Q40 / 103 · NTA Abhyas (NEET) 2020 · Physics · Motion In One Dimension

A car is moving along a straight road with uniform acceleration. It passes through two points P and Q separated by a distance with velocity 30 km h-1 and 40 km h-1 respectively. The velocity of the car midway between P and Q is

  • A
    33.3 km h-1
  • B
    202 km h-1
  • Correct answer
    C
    252 km h-1
  • D
    35 km h-1

Solution

Let PQ = x, then

a=402-3022x=350x   ∵   v2=u2+2 as

Also, the velocity at the midpoint is given by

v2-302=2×350x×x2

This gives v=252 km h-1

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
