Q3. If the velocity of a body is reducing, it is said to have
(i) Negative acceleration (ii) Retardation (iii) Positive acceleration (iv) Both (a) and (b)
Q4.If the v – t graph is a straight line inclined to the time axis, then
(i) a = 0 (ii) a ≠ 0 (iii) a = constant ≠ 0 (iv) a ≠ constant ≠ 0
Q5.A body starting at a point, say A, reaches, say B, ahead in a straight line and returns back to A. Then there is
(i) positive displacement (ii) negative displacement (iii) zero displacement (iv) cannot be said
Q6. A car accelerates uniformly from 18 km/h to 36 km/h in 5 minutes. The acceleration is
