and $t$ is in seconds. The acceleration of the particle at $t = 2 \, s$ is . . . . . . $m/s^2$.

The trajectory of a particle moving in a plane is as shown in the figure. The coordinates of position $A$ are $(0, 2)$. The coordinates of another point at which the instantaneous velocity is the same as the average velocity between the points $(0, 2)$ and $(5, 3)$ are:
