A car is moving with uniform acceleration along a straight line between two stops X and Y. Its speed at X and Y are `2 ms^-1 and 14 ms^-1` , ThenA. its speed at mid-point of XY is `10 ms^-1`B. its speed at a point A such that `XA : AY = 1 :3` is `5 ms^-1`C. the time to go from X to the mid-point of XY is double of that to go from mid-point to YD. the distance travelled in first half of the total time is half of the distance travelled in the second half of the time

Answer» Correct Answer - A::C
`(14)^2=(2)^2+2 as`
`:. 2as=192` units
At mid point, `v^2=(2)^2+2a(s/2)`
`=4+192/2=100`
`:. v=10 m//s`
`XA:AY=1:3`
`:. XA=1/4s` and `AY=3/4s`
`v_1^2=(2)^2+2a(s/4)`
`=4+192/4=52`
`:. v_1=sqrt52!=5 m//s`
`10=2+a t_1 (v=u+at)`
`:. t_1=8/a 14=10+a t_2`
`:. t_2=4/a` or `t_1=2t_2`
`S_1=(2t)+1/2a(t^2)`=distance travelled in first half
`S_2=2(2t)+1/2a(2t)^2`
`S_3=S_2-S_1`=distance travelled in second half
We can see that, `S_1!=(S_3)/2`
