MOTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Motion is change in position of an object with time.
The branch of physics which deals with the study of the motion of
the object is known as mechanics.
Mechanics consists of three branches:
(i) Statics, (ii) Kinematics and (iii) Dynamics
(i) Statics: The branch of mechanics which deals with the study of
the objects at rest.
(ii) Kinematics: The branch of mechanics which describe motion
without going into the cause of motion.
(iii) Dynamics: The branch of mechanics which deals with the
study of the motion of the objects by taking into the account of the
force which cause the motion in the objects.

1.2 POINT OBJECT
If the position of an object changes by distance much greater than its own size in a reasonable duration of
time then the object may be regarded as a point object.
Examples: (i) Moving persons on earth as seen from a distant aircraft in space or a satellite are called
point objects.
(ii) Size of earth moving in space is taken as a point object w.r.t. large size of universe.
1.3 MOTION IN ONE DIMENSION
Motion in one dimension: An object moving along a straight line or path is said to have one-dimensional
motion.
Suppose, an object moves in a particular direction then its position at any time can be described by
knowing its distance from the starting point of the motion. It means, only one position coordinate (say, x)
is required to describe the position of the object in one dimensional motion.
Example: Motion of a bus on a straight road and motion of a train on a straight track, an object dropped
from a certain height above the ground etc.

1.4 UNIFORM AND NON-UNIFORM MOTION
Uniform: If a particle covers equal displacement in equal time interval them the motion of the particle is
termed as uniform.
Non-uniform: If a particle does not cover equal displacement in equal time interval then the motion of the
particle is termed as non-uniform.
1.5 SCALAR AND VECTOR QUANTITIES
Physical quantities maybe divided into two groups accordingto their properties required for fullyexpressing
them.
(i) Scalar quantities (ii) Vector quantities
Scalar Quantities: Such physical quantities, as are completely represented only by their magnitude and
unit are known as scalar quantities. Thus mass, time, distance, volume, temperature, etc. are scalar
quantities. Scalar quantities may be positive or negative. These quantities obey the general algebraic rules
of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division etc.
Vector Quantities: The physical quantities which need the knowledge of direction also together with
their magnitude and unit for their full representation, are known as Vector quantities. Thus, displacement,
velocity, area, force, acceleration, momentum, torque, angular momentum, current density, etc. are Vector
quantities.
For example if Ram moves 100 m. eastward then the displacement of Ram is possible only in one direction.
Hence, the displacement is a vector quantity.
*1.5.1 Representation of Vectors
A vector quantity is represented by a segment having an arrow at its end point.
In figure from where the arrow start in known as initial point (tail) and the point P where the arrow exits
is known as the top (head) of the vector. The length of segment is proportional to the magnitude of vector
taken in a proper scale. The direction of arrow represents the direction of vector quantity.
For example if a particle displaced by 15 metre in north direction
then it can be represented proportionately as shown in figure. In
this way the displacement 15 metre in north direction represented
by vector AB and the magnitude of the vector by |AB | and it is
also termed as modulus or mode of the vector. it is mearly a number
so the mode (magnitude) is a scalar quantity. In this way the vector
AB can be represent in magnitude and in direction as following.
AB = |AB |n̂
*1.5.2 Types of Vectors
The main type of vector quantities are as follow–
(1) Equivalent Vector –
If the magnitude, unit and direction of two or more than two vectors
is same then they are termed as equal vectors.
It is not necessary that the position of all equal vectors in space, to be
VAVA CLASSES/PHY/9TH

same. In figure three vector A , B and C are shown. These vectors
are of same length and parallel to each other also. Hence all of them are
equal vectors. If a given vector is displaced parallely to it then it remains
unchanged. For example if Rahim feels that the air is blowing from
north direction then by parallel displacement the direction of air can be
represented towards south as shown in figure.
(2) Unequal Vector:
If the magnitude or the direction or the both, are different for two vectors
then they are termed as unequal vectors. In figure all the three states, both vector A and B are unequal
vectors.
(3) Unit Vector –
Such a vector which has unit magnitude is known as unit vector. In general, the unit vector of vector A
is represented by  . Hence
 =
|
A
|
A
.....(i)
(4) Opposite or Negative vector –
If the magnitudes of two vectors are same but their directions are opposite to each other then they are
termed as negative vector. As in figure if two vectors A and B are mutually opposite to each other than
A = – B
(5) Zero Vector –
The vector which has zero magnitude and has no definite direction is known as zero vector and it is
represented by zero (0).
Remember – (i) If we multiply a vector quantity with zero then the resultant which we get is a zero vector.
(ii) If A = B then difference ( A – B ) will be the zero vector.
.
(6) Colinear Vector –
If two or more than two vectors are parallel to a straight line or opposite to each other are known as
colinear vectors. In figure colinear vectors in two different states are shown.
1.6 DISTANCE
The length of the actual path between intial and final position of a particle in a given interval of time is
called distance covered by the particle. Distance is the actual length of the path. Distance between two
points is path dependent.

