3) Abody thrown vertically upwards has positive velocity but

acceleration

4) The instantaneous speed is equal to the

5) A stone is thrown vertically upwards with a velocity of 30 m/s. If the

acceleration due
to gravity is 10 m/s, the distance travelled by the stone during the first second
of its

motion is

rt B: Choose the correct answer from the following:

1. Two cars A and B travel along the same road in the same direction from the same
starting point. Car A maintains a speed of 50 km/h and car B 60 km/h, but B starts
one

hour later. Car B will overtake car A in

journey.

i The height of the tower is (g = 10 m/s?)

(a) 45m (b) 90 m (©) 72m (d) 135m

. A ball is thrown vertically upwards from the top of a tower with a speed of 20
m/s. It
returns to the ground level in 6 second. The height of the tower is
(a) 20m (b) 80m (c) 120m (d) 300 m

. A stone falls freely from rest. The distance covered by it in the last second is
equal to
the distance covered by it in the first three seconds. The time taken by the stone
to

reach the ground is

(a) 4s (b)5s (8 (d) 10s

. A stone is dropped from the top of a 20 m high cliff. One second later another
stone is
thrown downwards from the cliff. Both the stones reach the ground simultaneously.
