Important Questions on Measurements and Motion

MEDIUM

A body starts from rest is accelerated uniformly for 30s. If x1, x2, x3 are the distances travelled in first 10s; next 10s and last 10s respectively, then x1 : x2 : x3 is

In the above graph what is the value of acceleration? 

MEDIUM
A car accelerates uniformly from 18 km/h to 36 kmh in 5 sec. Calculate the acceleration.
MEDIUM
A train starting from rest attains velocity of 72 km h-1 in 5 min, then find the acceleration.
