8. Suppose a boy is enjoying a ride on a merry-goround which is moving with a constant speed o f
IO mis. It implies that the boy is :
(a) At rest (b) Moving with no acceleration
(c) In accelerated motion (d) Moving with unifom, velocity.

lo the following questions 9 and 10, a statement of assertion (A) is folJ owed by a statement of
Reason (R). Choose the correct answer out of the fo llowing choices.
(a) Both the Assertion and the Reason are correct and the Reason is tJ1e correct explanation of
the Assertion.
(b) T he Assertion and the Reason are correct but Lhe Reason is not the correct explanaLion of
lhe Assertion.
(c) Assertion is true but the Reason is false.
( d) Assertion is false but the Reason is true.

9. Assertion (A) : The displacement-time graph o f a body moving uniformly is a straight line.
Reason (R): A body travell ing with unifonu velocity covers equal distances in equal intervals of
time with changing direction.

10. Assertion (A): If the velocity of a body in uniform motion changes, its acceleration cannot
remain constant.
Reason (R): If a body is Uirown verticaJ ly upward, lhe relationship between initial velocity (u)
and acceleration (a) al any moment is v2 - u2 = 2as.

(b) How do the displacement and distance change if its velocity o f projection is halved?

14 . Distinguish between uniform and non uniform acceleration.

SECTION-C

19. Read the fo llowing information and answer the questions based on information and related
studied concepts.
Ritesb was driving car to his office. When suddenly a boy came in between the road, be applied
brakes suddenly to save the child and the car came to the rest. The whole scenario was observed
by Sita and she draws the velocity-time graph regarding the situation.

20. Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow based on the passage and
related studied concepts.
A bus is moving with a velocity of 50 km/h. The driver sees a child running across the road and
he pressed the brakes. The lime taken by him to stop the bus in this emergency was J/10 th of a
second. In a second case, another bus was coming on the same road al the same 50 km/h and the
driver saw another child crossing tJ1e road. He applied the brakes and lime taken by him to the
emergency was 0.5 sec. Both the buses started moving to their destination after 10 minutes. Bus
A moved at 4S km/h while bus B moved al 60 km/h.
 (a) What is the distance between buses A and B?
(b) How much distance did Lhe bus move in the Ist case before the driver could press the brakes?
How much is the distance between bus A and bus B after 1.5 hours?
(c) How much distance did the bus move in the 2nd case before the dri ver could press the
brakes?