1.6.1 Characteristics of Distance
(i) It is a scalar quantity
(ii) It depends on the path
(iii) It never reduces with time
(iv) Distance covered by a particle is always positive and can never be negative or zero.
(v) Unit: In C.G.S. centimeter (cm). in S.I. system metre (m).
1.7 DISPLACEMENT
The shortest distace from the initial position to the final position of the particle is called displacement. The
displacement of a particle is measured as the change in the position of the particle in a particular direction
over a given time interval. It depends only on final and initial positions.
1.7.1 Characteristics of Displacement
(i) It is a vector quantity
(ii) The displacement of a particle between any two points is equal to the shortest distance between them.
(iii) The displacement of an object in a given time interval may be +ve, –ve or zero.
(iv) The actual distance travelled by a particle in the given interval of time is always equal to or greater
than the magnitude of the displacement and in no case, it is less than the magnitude of the displacement,
i.e. Distance  |Displacement|
(v) Unit: In C.G.S. centimeter (cm). In S.I. system metre (m).

measured by the distance travelled by the object in unit time in any direction. i.e.
Speed =

1.9.1 Types of speed:
SPEED
Uniform speed Non-Uniform speed Average speed
Uniform speed:An object is said to be moving with a uniform speed, if it covers equal distances in equal
intervals of time, however small these intervals may be. The uniform speed is shown by straight line in
distance-time graph.
For example: suppose a train travels 1000 m., in 60 sec. The train is said to be moving with uniform speed,
if it travels 500m, in 30 sec., 250 m. in 15 sec., 125 m. in 7.5 sec. and so on.
Non-uniform speed: An object is said to be moving with a variable speed if it covers equal distances in
unequal interavals of time or unequal distances in equal intervals of time, however small these intervals
may be.
For example: suppose a train travels first 1000 m. in 60 sec., next 1000 m. in 120 sec. and next 1000 m. in
50 sec., then the train is moving with variable speed.
Average speed: When an object is moving with a variable speed, then the average speed of the object is
that constant speed with which the object covers the same distance in a given time as it does while moving
with variable speed during the given time.Average speed for the given motion is defined as the ratio of the
total distance travelled by the object to the total time taken i.e..

When the particle moves from time t1 to t2 with uniform speed V as shown in the graph.
Then distance covered S = V(t2 – t1) = AB × AD = Area of ABCD
Total distance travelled by particle = Area of speed-time graph

VELOCITY
Uniform Velocity Non-Uniform Velocity Average Velocity
Uniform Velocity:Abody is said to move with uniform velocity, if it covers equal displacements in equal
intervals of time, howsoever, small these intervals may be. When a body is moving with uniform velocity,
then the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the body remaine same at all points of its path.
Non-uniform Velocity:The particle is said to have non-uniformmotion if it covers unequal displacements

in equal intervals of time, howsoever, small these intervals may be. In this type of motion velocity does not
remain constant.

1.16 EQUATION OF MOTION BY GRAPHICAL METHOD
In uniformly accelerated motion the change in velocity in equal time interval is same. Hence in uniform ly
accelerated motion the graph time between velocity and time becomes a straight line. Its slope (tan ) is
equal to the acceleration. So

In figure the velocity of a particle moving in uniform accelerated motion is shown by a graph in between

It is the first equation of motion.
Again by a graph in velocity-time in uniform accelerated motion on time axis (In given time interval) the
covered area is equal to the displacement of the particle. So, if the displacement in between time interval
0 to t is S then
S = Area of quadrilateral shape OACBD
or S = Area of ABC + Area of rectangle OABD
or S = ½AB × BC + OA × OD or S = ½ × t(v–u) + u × t
or S = ½t(at) + ut or S = ut + ½ at2

Let a particle is moving in a circular path of radius r and centre at O. At any time t the particle is at

Example 1
Let an electron moves in circular path around the nucleus. If the radius of the path is r metre find
the displacement and distance travelled by the electron in following situation
(i) For one full revolution (ii) For half revolution
(iii) For hundread revolutions
Solution
(i) In full revolution the initial and final positions are same one hence the displacement of electron will be
zero. While the distance travelled by the electron in one revolution equals to the circumference of the
circular path i.e. = 2r metre
(ii) In half revolution the initial and final positions are opposite to each other, hence the displacement of
the electron is equal to the diameter of the circular path i.e. 2r metre while the distance travelled by
the electron will be equal to r metre
(iii) For 100 revolutions the initial and final positions of the electron will remain same one hence its
displacement will be zero. While the distance travelled by the electrons in 100 full revolutions will be
equal to 100 × 2r.

