Practice Questions

Question 1

Which equation relates displacement $s$ to initial velocity $u$, acceleration $a$, and time $t$ in motion with constant acceleration?

Question 2

A car accelerates uniformly from $15\,\mathrm{m/s}$ to $25\,\mathrm{m/s}$ in $5\,\mathrm{s}$. What distance does it travel?

Question 3

In ideal projectile motion (neglecting air resistance), which component of velocity remains constant throughout the flight?

Question 4

A ball is projected from the ground at $30\,\mathrm{m/s}$ at an angle of $60^\circ$ above the horizontal. What is its time of flight? (Take $g=9.8\,\mathrm{m/s^2}$).

Question 5

A projectile is launched at $18\,\mathrm{m/s}$ at an angle of $45^\circ$. What maximum height does it reach? (Take $g=9.8\,\mathrm{m/s^2}$).
