Question
An object is moving along a straight line with uniform acceleration. The following table gives the velocity of the object at various instants of time:
Time (in sec.):
0
1
2
3
4
5
6
Velocity (in m/s):
2
4
6
8
10
12
14
Plot the graph.
From the graph,
  1. Find the velocity of the object at the end of 2.5 seconds.
  2. Calculate the acceleration.
  3. Calculate the distance covered in the last 4 seconds.

Answer

$\text{a}=\frac{\text{v}-\text{u}}{\text{t}}$

$\text{a}=\frac{4-2}{1}=2\text{m/s}^2$

Now for,

$\text{t}=2.5$

$\text{a}=\frac{\text{v}-\text{u}}{\text{t}}$

$2=\frac{\text{v}-2}{2.5}$

$5=\text{v}-2$

$\text{v}=7$

Akhtar, Kiran and Rahul were riding in a motorcar that was moving with a high velocity on an expressway when an insect hit the windshield and got stuck on the windscreen. Akhtar and Kiran started pondering over the situation. Kiran suggested that the insect suffered a greater change in momentum as compared to the change in momentum of the motorcar (because the change in the velocity of the insect was much more than that of the motorcar). Akhtar said that since the motorcar was moving with a larger velocity, it exerted a larger force on the insect. And as a result the insect died. Rahul while putting an entirely new explanation said that both the motorcar and the insect experienced the same force and a change in their momentum. Comment on these suggestions.
