In abave questions ` 13 and 14`, we have carefully distinguished between average speed and magnitude of average velocity. No such distainction is necessary when we considedr speed and magnitude of velocity. The instantneoud speed if alwary equal to the magnitude of nistantaneous velocity. Why ?

Answer» Instantaneoud speed ` (v_(ins)` of the paticle at an instant is the firsta dericative of the distance with respect to time at theat instant of time i.e. ` v_(ins) = (dx)/(dt)` .
Since in instantaneous speed we taken taken only a small interval of time (dt) durig which direction of motion of a body is not supposed to change, hence there is no difference between total path length and magnitude of displacement fro small interval of time (dt) Hence, instantaneous speed is alwary equal to magnitued of instantaneous velocity.

A man walks on a straight road from his home to a moardet `3 km` away with a speed of`6 km//h`. Finding the market closed, he instantly turns and walks back with a speed of `9 km//h`. What is the (a) magnitude of average velocity and (b) averge speed of the man, over the interval of time (i) `0 to 30 min`, (ii) `0to 50 min`, (iii) `0 to 40 min`?

Answer» Time taken by man ti go fro m his home to market,
`t_(1) =(distance )/(speed) =(3 km )/(6 km //h) =1/2 h =30 min`
Time taken by man to go from market to home,
`t_(2) =(3 km)/(9 km//h) =1/3 h =20 min`
Total time taken`=t_(1) +t_(2) =1/2 +1/3 =-5/6 h`
`=50 min`
(i) `0 to 30 min`
(a) Average velocity `=(displacement )/(time)`
`=(3.0 km)/((1//2) h) =6 km //h`
(b) Average speed =(path lenght)/(time) =(3.0 km )/((1//2) h)`
`=6 km //h`
(ii) `0 to 50 min`
Total path lenth coverad `=3.0 +3.0`
`=6.0 km`
Total displacement `=(displacement 0 /(time)`
Total displacement `=zero
(a) Average velocity `=(displacrmrnt)/(time)`
`=0/((5//6)h) =0`
(b) Average speed `=(total path length)/(time)`
`=(6 km )/((5//6)j) =7.2 km //h`
(iii) `0 to 40 min`
Distance moved in `30 min (from home to market) =3.0 km`
Distance moved in `10 min (from market to home) with speed `9 km //h` `=9xx (10)/(60) =1.5 km` .
So, displacement `=3.0 -1.5 =1.5 km`
Total path length travelled `3.0+ 1.5`
`=4.5 km`
(a) Average velocity`=(1.5km)/((400//60)h) =2.25 km //k` (b) Average speed `=(4.5 km)/9(40.60)h) =6.75 km //h`.

A man walks on a straight road from his home to a market ` 2.5 km` away with a speed of `5 km //h`. Finding the market closed, he instantly turns and walks back with a speed of `7.5 km//h`. What is the (a) magnitude of average velocity and (b) average speed of the man, over the interval of time (i) `0` to 30 min `. (ii) 0 to 50 min (iii) 0 to 40 min ?

Answer» Time tanen by man to go from his home to market, ` t _1 = (distance )/(speed) = (2.5)/ 5 = 1/2 h`
Time taken by man to go from market to his home, ` T_2 = (2.5) /( 7. 5) = 1/3 h`
:. Total time taken ` t_1 + t_2 + 1/2 = 5/6 = 5/6 h = 50 min.
(i) to 30 min`
(a) Acerage velocity = (dispacement )/(time ) = ( 2.5)/ (1//2) = 5 km// h (b) Avereage speed = (distance ) /(time ) = ( 2.5) /(1//2) = 5 km //h`
(ii) to ` 50 min`
Time distance travelled` = 2.5 + 2. 5 = 5 km `
Total displacment = zero
(a) Average velocity = (displacemt )/( time) =0 (b) Average speed = (distace) /(5//6) = 6 km //h`
( iii) ` 0 to 40 min` .
Distance moved in ` 10 min` (from ome to market) = 2.5 km`.
Distance moved in ` 10 min (from market to home ) with speed ` 7.5 km//h = 7. 5 xx (10)/ (60) = 1. 2 5 km`
so displacemnt` = 2.5 - 1. 25 = 1. 25 km`
Distanc travelled `= 2. 5 + 1. 25 = 3. 75 km ` ltbRgt (a) Average velocity `= ( 1.250/ (( 40 //60)) = 1.875 km //h` ltbRgt (b) Average speed ` = (3. 75)/ ( ( 40 // 60 )) =5. 625 km //h`.

