$A$ body of mass $0.40 \;kg$ moving initially with a constant speed of $10 \;m s^{-1}$ to the north is subject to a constant force of $8.0 \;N$ directed towards the south for $30 \;s$. Take the instant the force is applied to be $t=0$,the position of the body at that time to be $x=0$,and predict its position at $t=-5 \;s, 25 \;s, 100 \;s$.

$A$ horse rider covers half the distance with $5\,m/s$ speed. The remaining part of the distance was travelled with speed $10\,m/s$ for half the time and with speed $15\,m/s$ for the other half of the time. The mean speed of the rider averaged over the whole time of motion is $\frac{x}{7}\,m/s$. The value of $x$ is

Two particles $P$ and $Q$ simultaneously start moving from point $A$ with velocities $15\,m/s$ and $20\,m/s$ respectively. The two particles move with accelerations equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. When $P$ overtakes $Q$ at $B$,then its velocity is $30\,m/s$. The velocity of $Q$ at point $B$ will be $..........\,m/s$.