(i) Average speed of the student (ii) Average velocity of the student and
(iii) Average speed of the student for first 30 minute and first 50 minute
Solution
(i) The time taken by the student to reach the school = distance/speed
= 2 km/4 (km/hour)
Time taken in returning to home = 2 km/ (6 km/hour) = 1/2 h = 30 minute
So, the total time taken by student in whole of the journey
= 30 + 20 = 50 minute = 5/6 h
And the total distance travelled in that journey
Hence the average speed of the student = 4/(5/6) = (4×6)/5 = 4.8 km/h
(ii) After starting from home as student returns back to the home. Since the resultant displacement is
zero then velocity is also zero.
(iii) In first 30 minutes (students reaches school) the distance travelled is 2km and time taken is 1/2 hour.
So the average speed of the student is
= 2 km/30 minute = 4 km/h
In first 50 minutes students reaches school in first 30 minute and covers a distance of 2 km then in next 20
minute students returns home from the school speed with 6 km/h.
Hence the distance travelled by the student in 20 minutes when he returns to home = 6 × (1/3) = 2 km
So, the total distance travelled by the student in first 50 minutes (2 + 2) = 4 km
Hence, the average speed = 4 km/50 minute = 4/5/6 = 4.8 km/hour
Example 4
In given figure change in instantaneous speed of a particle with time is shown then find the
acceleration and distance covered by the particle in first 8 seconds.
speed
(m/s)
Solution
From figure the distance travelled by the particle = Area of speed – time graph with time axis
= 1/2 ×(8–0) × (20–0) = 80 metre
Similarly,
Acceleration = Slope of the line = (20–0)/(8–0) = 2.5 metre/sec2

Example 5*
Truck ‘A’ is going on a road with velocity 10 m/s. The second truck ‘B’ is coming from its back and
an another truck ‘C’ is coming from as front. The velocity of truck B and C is 15 m/s for each.
When the distance AB and AC is 500 metre each. The driver of truck B thinks to cross the truck A
before truck ‘C’. In this position how much minimum acceleration required for truck B.
Solution
The relative velocity of truck ‘C’ with respect to truck ‘A’
= Velocity of truck ‘C’ – Velocity of truck ‘A’ = 15 – (–10) = 25 m/s
and the distance of truck ‘C’ from truck ‘A’ = 500 metre
So the time taken by truck ‘C’ to cross truck ‘A’ = 500/25 = 20 sec
Hence the time taken by truck ‘B’ to reach up to ‘A’ should be less than 20 sec.
Again the velocity of truck ‘B’ with respect to truck ‘A’
= Velocity of truck ‘B’ – Velocity of truck ‘A’ = 15 –10 = 5m/s
If the minimum acceleration ‘a’ is required for truck ‘B’ to cover a distance of 500 metre with a relative
velocity 5 m/s in 20 seconds then by the second equation of motion.
s = ut + ½at2
500 = 5 × 20 + 1/2 × a × 20 × 20 or a = (500–100)/200 = 2 m/s
Example 6
In figure the velocity–time graph for a particle is shown. Then find out the following
(i) The average acceleration of the particle in between 6 to 8 seconds.
(ii) At what time interval the average acceleration of the particle becomes zero?
(iii) What will be the maximum acceleration?
(iv) What is the displacement of the particle in first 6 seconds?
Solution
(i) Average acceleration of the particle in between 6 to 8 seconds = Slope of line BC
= (60–30)/(8–6) = 30/2 or a = 15 metre/sec2
(ii) For zero average acceleration the velocity-time graph should be parallel to time axis. In figure portion
DE is parallel to the time axis. Hence for this portion the average acceleration will become zero. Where
the time interval is in between 10 to 14 second.
(iii) Retardation is a negative acceleration so the portion for which the velocity-time graph makes the
smallest angle with the velocity axis, the retardation is the maximum. In figure the line EF has the maximum
acceleration.
(iv) displacement of the particle in first 6 seconds will be area under the velocity time graph for first 6
seconds. So, displacement = Area OB6O = ½ × 6 × 30 = 90 m