A stone falls freely under gravity. It covered distances `h_1, h_2` and `h_3` in the first `5` seconds. The next `5` seconds and the next `5` seconds respectively. The relation between `h_1, h_2` and `h_3` is :A. ` h_1 = h_2 =h_23`B. ` h_1 =2 h_2 =3 h_3`C. ` h_1 = h_2/3 = h_3/5`D. ` h_2 = 3 h_1 `amd ` h_3 = 3 h_2`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Here, ` h_1 = 1/2 g (5)^2 = (250/2 g ,`
` (h-1 + h_2 ) = 1/2 g ( 5 +5 )^2 = 50 g`
`( h_1 + h_2 = h_3 ) =1/2 g ( 5 + 5 =5)^2 = (225)/2 g`
Now ` h_2 = (h_1 = h_2) - h_1 = 50 g- (25)/2 g`
` = ( 75)/2 g= 3 h_1`
or ` h_1 = _2/3 `
And ` h_3 = ( h_1 +h_2 + h_3 ) - ( h_1 + h_2)`
` = ( 225)/2 g - 50 = (125)/5 g = 5 h_1`
or ` h_1 = h_3 /5`

Let the two cyclist meet after tiem (t), when time is noted from the statrt of cyclist (A). At meeting point, the distatnce coverted by both the cyclist is the same.
So, `1/2 a_1 t^2 = 1/2 a_2(t -3)^2`
or ` a_1/a_2 = ((tt-3)^2)/t_2 = 1/4` [from (i)]`
or ` (t-3)/t = 1/2 or ` 2 t- 6 ` or ` t= 6 min`.

` vec a = (d vec v)/(dt) = ( 8. 0 hat I + 2.0 hat j) ms^(-2)`
So ` d vec v =( 8. 0 hat I + 2.0 hat j) t ` or ` vec v = vec u + 8.0 t hat I + 2.0 t hat j`
As` vec v= (d vec r)/(dt) ` or ` d vec r = vec v dt`
so, ` d vec r = (vec u + 8.0 t hat + 2.0 t hat j ) dt`
Integrating it within the conditions of motion i.e. as time changes from ` 0` to `t`, displacement changes from ` 0` to ` r`, we have :

` vec r = vec u t + 1/2 xx 8.0 t ^2 hat i + 1/2 xx 2.0 t^2 hat j ` or ` z hat i + y hat j = t + 4. 0 t ^2 hat i + t^2 hat j = 4.0 t^2 hat i + (10 t + t^2) hat j`
Here, qwe have, ` = 4.0 t^2` and ` y=10 t+ t^2` :. ` t= ( x//4) ^(1//2)`
(b) Velocity of the particle at time (t) is ` vec v= 10 hat j 8.0 t +2.0 t hat j`
When ` t= 2 s`, then, ` vec v = 10 hat j + 8.0 xx 2 hat i + 2.0 xx 2 hat j = 16 hat i + 14 hat j`
Speed` = | vec v| = sqrt ( 16 ^@ + 14^@ ) = 21. 26 ms^(-10`.

A body covers `10 m` in 4 th ` second and ` 15m` in `16 th` second of its uniformly accelerated motion. How far will it travel I the next `3 seconds .

Answer» Here, `D_(4) =10 m , D_(6) =15 ,`
`S_(9) -S _(6)=? `
Let (u) and (a) be the initial velocity and unitorm acceleration of the body. As
`D(n) =u +a/2 (2 n-1)
:. D_(4) +a/2 (2 xx 4-1) =10 ` …(i)
and `D_(6) =u +a/2 (2 xx 6 -1) =15` .. (i)
Subtravting (i) from (iii), we get
`2a=5 or a=(5//2) ms^-2)`
Form (i).,
`u=10 -(5//2)/2 (8-1) =10 -(35)/4 =5/4 ms^(-1)`
Distance travelled in `t seconds is
`S=ut + 1/2 at^(20`
When `t=9s`, then
S_(9) =5/4 xx 1/2 xx 5/2 xx 9^(2) =112. 5 m`
When `t=6 s`,
`S_(6)=5/4 xx 6 +1/2 xx 5/2 xx 6^(2) =52.5 m`
:. Distance travelled in the next three seconds `S_(9 ) S_(6) =112.5 -52 =60.0 m`.
