Let u = Initial velocity (at t = 0), v = Velocity of
the particle after time t If the velocity and acceleration are anti-parallel
then,
a = Acceleration (uniform), s = Displacement of the
particle during time 't' v = u – at

t = 10 s "s = ut + (1/2) at ", the distance travelled by the bus
Hence correct answer is (c) 2

Example-23 and the distance travelled by the passenger
A particle starts with an initial velocity 2.5 m/s along the s2 = ut + 0 … (2)
positive x-direction and it accelerates uniformly at the rate [Note : acceleration of passenger = 0]
Now the passenger will catch the bus if,

Solution. a
2
We have, s = ut + (1/2) at
2 So the passenger will catch the bus if t is real i.e. u
= (2.5) (2) + (1/2) (0.50) (2) = 6m

Since the particle does not return back, it is also the So, the minimum speed of passenger for catching the

From " s = ut + (1/2) at ", 2
2 2
we have s1 = (1/2) t1 , s2 = vt2 – (1/2) t2 similarly for 5th second
t 2 S5 = u+(1/2) a (2×5–1)
Total distance = s1 + s2 = (1/2)
12 = u + (9/2) a … (ii)
2
t From (i) & (ii) u = – 6 m/s and a = 4 m/s ,
[Putting value of s1 and s2 and v = ]
so, distance travelled in 5 sec,

A passenger is standing ’d’ m away from a bus. The bus Similarly distance travelled in 8 sec

Now the distance fallen in (t – 1) s will be Example-33

h = 1/2 g(t – 1) …(2) The displacement of particle is zero at t = 0 and at t = t

h = (1/2) × (9.8) × (3.41) = 57 m Now, v = k (1/2 kt) = k t/2
