Suggest a suitable physical situation for the following $a-t$ graph.
(N/A) The given $a-t$ graph shows that initially,the body is moving with a constant velocity (acceleration is zero).
Then,for a short interval of time,the acceleration increases to a maximum value and then decreases back to zero.
Finally,the body continues to move with a constant velocity again.
$A$ suitable physical situation for this graph is a hammer moving with a uniform velocity striking a nail. During the impact,the hammer experiences a brief period of high acceleration (deceleration) before continuing its motion or coming to rest.
Then,for a short interval of time,the acceleration increases to a maximum value and then decreases back to zero.
Finally,the body continues to move with a constant velocity again.

View Solution$A$ particle is moving in a straight line such that its velocity is increasing at $5\,m/s$ per meter. The acceleration of the particle is .......... $m/s^2$ at a point where its velocity is $20\,m/s$.
$A$ body starts from the origin and moves along the $x$-axis such that its position at any instant is $x = 4t^2 - 12t$,where $t$ is in seconds and $x$ is in meters. What is the acceleration of the particle in $m/s^2$?
Easy
View SolutionThe velocity of a body depends on time according to the equation $v = \frac{t^2}{10} + 20$. The body is undergoing
