31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Motion in a Straight Line - 2 - Question 5

A bus travelling the first one third distance at a speed of 10 km/h, the next one third at 20 km/h and the last one-third at 60 km/h. The average speed of the bus is [1991]

Detailed Solution for 31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Motion in a Straight Line - 2 - Question 5

Let total distance be x

It covered
x/3 at 10
x/3 at 20
x/3 at 60
Times taken respectively are { d / t }
x / 30
x / 60
x / 180 respectively

total time = x/30 + x /60 + x/180
= 10x / 180
= x / 18

Average speed of bus (avg s )
= total distance / total time

avg s = x / {x/18}
avg s = 18 km / h

A body is thrown vertically upward from the ground. It reaches a maximum height of 20 m in 5 sec. After what time, it will reach the ground from its maximum height position? [1995]

Detailed Solution for 31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Motion in a Straight Line - 2 - Question 13

hmax = 20 m and t = 5 sec. Time taken by the body to reach the ground from some height is the same as taken to reach that height.
Therefore, time to reach the ground from its maximum height is 5 sec.

Detailed Solution for 31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Motion in a Straight Line - 2 - Question 15

The speed of an object, falling freely due to gravity, depends only on its height and not on its mass. Since the paths are frictionless and all the objects fall through the same height, therefore, their speeds on reaching the ground will be in the ratio of 1 : 1 : 1.

31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Motion in a Straight Line - 2 - Question 16

The water drops fall at regular intervals from a tap 5 m above the ground. The third drop is leaving the tap at an instant when the first drop touches the ground. How far above the ground is the second drop at that instant ? (Take g = 10 m/s2)[1995]

Detailed Solution for 31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Motion in a Straight Line - 2 - Question 16

Height of tap = 5m and (g) = 10 m/sec2.
For the first drop, 5 = 

= 5t2 or t2 = 1 or t = 1 sec.
It means that the third drop leaves after one second of the first drop. Or, each drop leaves after every 0.5 sec.
Distance covered by the second drop in  0.5 sec

= 1.25 m.
Therefore, distance of the second drop above the ground = 5 – 1.25 = 3.75 m.

If a car at rest accelerates uniformly to a speed of 144 km/h in 20 s, it covers a distance of [1997]

Detailed Solution for 31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Motion in a Straight Line - 2 - Question 19

Initial velocity of car (u) = 0
Final velocity of car (v) = 144 km/hr = 40 m/s
Time taken = 20 s
We know that, v = u + at 40 = a × 20 ⇒ a = 2 m/s2
Also, v2 – u2 = 2as

31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Motion in a Straight Line - 2 - Question 20

A car moving with a speed of 40 km/h can be stopped by applying brakes at least after 2 m. If the same car is moving with a speed of 80 km/h, what is the minimum stopping distance? [1998]

Detailed Solution for 31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Motion in a Straight Line - 2 - Question 20

v2 – u2 = 2as

  where u1 = 40 km/h

For same retarding force s ∝ u2

∴ s2 =   4s =   8mIf

 F is retarding force and s the stopping distance, then 

For same retarding force, s α v2

∴ s2 = 4s1 = 4 x 2= 8m

Displacement s = 3t3 + 7t2 + 5t +8;

Velocity = 

Acceleration = 

Acceleration at (t = 1s) = 18×1+14 = 18 + 14 = 32 m/s2

31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Motion in a Straight Line - 2 - Question 27

A  particle moves along a straight line OX. At a time t (in seconds) the distance x (in metres) of the particle from O is given by x = 40 + 12t – t3. How long would the particle travel before coming to rest? [2006]

Detailed Solution for 31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Motion in a Straight Line - 2 - Question 27

At t = 0, the particle is at, let's say x distance, from O;
then putting t = 0 in the given displacement-time equation we get;

► x = 40 + 12(0) − (0)3 = 40m

Particle comes to rest that means the velocity of the particle becomes zero after travelling certain displacement; let's say the time be t.

then after differentiating the given displacement−time equation wrt. time we get the velocity−time equation

► v = 12 − 3t2

at time t = t (the time when the particle comes to rest ): v = 0;
► 12 − 3t= 0;
► t = 2s

Then, at t = 2s we are at, let's say x′ distance from O;

put this value of t (=2) in given displacement-time equation, we get;

►  x′ = 40 + 12 (2) − (2)3
      = 56m

Further;
We have seen that the particle started his journey when it is at 40m from point O. 
And came to rest at 56m from point O.
then the particle travelled a distance of:

► 56 − 40 = 16m.
