Which of the following distance-time graphs shows a truck moving with speed which is not constant?
AnswerGraph (3)
In a distance-time graph, the constant speed of a truck will be represented by a straight line.
In a distance-time graph, a straight line parallel to the time axis indicates that the truck is not moving.
A curved line on the distance-time graph indicates that the truck is moving with a speed which is not constant.

A car moves with a speed of $40 \ km/h$ for $15$ minutes and then with a speed of $60 \ km/h$ for the next $15$ minutes. The total distance covered by the car is:
- A
$100 \ km$
- ✓
$25 \ km$
- C
$15 \ km$
- D
$10 \ km$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $25 \ km$
$25 km$
Case I
Speed of the car $=40 km / h$
Time taken $=15 min =15 / 60=0.25 h$
Speed $=\frac{\text { Distance Covered }}{\text { Time Taken }}$
Distance covered, $d_1=$ Speed $\times$ Time taken $=40 \times 0.25=10 km$
Case II
Speed of the car $=60 km / h$
Time taken $=15 min =\frac{15}{60}=0.25 h$
Speed $=\frac{\text { Distnace covered }}{\text { Time Taken }}$
Distance covered, $d_2=$ Speed $\times$ Time taken $=60 \times 0.25=15 km$
Total distance covered by the car, $d=d_1+d_2=10+15=25 km$
Therefore, the total distance covered by the car is $25 km$.

A car travels first $60\ km$ of a distance in 1hr, next $70\ km$ of the distance in next hour and remaining $20\ km$ distance in final hour. Then, its motion is:
- A
- ✓
- C
Either uniform or non - uniform motion.
- D
Neither uniform nor non-uniform motion.
AnswerDuring first hour, $\text{Speed}=\frac{60}{1}\text{km/ h}=60\text{km/ hr}$
During second hour, $\text{Speed}=\frac{70}{1}\text{km/ h}=70\text{km/ hr}$
During third hour, $\text{Speed}=\frac{20}{1}\text{km/ h}=20\text{km/ hr}$
So, the car travels different distances in equal time intervals.
This is an example of non - uniform motion.

When a graph between two physical quantities is a straight line, the two quantities are:
- A
- B
Independent of each other
- ✓
- D
AnswerAs we know the equation of a straight line is $Y = mX + C$
Let us assume $X$ and $Y$ are two different physical quantity and $C$ is any constant.
and the graph between them is straight line.
According to above equation,
$\text{Y}\propto\text{X}$
Hence, $X$ and $Y$ are Directly proportional.

A boy cycles a distance of $640m$ in $2$ minutes and $40$ seconds. What is the speed of the cycle?
- ✓
$4m/ s$
- B
$8m/ s$
- C
$12m/ s$
- D
$16m/ s$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $4m/ s$
Distance covered $= 640m$
Time taken $= 2\ min \ 40\ sec$
$= 2 × 60 + 40 = 160s$ (because $1$ minute $= 60$ seconds)
$\therefore\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}=\frac{640}{160}=4\text{m}/\text{s}$

Which of the following is/ are good example(s) of non - uniform motion?
- A
When an object is moving in a circular path with uniform speed
- B
A car is travelling in an overcrowded zigzag road
- C
- ✓
Both $B$ and $C$
AnswerCorrect option: D. Both $B$ and $C$
An object covering equal distances in equal time interval, i.e.
moving with a uniform speed is said to be in a uniform motion.
An object moving in a circular path with uniform speed is said to be in a uniform circular motion.
Since, in a motion of a pendulum and in a car travelling in an overcrowded zig zag road, the speed of the object is changing and is not uniform, hence they are examples of non - uniform motion.

Measurement of time can be done with the help of a:
AnswerA pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely.
When a pendulum is displaced sideways from its resting, equilibrium position, it is subject to a restoring force due to gravity that will accelerate it back toward the equilibrium position.
When released, the restoring force combined with the pendulum's mass causes it to oscillate about the equilibrium position, swinging back and forth.
The time for one complete cycle, a left swing and a right swing, is called the period.
The period depends on the length of the pendulum.
This time period when known can be used to measure time.

Which of the following are examples of non $-$ uniform motion along a straight line?
- A
- ✓
Brakes applied on a fast moving car
- C
Train on a straight bridge
- D
AnswerCorrect option: B. Brakes applied on a fast moving car
In non $-$ uniform motion, the speed of the object changes along a straight line.
It may increase or decrease for different intervals of time.
When brakes are applied, the car decelerates and its speed changes with time.
So applying brakes on a fast moving car is the example of non $-$ uniform motion.

A car moves with a speed of 40km/h for $15$ minutes and then with a speed of 60km/h for the next $15$ minutes. The total distance covered by the car is:
- A
$100\ km.$
- ✓
$25\ km.$
- C
$15\ km.$
- D
$10\ km.$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $25\ km.$
Case I
Speed of the car $= 40 km/h$
Time taken $= 15$ min $=\frac{15}{60}=0.25\text{h}$
$\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance covered}}{\text{Time taken}}$
Distance covered, d1 = Speed $\times $ Time taken $= 40 \times 0.25 = 10km$
Case II
Speed of the car = 60km/h
Time taken $= 15$ min $=\frac{15}{60}=0.25\text{h}$
$\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance covered}}{\text{Time taken}}$
Distance covered, d2 = Speed \times Time taken $= 60 \times 0.25 = 15km$
Total distance covered by the car, $d = d1 + d2 = 10 + 15 = 25km$
Therefore, the total distance covered by the car is 25km.

Measurement of time can be done with the help of a:
AnswerA pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely.
When a pendulum is displaced sideways from its resting, equilibrium position, it is subject to a restoring force due to gravity that will accelerate it back toward the equilibrium position.
When released, the restoring force combined with the pendulum's mass causes it to oscillate about the equilibrium position, swinging back and forth.
The time for one complete cycle, a left swing and a right swing, is called the period.
The period depends on the length of the pendulum .
This time period when known can be used to measure time.

$ii.$ The slope of displacement time graph for uniform motion is constant and gives constant velocity.
In other words, the velocity should be constant, $i.e.$
its direction and magnitude should be constant.
