The initial velocity of a particle moving along the $x$-axis is $u$ (at $t=0$ and $x=0$) and its acceleration $a$ is given by $a=kx$. Which of the following equations is correct for its velocity $(v)$ and position $(x)$?

  • A
    $v^2-u^2=2kx$
  • B
    $v^2=u^2+2kx^2$
  • C
    $v^2=u^2+kx^2$
  • D
    $v^2+u^2=2kx$

$A$ 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 . . . . . . $m$.

$A$ car moving with uniform acceleration covers a distance of $200 \,m$ in the first $2 \,s$ and a distance of $220 \,m$ in the next $4 \,s$. The velocity of the car after $7 \,s$ is: (in $\,m/s$)

Stopping distance of vehicles: When brakes are applied to a moving vehicle,the distance it travels before stopping is called stopping distance. It is an important factor for road safety and depends on the initial velocity $(v_0)$ and the braking capacity,or deceleration,$-a$ that is caused by the braking. Derive an expression for stopping distance of a vehicle in terms of $v_0$ and $a$.

$A$ body travels in a straight line from point $A$ to point $B$ with an initial velocity zero and uniform acceleration, covering $1 \,m$ during the first second and $39 \,m$ during the last second. The distance between $A$ and $B$ in metre is
