A body is imparted motion from rest to move in a straight line. If it is then obstructed by an opposite force, then

A

the body may necessarily change direction

B

the body is sure to slow donw

C

the body will necessarily continue to move in the same direction at the same speed

D

none of the above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

As force is oppostie to velocity so body will be retarded and slow down.

A body starting from rest moves along a straight line with a constant acceleration. The variation of speed (v) with distance (s) is represented by the graph:

A particle starts motion from rest and moves along a straight line. Its acceleration-time graph is shown. Find out speed of particle at t=2s and at t=3s.

When a body is subjected to a uniform acceleration, it always moves in a straight line. Straight line motion is the natural tendency of the body.

Can a body have the momentum if it moves along a straight path?

A particle moves with simple harmonic motion in a straight line. In first taus , after starting form rest it travels a destance a, and in next tau s it travels 2a, in same direction, then:

Cosider a body moving constant speed of 2 m//s in a straight line. When ypu start your stopwatch, you observe the body 1 m away from a fixed point on the line. Suggest suitable physical quantities, write a function and draw its graph decribing motion of the body.

When body is at rest or it is in uniform motion, no force act on it.
