Short Questions
Q1: What is the difference between uniform and variable velocity? From the explanation
of variable velocity, define acceleration. Give SI units of velocity and acceleration.
Q2: An object is thrown vertically upward. Discuss the sign of acceleration due to
gravity, relative to velocity, while the object is in air.
Q3: Can the velocity of an object reverse the direction when acceleration is constant. If
so give an example.
Q4: Motion with constant velocity is a special case of motion with constant acceleration.
Is this statement true? Discuss

time and state law of motion in terms of momentum.
Q6: Define impulse and show that how it is related to linear momentum?

bouncing ball behave in each case? Give plausible reasons for the fact that K.E.is not
conserved in most cases?
