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

  1. 1. (d) displacementDisplacement is a vector with direction.
  2. 2. (b) m/s²Acceleration is measured in m/s².
  3. 3. (d) timeIt relates velocity, acceleration and time.
  4. 4. (a) 2 m/s²a = (10 − 0)/5 = 2 m/s².
  5. 5. Motion in which an object covers equal distances in equal intervals of time.
  6. 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. 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.
