No speed and average speed of a body have different meaning.
Solution – 05.
60 km/hr can be converted into m/s to compare with 15m/s.
60 km/hr = (60 X 1000)/3600 = 16.66 m/s. so speed 60 km/hr is greater.
Solution – 06.
20m/s can be converted inti km/hr as
20 m/s = (20 X 3600)/1000 = 72 km/hr.

No as their direction is different they don’t have same velocity.
Solution – 10.
we convert all the speeds in m/s to compare them.
36 km/hr = (36 X 1000)/3600 = 10m/s.
2 km/min = (2 X 1000)/60 = 33.3 m/s.
7 m/s = 7 m/s.
So increasing order of speed is 7m/s < 10m/s <33m/s.
Solution – 11.
let total distance be S.
Boy covers distance S/2 with speed u then time taken by him to cover this distance would be T1 =S/2u.
Again boy covers rest of the distance S/2 with speed v then time taken by him to cover this distance would be T2 =S/2v.
So total time taken by boy to cover the distance S is T = T1 + T2.
Total time T= S/2 (1/u +1/v) = s(u+v)/2uv.
And average speed = S/T = 2uv/(u+v).
Solution – 12.
Yes uniform speed and constant speed have same meaning.
Solution – 13.
let S be the distance between P and Q.
Body covers forward journey distance S (P to Q) with speed u then time taken by him to cover this distance would be T1 =S/u.
Again body covers backward journey distance S (Q to P) with speed v then time taken by him to cover this distance would be T2 =S/v.
So total time taken by body to cover the distance S is T = T1 + T2.
Total time T= S (1/u +1/v) = s(u+v)/uv.
And average speed = 2S/T = 2uv/(u+v).
Solution – 14.
As body goes from P to Q and then return back to P so the displacement of the body would be zero and hence average velocity would also be zero.

Speed of car while travelling from P to Q is 20 m/s.
Let car take time T1 to travel from P to Q then T1= S/20.
Speed of car while travelling from Q to P is 30 m/s.
Let car take time T2 to travel from Q to P then T2= S/30.
Total time = T1 + T2 = S/20 +S/30 =S/12.
So average speed of journey = total distance/ total time = 2S/(S/12) = 24 m/s.
Average speed of journey is 24 m/s.

Solution – 21.
If the acceleration of a moving body is constant in magnitude and direction then the path of the body must not be a straight line because in circular motion also acceleration of a body is constant in magnitude and always directed towards the centre.
So the path of the body may be a straight line and may be a circular one.

Solution – 29.
SI unit of retardation is ms-2.
Solution – 30.
first convert 60 km/h in m/s.
60 km/hr =(60 X 1000)/3600 = 16.7 m/s.
This is initial velocity of car i.e u = 16.7 m/s.
As car stops in 10 seconds so final velocity is =0 m/s.
So acceleration = (v-u)/t = (0-16.7)/10 = -1.67 ms-2.
Acceleration of car is = -1.67 ms-2.

We know v = u +at.
Then u = v – at.
u = 0 – (-2.5 X 10) = 25 m/s.
So initial velocity of the body is 25 m/s.

Solution – 44.
Slope of a graph is given as rate of change of y coordinates to the x coordinate. In speed time graph speed is on the y axis and time is on the x axis. And we define acceleration as rate of change of speed with respect to time. So slope of a speed time graph gives acceleration.

As we distance = speed X time.

V = 10 + 2 X 10.
V (final velocity) = 30 ms-1.
Solution – 50.
Initial velocity u = 10 km/hr. = (10 X 1000)/3600 = 8.33 ms-1.
Final velocity = 64 km/hr = (64 X 1000)/3600 = 17.77 ms-1.
Time = 10 s.
Acceleration = (v-u)/t = (17.77- 8.33)/10 = 9.44/10 = 0.94 ms-2.

Bus is moving with initial velocity of u = 60 km/hr.
60 km/hr = ( 60 X 1000)/3600 = u = 16.66 ms-1.
Reaction time = t =1/15 sec.
Distance would the bus had moved before pressing the bus would be = u X t.
S = 16.66 X 1/15 = 1.1 m.

Again boy covers rest of the distance S/2 with speed B then time taken by him to cover this distance would be T2 =S/2B.
So total time taken by boy to cover the distance S is T = T1 + T2.
Total time T= S/2 (1/A +1/B) = s(A+B)/2AB.
And average speed = S/T = 2AB/(A+B).

Then time taken by train to cover these 80 km is 80/v.
Total time becomes T = 4/3 +80/v = ( 4v + 240)/3v.
Total distance= 120 km.
Average speed = 60 km/h (given)
However average is given by = total distance /total time.
So (120 X 3 X v)/(4v +240) = 60
360 v = 240v +14400
120v = 14400
v= 14400/120 =120 km/hr.

Initial speed of car u = 50 km/h.
Final speed of car v = 55 km/h.
Time taken by car to attain this speed is = 1 sec. = 1/3600 hr.

Let total distance be S.
Body covers distance S/2 with speed 40 ms-1 then time taken by him to cover this distance would be T1 =S/2 X 40.
Again body covers rest of the distance S/2 with speed 60 ms-1 then time taken by him to cover this distance would be T2 =S/2 X 60.
So total time taken by body to cover the distance S is T = T1 + T2.
Total time T= S/2 (1/40 +1/60) = s(40+60)/2 X 40 X 60 = s/48.
And average speed = S/T = 48 ms-1.
So average speed is 48 ms-1.

Initial velocity of body u = 0.5 ms-1.
Final velocity of the body v = 0 ms-1 as body comes to rest finally.
Retardation of body = 0.05 ms-2.

0 = 0.5 – 0.05t
T = 0.5/0.05 = 10 sec.
Solution – 57.
Initial speed of train = 90 km/hr
Speed of train imn m/s = ( 90 X 1000 )/3600 = 25 m/s.
Retardation of the train = 2.5 ms-2.
Final speed of train at platform = 0 m/s.
We know that v2 – u2 = 2as.
0 – 25 X25 = 2 X (-2.5) X s
S = 625/5 = 125 m.
So driver should apply the brakes 125 m before the platform.

Train travels first 30 km at speed of 30 km/hr.
Time taken by train to cover this distance is = distance/speed = 30/30 = 1 hr.
Let speed of train to cover next 90 km is v .
Then time taken by train to cover these 90 km is 90/v.
Total time becomes T = 1 +90/v = ( v + 90)/v.
Total distance= 120 km.
Average speed = 60 km/h (given)
However average is given by = total distance /total time.
So (120 � v)/(v +90) = 60
120 v = 60v +5400
60v = 5400
v= 5400/60 =90 km/hr.
so train has to cover those 90 km at a speed of 90 km/hr.
Solution – 59.
speed of train = 30 km/hr.
Speed in m/s = ( 30 X1000 )/3600 = 50/6 m/s.

36 = ( 50 +s ) X 6/ 50.
1800 = 300 + 6s
