Motion in a Straight Line Additional Exercises Solutions
- Q3.23: A three-wheeler starts from rest, accelerates uniformly with $1 m s^{-2}$ on a straight road for $10 s$, and then moves with uniform velocity. Plot the distance covered by the vehicle during the nth second ($n$ = 1,2,3….) versus $n$. What do you expect this plot to be during accelerated motion : a straight line or a parabola ?
- Q3.24: A boy standing on a stationary lift (open from above) throws a ball upwards with the maximum initial speed he can, equal to $49 m s^{-1}$. How much time does the ball take to return to his hands? If the lift starts moving up with a uniform speed of $5 m s^{-1}$ and the boy again throws the ball up with the maximum speed he can, how long does the ball take to return to his hands ?

Top Tutor Dilshad Garden, Delhi 4 yrs of Exp 3 students 965 hrs of classes completed 260 per hour Online Classes I am a Chartered Accountant by profession and have been teaching Commerce subjects—primarily Accounting and Economics—for the past 4 years. I work with BCom/BSc students and CA aspirants, helping them build strong conceptual clarity and practical understanding. Teaching is my passion and hobby, and I focus on delivering quality education by maintaining small group sizes (2–3 students at a time). This allows me to give individual attention, ensuring that every student understands the concepts thoroughly and gains confidence. My teaching approach is practical-based, designed to bridge the gap between academic theories and real-world industry applications. I emphasize how concepts are applied in actual business environments—both in private and public sectors—so students can connect textbook knowledge to real scenarios. I prefer conducting online, individual sessions to provide personalized support and address each student’s learning style and pace. I teach using a whiteboard for clear and visual explanations. For CA students, I recommend specific books aligned with the syllabus. For Class 11 and 12, I rely on their existing school books but provide additional notes or references on request to avoid overloading them. While I haven't pursued awards in teaching, the positive feedback from my students and their academic success bring me immense satisfaction. My goal is to make learning effective, relevant, and engaging for every student I teach.
