Consider the motion of the tip of the minutes hand of a clock. In one hour
I. The displacement is zero
II. The distance covered is zero
III. The average speed is zero
IV. The average velocity is zero

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

A and D are correct

Option C (A and D are correct) is correct because in one hour, the minute hand completes a full circle, returning to its starting point, making the displacement and average velocity zero. The distance covered and average speed are non-zero.

Velocity-time curve for a body projected vertically upwards is Two cars A and B approach each other at the same speed, then what will be the velocity of A if velocity of B is

8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}

? Two cars are moving in the same direction with a speed of

30\mathrm{km}{\mathrm{h}^{ - 1}}

. They are separated from each other by 5 km. Third car moving in the opposite direction meets the two cars after an interval of 4 min. What is the speed of the third car? A body is projected vertically up with ‘u’. Its velocity at half its maximum height is A scooter starts from rest have an acceleration of

1 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}

150 \mathrm{~m}

behind it starts from rest with an acceleration of

2 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}

. After how much time, the car catches up with the scooter? A motor vehicle travelled the first one third of a distance ‘S ’ at a speed of

{V_1} = 10\,kmph

, the second one third at a speed of

{V_2} = 20\,kmph

and the last one third at a speed of

{V_3} = 60\,kmph

determine the mean speed of the vehicle over the entire distance ‘S ’
