Is acceleration a vector quantity or scalar quantity?
Important Questions on Motion
A force of acts on a body so that the body acquire a velocity of after some time. Now the force of is replaced by another force F which decelerates the body and body come to the rest then.


(Assuming that the acceleration is uniform)



A body starts from rest is accelerated uniformly for 30s. If x1, x2, x3 are the distances travelled in first 10s; next 10s and last 10s respectively, then x1 : x2 : x3 is

In the above graph what is the value of acceleration?

State which of the following situations are possible and give an example for each of these:
An object with a constant acceleration but with zero velocity.








State whether the following situation is possible or not and give an example for the case.
An object with a constant acceleration but with zero velocity.

An object is thrown vertically upwards and rises to a height of . Calculate the velocity with which the object was thrown upwards. ().

Can be a body be accelerated, if it is moving with constant speed?


The direction of acceleration is same as that of _____.
(force/torque)
