$A$ 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

$A$ 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 $/5$)
