CLASS – IX CHAPTER - MOTION
1. A biker rides 700 m north, 300 m east, 400 m north ,
600 m west ,1200 m south, 300 m east and finally 100 m
north. Draw the path of motion of the biker. What
distance did he cover? What was his displacement?
2. There are 5 houses on street A, B, C, D and E. For all
cases, assume that positions to the right are positive.
10 m 10 m 10 m 10 m

A B C D E

(I) Draw a frame of reference with house A as the origin

and the positions of houses B, C, D and E.
(II) You live in house C. What is your position relative to
house E ?
(III) What are the position of houses A and D, if house B is
taken as the reference point?
3. The following table shows the position of three person
between 8:00 am and 8:20 am.
Time Position (in km)
Person A Person B Person C
8:00 am 0 0 0
8:05 am 4 5 10
8:10 am 13 10 19
8:15 am 20 15 24
8:20 am 25 20 27

(I) Who is moving with constant speed?

(II) Who has travelled maximum distance between 8:00
am and 8:05 am ?
(III) Calculate the average speed of person A in km h -1.
(IV) Draw position-time graph for A, B and C in graph
paper and paste it in H.W. copy.
4. Give one example for each of the type of motion when
:
(I) acceleration is in the direction of motion.
(II) acceleration is against the direction of motion.
(III) acceleration is uniform.
5. Name the physical quantities denoted by :
(I) The slope of the distance–time graph.
(II) The area under velocity-time graph.
(III) The slope of velocity-time graph.
6. The speed time graph of two cars are represented by P
and Q as shown below

(a) Find the difference in the distance travelled by two
cars (in m) after 4 s.
(b) Do they ever move with same speed? If so when?
(c) What type of motion cars P and Q are undergoing?
