5. Shloka is enjoying on a merry go round which is moving at a speed of 2m/s. It shows that he is

a)   In an accelerated motion

b)  In non accelerated motion

c)   At rest

d)  Moving with uniform velocity

6. The area under speed time graph gives

a)   Displacement

b)  Distance

c)   Velocity

d)  Average velocity



7) DEFINE THE FOLLOWING TERMS:

a) SPEED:

Speed is the rate of change of distance or the distance travelled in unit time.It is a scalar quantity. The SI unit of speed is ms^-1.
Speed = Distance travelled / Time taken

b) VELOCITY:

Velocity is the rate of change of displacement.It is the displacement in unit time.It is a vector quantity. The SI unit of velocity is ms^–1.
Velocity = Displacement / Time taken

c) ACCELERATION

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity or it is the change of velocity in unit time. It is a vector quantity.The SI unit of acceleration is ms^–2.

Acceleration   = Change in velocity/Time

                       = (Final velocity – Initial velocity)/Time

                    A = (v–u)/t


8.

a) WRITE ANY TWO DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SCALAR AND VECTOR QUANTITIES


Scalar Quantity
Vector Quantity
Scalar quantity has only magnitude, but no direction.
Vector quantity has both magnitude and direction.
Every scalar quantity is one dimensional.
Vector quantity can be one, two or three dimensional.
Few examples of scalar quantity:
  • Length
  • Mass
  • Energy
  • Density
  • Temperature
Few examples of vector quantity:
  • Displacement
  • Velocity
  • Acceleration
  • Weight
  • Force

ABDUL ,WHILE DRIVING TO SCHOOL ,COMPUTES THE AVERAGE SPEED FOR HIS TRIP TO BE 20Km/h. ON HIS RETURN TRIP ALONG THE SAME ROUTE, THERE IS LESS TRAFFIC AND THE AVERAGE SPEED IS 40 Km/h. WHAT IS THE AVERAGE SPEED FOR ABDUL’S TRIP?

SOLUTION:

Let the distance traveled by Abdul from home to school   = s km

                                       Time taken to reach the school   =  t1 sec

                     For Return journey , Abdul cover distance    =  s km

                                                                                Time   =  t2 sec

  Average speed for forward journey[home - school ]     = Total distance/ Total time.
                                                                          20 km/h   =   s/t1

                                                                               t1      =   s/20 h --eq(1)

 Average speed for backward journey[school -home]        = Total distance/ Total time.
                                                                  30 km/h          =    s/t2

                                                                           t2          =    s/30h ---eq(2)

                            Average distance for entire journey    =    Total distance/ Total time

                                                       =    (s+s)/[s/20 +s/30]

                                                       =    2s/s[1/20+1/30]
                                                          
                                                       =     2x20x30/50
                                                         
                                                       =     24 km/hr



10) DERIVE THE FIRST EQUATION OF MOTION MATHEMATICALLY.

The change in velocity with time for an uniformly accelerated object. The object starts from the point D in the graph with velocity, u. Its velocity keeps increasing and after time, t it reaches the point B on the graph.

Equations of Motion

Time = t = OE = DA
From the graph we know that, AB = DC

First equation of motion

            By definition, Acceleration

= Change in velocity / Time

= (Final velocity – Initial velocity)/Time

= (OC – OD) / OE

= DC / OE

a = DC / t

DC = AB = at

                  From the graph EB = EA + AB

v = u + at (1)

                      This is the first equation of motion
