Questions  

A particle starts moving along a straight line path with a velocity 10 ms-1. After 5 s, the distance of the particle from the starting point is 50 m. Which of the following statement about the nature of motion of the particle are correct? 

a
The body may be speeding up with constant positive acceleration.
b
The motion may be moving with constant velocity.
c
The body may have constant negative acceleration.
d
The motion may be first accelerated and then retarded.

detailed solution

Correct option is B

u=10ms−1, t=5s, S=50mVav.=505=10ms−1The motion may be with constant velocity. If the body moves with constant negative acceleration ,after some time it will come to rest then it will start moving in the opposite directionand at some point its distance will be 50 m from the starting point in a direction opposite to the direction of initial motion .The body may be first accelerated and then retarded.
