1. If the displacement of an object is proportional to square of time, then the object moves with
a) uniform velocity b) uniform acceleration c) increasing acceleration d) decreasing
acceleration
2. The velocity time graph of a body is parallel to the time axis. The body is
a) at rest b) having uniform acceleration c) having zero acceleration d) having non-uniform
acceleration
3. A particle is moving in a circular path of radius r. The displacement after half a circle would be:
a) Zero b)π r c)2 r d)2π r
5. Suppose a boy is enjoying a ride on a merry-go-round which is moving with a constant speed of
10 m/s. It implies that the boy is
a) at rest b) moving with no acceleration c) in accelerated motion d) moving with uniform
velocity
8. When the distance travelled by a body is directly proportional to time, it is travelling with
a) Uniform acceleration b) Non-uniform acceleration c) Constant speed d) Variable
speed
The following questions consist of two statements – Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Answer
these questions selecting the appropriate option given below:
a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
c) A is true but R is false.
d) A is false but R is true.
10. Assertion (A) : A body cannot move on a circular path without any acceleration.
Reason (R): In Uniform circular motion, the velocity of the body remains constant.
