The driver of a bus moving with a velocity of $72 \ km/h$ observes a boy walking across the road at a distance of $50 \ m$ in front of the bus and decelerates the bus at $5 \ m/s^2$ by applying brakes and is just able to avoid an accident. The reaction time of the driver is (in $s$)

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $3.5$
  • C
    $0.5$
  • D
    $4.5$

$A$ bead is moving in medium $1$ with a uniform speed of $1\, m/s$ for $2.5\, s$. Then it enters into air and falls freely under gravity for $2\, m$. Finally, it enters medium $2$ and immediately moves with uniform speed for $1.5\, s$. The total distance the bead has traveled is.........$m$ $(g = 10\, m/s^2)$: (in $.1$)

Which of the following statements are correct?
$(a)$ Average speed of a particle in a given time interval is never less than the magnitude of average velocity.
$(b)$ It is possible to have a situation in which $|d\vec{v}/dt| \neq 0$ but $d/dt|\vec{v}| = 0$.
$(c)$ The average velocity of a particle is zero in a time interval. It is possible that the instantaneous velocity is never zero in the interval.
$(d)$ The average velocity of a particle moving on a straight line is zero in a time interval. It is possible that the velocity is never zero in the interval. (Infinite accelerations are not allowed).

$A$ train starts from rest from a station with acceleration $0.2 \, m/s^2$ on a straight track and then comes to rest after attaining maximum speed at another station due to retardation $0.4 \, m/s^2$. If the total time spent is half an hour,then the distance between the two stations is [Neglect the length of the train]. (in $, km$)
