$A$ goods train accelerating uniformly on a straight railway track approaches an electric pole standing on the side of the track. Its engine passes the pole with velocity $u$ and the guard's room passes with velocity $v$. The middle wagon of the train passes the pole with a velocity of:

$A$ body moves on a frictionless plane starting from rest. If $S_{n}$ is the distance moved between $t=n-1$ and $t=n$,and $S_{n-1}$ is the distance moved between $t=n-2$ and $t=n-1$,then the ratio $\frac{S_{n-1}}{S_n}$ is $\left(1-\frac{2}{x}\right)$ for $n=10$. The value of $x$ is:
