- 1. Which quantity has both magnitude and direction?
- (a) time
- (b) speed
- (c) distance
- (d) displacement
- 2. The SI unit of acceleration is:
- (a) m
- (b) m/s²
- (c) s
- (d) m/s
- 3. The equation v = u + at relates velocity and:
- (a) energy
- (b) mass
- (c) force
- (d) time
- 4. A car from rest reaches 10 m/s in 5 s. Its acceleration is:
- (a) 2 m/s²
- (b) 5 m/s²
- (c) 50 m/s²
- (d) 1 m/s²
- 5. Define uniform motion.
- 6. Can displacement be zero while distance is not? Give an example.
- 7. A train starting from rest attains a velocity of 72 km/h in 5 minutes. Find its acceleration and the distance travelled.

- 1. (d) displacement — Displacement is a vector with direction.
- 2. (b) m/s² — Acceleration is measured in m/s².
- 3. (d) time — It relates velocity, acceleration and time.
- 4. (a) 2 m/s² — a = (10 − 0)/5 = 2 m/s².
- 5. Motion in which an object covers equal distances in equal intervals of time.
- 6. Yes — a runner who completes one full circular lap returns to the start, so distance is the track length but displacement is zero.
- 7. Convert: 72 km/h = 20 m/s; t = 5 min = 300 s; u = 0. Acceleration a = (20 − 0)/300 = 0.067 m/s². Distance s = ut + ½at² = 0 + ½ × 0.067 × 300² = 3000 m = 3 km.
