Chapter: Motion in a Straight Line (Class 11)
1. Define displacement. How is it different from distance? (3 marks)
2. A body moves along a straight line with a uniform velocity of 10 m/s. Calculate the distance
covered in 5 seconds. (2 marks)
3. Derive the three equations of motion using the graphical method. (5 marks)
4. What is acceleration? Explain the difference between uniform and non-uniform acceleration with
examples. (4 marks)
5. A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 2 m/s² for 10 seconds. Find the final velocity
and the distance covered. (4 marks)
6. Draw and explain a velocity-time graph for: (a) Uniform motion (b) Uniformly accelerated motion.
(4 marks)
7. Explain the concept of instantaneous velocity and average velocity. (3 marks)
8. A train moves with a velocity of 60 km/h for 30 minutes and then with 40 km/h for 30 minutes.
Find the average velocity of the train. (3 marks)
9. What are scalar and vector quantities? Give two examples of each. (3 marks)
10. A stone is dropped from a height of 80 m. How long will it take to reach the ground? (Take g =
9.8 m/s²) (3 marks)
11. Explain the significance of the area under a velocity-time graph. (3 marks)
12. A particle starts with an initial velocity of 5 m/s and moves with an acceleration of 3 m/s². Find
the distance it covers in 4 seconds. (3 marks)
13. State and explain the meaning of uniformly accelerated motion. (2 marks)