Example 7
The velocity-time graph for a particle is according to figure. So, find the total displacement of the
particle.
Solution
According to the figure the velocity of the particle for first 4 second will be in positive direction and from
4 to 6 seconds as the velocity of particle in opposite direction so the displacement of particle will be
negative. So the total displacement.
x = Area of OAB – Areas of BED
= ½ × 4 × 10 – ½ × 2 × 10 = 10 metre
So the displacement of the particle is 10 metre and will be in positive direction.
Example 8
A runner races in straight line and his velocity time graph is shown in figure. Find the distance
covered by the runner in 20 second and also the maximum instantaneous acceleration of the
runner.
Solution
Distance covered by the runner in 20 second = Area of graph in between velocity and time
= OAM + rectangle MABN + BPC + rectangle PDQN
= ½ × (4×12) + (12×8) + ½ × (8×4) + 4 × 8 = 24 + 96 + 16 + 32 = 168 m
and the maximum acceleration = (12–0)/(4–0) = 3 metre/sec2
Example 9
If minute hand of a clock is 5 cm long. Find its angular velocity and linear velocity.

  • 1. MOTION 1.1 INTRODUCTION Motion is change in position of an object with time. The branch of physics which deals with the study of the motion of the object is known as mechanics. Mechanics consists of three branches: (i) Statics, (ii) Kinematics and (iii) Dynamics (i) Statics: The branch of mechanics which deals with the study of the objects at rest. (ii) Kinematics: The branch of mechanics which describe motion without going into the cause of motion. (iii) Dynamics: The branch of mechanics which deals with the study of the motion of the objects by taking into the account of the force which cause the motion in the objects. Question based on basic knowledge required to understand this chapter 1. If the speed of an object moving alonga straight line keeps changing, its motion is said to be (A) uniform (B) non-uniform (C) circular (D) None of these 2. Which of the following relations is correct? (A) speed = time distance (B) speed = distance × time (C) speed = distance time (D) None of these 3.

Which of the following distance-time graphs shows a truck moving with speed which is not constant? (A) (B) (C) (D) 10. Motion of a pendulum is (A) Along a straight line (B) circular (C) periodic (D) None of these 1.2 POINT OBJECT If the position of an object changes by distance much greater than its own size in a reasonable duration of time then the object may be regarded as a point object. Examples: (i) Moving persons on earth as seen from a distant aircraft in space or a satellite are called point objects. (ii) Size of earth moving in space is taken as a point object w.r.t. large size of universe. 1.3 MOTION IN ONE DIMENSION Motion in one dimension: An object moving along a straight line or path is said to have one-dimensional motion. Suppose, an object moves in a particular direction then its position at any time can be described by knowing its distance from the starting point of the motion. It means, only one position coordinate (say, x) is required to describe the position of the object in one dimensional motion. Example: Motion of a bus on a straight road and motion of a train on a straight track, an object dropped from a certain height above the ground etc. VAVA CLASSES/PHY/9TH All right copy reserved.

