Chapter-8

MOTION 


1.     An athlete completes one round of a circular track of diameter 200 m in 40 s. What will be the distance covered  and the displacement at the end of 2 minutes 20 s?



2.     Joseph jogs from one end A to the other end B of a straight 300 m road in 2 minutes 30 seconds and then turns around and jogs 100 m back to point C in another 1 minute. What            are Joseph's average speeds and velocities in jogging (a)  from A to B and (b) from A to C?



3.     Abdul, while driving to school, computes the average speed for his trip to be 20 km h-¹. On his return trip along the same route, there is less traffic and the average speed is 30  km h-¹. What is the average speed for Abdul's trip?



4.     A motorboat starting from rest on a lake accelerates in a straight line at a constant rate of 3.0 m s-2 for 8.0 s. How far does the boat travel during this time?



5.     A driver of a car travelling at 52 km h¹ applies the brakes and accelerates uniformly in the opposite direction. The car stops in 5 s. Another driver going at 3 km h-¹ in another car         applies his brakes slowly and stops in 10 s. On the same graph paper, plot the speed versus time graphs for the two cars. Which of the two cars travelled farther after the brakes were applied?



6.     Fig 8.11 shows the distance-time graph of three objects A,B and C. Study the graph and answer the following questions:




    (a) Which of the three is travelling the fastest?

    (b) Are all three ever at the same point on the road?

    (c) How far has C travelled when B passes A?
    
    (d) How far has B travelled by the time it passes C?



7.     A ball is gently dropped from a height of 20 m. If 
        its velocity increases uniformly at the rate of 10m 
        s-2, with what velocity will it strike the ground? 
        After what time will it strike the ground?



8. The speed-time graph for a car is shown is Fig. 8.12.




    (a) Find how far does the car travel in the first 4 

        seconds. Shade the area on the graph that 

        represents  the distance travelled by the car 

        during the period.


    (b) Which part of the graph represents uniform 

         motion of the car?



9.     State which of the following situations are                    
        possible and give an example for each of these:


    (a) an object with a constant acceleration but with 

         zero velocity

    (b) an object moving in a certain direction with an 

         acceleration in the perpendicular direction.



10.     An artificial satellite is moving in a circular orbit 

         of radius 42250 km. Calculate its speed if it takes 

         24 hours to revolve around the earth.
