MOTION WORKSHEET ANSWER KEY

1. Initial velocity of object (u) = 15m/s

Final velocity of object (v) = 10 m/s
Time taken (t) = 2 seconds
As, we know formula for acceleration is -(v-u)/t
So, Acceleration = (10-15)/2 = -5/2 = -2.5 m/s²
2. Distance =2πr/ 2
Displacement =2r
Distance/Displacement = 2πr / 2⋅2r =π/2 =22/14
a=v-u/t
a = 80-20/1/15
a = 60 × 15
a = 900km/h ²
3. 60= 30+x/2
X=120-30=90 Km/h= 90 x 5/18= 23.68 m/s
4. Given data:
The speed of car which covers 30 km = 30 km/h
The average speed of the journey = 60 km / hr
To find:
The speed of the car for next 90 km = ?
Solution:
To find the average speed for the whole journey, we need to find the mean value of
the given speed values.

Thereby,

Therefore, the speed for the rest of the travel is 90 km/hr.

5.
6. Average speed (12km/hr) = Total Distance / Total Time

Total Time = 10 min + 20 min = 30 min = 1/2 Hour

D1 = Speed * Time = 9 * 1/6 (10 min = 1/6 hr)
= 3/2 km = 1.5 km
D2 = ?
12 = 1.5 + D2 / 1/2
12 * 1/2 = 1.5 + D2
6 = 1.5 + D2
6 - 1.5 = D2
4.5 km = D2
Speed = Distance / Time
= 4.5 / 1/3 (20 min = 1/3 hr)
= 4.5 * 3 (Reciprocal)
= 13.5 km/hr
7. T= v-u/a
T= 0-12/-0.5 = 24 s
8. Initial velocity (u)=54 km/h that is 15 m/s.
Final velocity (v)=0
Time (t)=5 sec
a = v-u/t
v= u+at
0=15+a×5
0=15+5a
-15=5a
-15/5=a
-3=a
Therefore acceleration is -3.
OR Retardation is 3.

9. a) Calculation of the distance covered by the car:

The distance is a scalar quantity, therefore;
The total distance covered = OA + AB
= 100m +25m
= 125m
b) Calculation of the displacement:
 Displacement is a vector quantity.
Thus,
The displacement = OA - AB
= 100m - 25m
= 75m ( in east direction).

10. Distance covered = Perimeter of the semicircular track

Distance covered = 2πr ÷ 2
Distance covered = (2 × 22/7 × 70) m ÷ 2
Distance covered = (2 × 22 × 10) m ÷ 2
Distance covered = 440 m ÷ 2
Distance covered = 220 m
Now, we've to calculate displacement. Displacement is the shortest distance from
initial position to the final position of the body.
Displacement = Diameter
Displacement = 2 × Radius
Displacement = 2 × 70 m
Displacement = 140 m
