3. A body travelling along a straight line traversed one-half of the total distance with
velocity

v0 .

The remaining part of the distance was covered with velocity v 1 , for

half the time and with velocity

v2

for other half of time. Find the mean velocity over

whole time of motion.

4. Derive v2 - u2 = 2as using graphical method.
5. A car accelerates from rest at a constant acceleration
de-accelerates at constant rate

for some time, after which it

to come to rest. If the total time elapsed is t

second, then calculate

a) Maximum velocity attained by the car
b) Total distance travelled by car in terms of

and

6. Draw velocity time graph from the following curve

7. Acceleration experience by boat after engine is cut-off is given, a = -K v

constant. If

is the magnitude of velocity after cut-off. Find the magnitude of the

velocity at time t after cut-off.

8. Acceleration of particle in m/s2 is given by, a = 3t2 + 2t + 2. If a particle starts with
velocity, v = 2m/s at t = 0 from origin.
a) Find velocity at the end of 2s?
b) Which kind of motion it is
c) Find average velocity of particle between t = 1s and t = 3s
9. The speed-time graph of a particle moving along a fixed direction is shown. Obtain the
distance travelled by the particle between t = 2s to 6s