  • 3. 1.4 UNIFORM AND NON-UNIFORM MOTION Uniform: If a particle covers equal displacement in equal time interval them the motion of the particle is termed as uniform. Non-uniform: If a particle does not cover equal displacement in equal time interval then the motion of the particle is termed as non-uniform. 1.5 SCALAR AND VECTOR QUANTITIES Physical quantities maybe divided into two groups accordingto their properties required for fullyexpressing them. (i) Scalar quantities (ii) Vector quantities Scalar Quantities: Such physical quantities, as are completely represented only by their magnitude and unit are known as scalar quantities. Thus mass, time, distance, volume, temperature, etc. are scalar quantities. Scalar quantities may be positive or negative. These quantities obey the general algebraic rules of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division etc. Vector Quantities: The physical quantities which need the knowledge of direction also together with their magnitude and unit for their full representation, are known as Vector quantities. Thus, displacement, velocity, area, force, acceleration, momentum, torque, angular momentum, current density, etc. are Vector quantities. For example if Ram moves 100 m. eastward then the displacement of Ram is possible only in one direction. Hence, the displacement is a vector quantity. *1.5.1 Representation of Vectors A vector quantity is represented by a segment having an arrow at its end point. In figure from where the arrow start in known as initial point (tail) and the point P where the arrow exits is known as the top (head) of the vector. The length of segment is proportional to the magnitude of vector taken in a proper scale. The direction of arrow represents the direction of vector quantity. For example if a particle displaced by 15 metre in north direction then it can be represented proportionately as shown in figure. In this way the displacement 15 metre in north direction represented by vector AB and the magnitude of the vector by |AB | and it is also termed as modulus or mode of the vector. it is mearly a number so the mode (magnitude) is a scalar quantity. In this way the vector AB can be represent in magnitude and in direction as following. AB = |AB |n̂ *1.5.2 Types of Vectors The main type of vector quantities are as follow– (1) Equivalent Vector – If the magnitude, unit and direction of two or more than two vectors is same then they are termed as equal vectors. It is not necessary that the position of all equal vectors in space, to be VAVA CLASSES/PHY/9TH All right copy reserved. No part of the material can be produced without prior permission
  • 4. same. In figure three vector A , B and C are shown. These vectors are of same length and parallel to each other also. Hence all of them are equal vectors. If a given vector is displaced parallely to it then it remains unchanged. For example if Rahim feels that the air is blowing from north direction then by parallel displacement the direction of air can be represented towards south as shown in figure. (2) Unequal Vector: If the magnitude or the direction or the both, are different for two vectors then they are termed as unequal vectors. In figure all the three states, both vector A and B are unequal vectors. (3) Unit Vector – Such a vector which has unit magnitude is known as unit vector. In general, the unit vector of vector A is represented by  . Hence  = | A | A .....(i) (4) Opposite or Negative vector – If the magnitudes of two vectors are same but their directions are opposite to each other then they are termed as negative vector. As in figure if two vectors A and B are mutually opposite to each other than A = – B (5) Zero Vector – The vector which has zero magnitude and has no definite direction is known as zero vector and it is represented by zero (0). Remember – (i) If we multiply a vector quantity with zero then the resultant which we get is a zero vector. (ii) If A = B then difference ( A – B ) will be the zero vector. . (6) Colinear Vector – If two or more than two vectors are parallel to a straight line or opposite to each other are known as colinear vectors. In figure colinear vectors in two different states are shown. 1.6 DISTANCE The length of the actual path between intial and final position of a particle in a given interval of time is called distance covered by the particle. Distance is the actual length of the path. Distance between two points is path dependent. VAVA CLASSES/PHY/9TH All right copy reserved.

  • 5. 1.6.1 Characteristics of Distance (i) It is a scalar quantity (ii) It depends on the path (iii) It never reduces with time (iv) Distance covered by a particle is always positive and can never be negative or zero. (v) Unit: In C.G.S. centimeter (cm). in S.I. system metre (m). 1.7 DISPLACEMENT The shortest distace from the initial position to the final position of the particle is called displacement. The displacement of a particle is measured as the change in the position of the particle in a particular direction over a given time interval. It depends only on final and initial positions. 1.7.1 Characteristics of Displacement (i) It is a vector quantity (ii) The displacement of a particle between any two points is equal to the shortest distance between them. (iii) The displacement of an object in a given time interval may be +ve, –ve or zero. (iv) The actual distance travelled by a particle in the given interval of time is always equal to or greater than the magnitude of the displacement and in no case, it is less than the magnitude of the displacement, i.e. Distance  |Displacement| (v) Unit: In C.G.S. centimeter (cm). In S.I. system metre (m). 1.8 COMPARATIVE STUDY OF DISPLACEMENT AND DISTANCE S.No. Displacement Distance 1 It has single value between two points it may have more than one value between two points 2 May be +ve, –ve or zero Distance > 0 3 It can decrease with time It can never decrease with time 4 It is a vector quantity It is a scalar quantity Illustration 1 A boy travels a distance of 10 m towards south, then he runs towards east and travels 12 m in that direction.

