$A$ particle starts from rest and traverses a distance $l$ with uniform acceleration,then moves uniformly over a further distance $2l$ and finally comes to rest after moving a further distance $3l$ under uniform retardation. Assuming the entire motion to be rectilinear,the ratio of the average speed over the journey to the maximum speed on its way is: (in $/5$)

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $4$

Let $v$ and $a$ denote the velocity and acceleration respectively of a body. Which of the following statements is correct?

The velocity of a particle moving along the $x$-axis is given by $V = x^2 - 5x + 4$ (in $\text{m/s}$), where $x$ denotes the $x$-coordinate of the particle in metres. The magnitude of the acceleration of the particle when the velocity is zero is:

Which one of the following statements is wrong?

$A$ particle moves along a straight line such that its displacement $x$ varies with time $t$ as $x = \alpha t^3 + \beta t^2 + \gamma$, where $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ are constants. $V_1$ is the average velocity of the particle during its journey between $t = 1 \ s$ and $t = 3 \ s$. $V_2$ is the instantaneous velocity of the particle at $t = 3 \ s$. The ratio $\frac{V_1}{V_2}$ is

$A$ person of height $1.6 \ m$ is walking away from a lamp post of height $4 \ m$ along a straight path on the flat ground. The lamp post and the person are always perpendicular to the ground. If the speed of the person is $60 \ cm \ s^{-1}$,the speed of the tip of the person's shadow on the ground with respect to the person is . . . $cm \ s^{-1}$.
