$A$ parachutist drops freely from an aeroplane for $10\,s$ before the parachute opens. Then he descends with a net retardation of $2.5\,m/s^2$. If he bails out of the plane at a height of $2495\,m$ and $g = 10\,m/s^2$,his velocity on reaching the ground will be .......$m/s$.

Which of the following statements are true for a moving body?

At time $t=0$, a particle leaves the origin and moves in the positive direction of the $X$-axis. If the velocity of the particle varies as $v(t)=v_0(1-t/t_0)$, where $|v_0|=10 \ m/s$ and $t_0=10 \ s$, then the distance covered by the particle during the first $20 \ s$ is: (in $m$)

$A$ cyclist traversed half the distance of a linear track with a velocity $10 \ m \ s^{-1}$. The remaining part of the track was covered with a velocity $v_1$ for half the time and a velocity $v_2$ for the other half of the time. If $v_1+v_2=20 \ m \ s^{-1}$, then the average velocity of the cyclist during the completion of the journey through the track is (in $m \ s^{-1}$)

$A$ gas balloon is going up with a constant velocity of $10 \text{ m/s}$. When this balloon reached a height of $75 \text{ m}$, a stone is dropped from it and the balloon keeps moving up with the same velocity. The height of the balloon when the stone hits the ground is . . . . . . $\text{m}$. (Take $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$)

In what different ways can the velocity of an object be changed?