What will be the distance and displacement of the body when it completes half a revolution? 1.9 SPEED Speed of an object is defined as the time rate of change of position of the object in any direction. It is measured by the distance travelled by the object in unit time in any direction. i.e. Speed = taken time travelled distance (i) It is a scalar quantity (ii) It gives no idea about the direction of motion of the objects. (iii) It can be zero or positive but never negative (iv) Unit: C.G.S. cm/sec., S.I. m/sec., 1 km/h = 0 6 60 1000  = 18 5 m/s 1.9.1 Types of speed: SPEED Uniform speed Non-Uniform speed Average speed Uniform speed:An object is said to be moving with a uniform speed, if it covers equal distances in equal intervals of time, however small these intervals may be. The uniform speed is shown by straight line in distance-time graph. For example: suppose a train travels 1000 m., in 60 sec. The train is said to be moving with uniform speed, if it travels 500m, in 30 sec., 250 m. in 15 sec., 125 m. in 7.5 sec. and so on. Non-uniform speed: An object is said to be moving with a variable speed if it covers equal distances in unequal interavals of time or unequal distances in equal intervals of time, however small these intervals may be. For example: suppose a train travels first 1000 m. in 60 sec., next 1000 m. in 120 sec. and next 1000 m. in 50 sec., then the train is moving with variable speed. Average speed: When an object is moving with a variable speed, then the average speed of the object is that constant speed with which the object covers the same distance in a given time as it does while moving with variable speed during the given time.Average speed for the given motion is defined as the ratio of the total distance travelled by the object to the total time taken i.e..

While the distance travelled by the electron in one revolution equals to the circumference of the circular path i.e. = 2r metre (ii) In half revolution the initial and final positions are opposite to each other, hence the displacement of the electron is equal to the diameter of the circular path i.e. 2r metre while the distance travelled by the electron will be equal to r metre (iii) For 100 revolutions the initial and final positions of the electron will remain same one hence its displacement will be zero.

But seeing that school is closed, return home quickly with a speed of 6 km/hour then find out (i) Average speed of the student (ii) Average velocity of the student and (iii) Average speed of the student for first 30 minute and first 50 minute Solution (i) The time taken by the student to reach the school = distance/speed = 2 km/4 (km/hour) Time taken in returning to home = 2 km/ (6 km/hour) = 1/2 h = 30 minute So, the total time taken by student in whole of the journey = 30 + 20 = 50 minute = 5/6 h And the total distance travelled in that journey Hence the average speed of the student = 4/(5/6) = (4×6)/5 = 4.8 km/h (ii) After starting from home as student returns back to the home. Since the resultant displacement is zero then velocity is also zero. (iii) In first 30 minutes (students reaches school) the distance travelled is 2km and time taken is 1/2 hour. So the average speed of the student is = 2 km/30 minute = 4 km/h In first 50 minutes students reaches school in first 30 minute and covers a distance of 2 km then in next 20 minute students returns home from the school speed with 6 km/h. Hence the distance travelled by the student in 20 minutes when he returns to home = 6 × (1/3) = 2 km So, the total distance travelled by the student in first 50 minutes (2 + 2) = 4 km Hence, the average speed = 4 km/50 minute = 4/5/6 = 4.8 km/hour Example 4 In given figure change in instantaneous speed of a particle with time is shown then find the acceleration and distance covered by the particle in first 8 seconds. speed (m/s) Solution From figure the distance travelled by the particle = Area of speed – time graph with time axis = 1/2 ×(8–0) × (20–0) = 80 metre Similarly, Acceleration = Slope of the line = (20–0)/(8–0) = 2.5 metre/sec2 VAVA CLASSES/PHY/9TH All right copy reserved.

The velocity of truck B and C is 15 m/s for each. When the distance AB and AC is 500 metre each. The driver of truck B thinks to cross the truck A before truck ‘C’. In this position how much minimum acceleration required for truck B. Solution The relative velocity of truck ‘C’ with respect to truck ‘A’ = Velocity of truck ‘C’ – Velocity of truck ‘A’ = 15 – (–10) = 25 m/s and the distance of truck ‘C’ from truck ‘A’ = 500 metre So the time taken by truck ‘C’ to cross truck ‘A’ = 500/25 = 20 sec Hence the time taken by truck ‘B’ to reach up to ‘A’ should be less than 20 sec. Again the velocity of truck ‘B’ with respect to truck ‘A’ = Velocity of truck ‘B’ – Velocity of truck ‘A’ = 15 –10 = 5m/s If the minimum acceleration ‘a’ is required for truck ‘B’ to cover a distance of 500 metre with a relative velocity 5 m/s in 20 seconds then by the second equation of motion. s = ut + ½at2 500 = 5 × 20 + 1/2 × a × 20 × 20 or a = (500–100)/200 = 2 m/s Example 6 In figure the velocity–time graph for a particle is shown.

Solution (i) Average acceleration of the particle in between 6 to 8 seconds = Slope of line BC = (60–30)/(8–6) = 30/2 or a = 15 metre/sec2 (ii) For zero average acceleration the velocity-time graph should be parallel to time axis. In figure portion DE is parallel to the time axis. Hence for this portion the average acceleration will become zero. Where the time interval is in between 10 to 14 second.
