Practice question
Question
A stone is thrown upwards with a speed of 14m/s. What is its velocity after 1.5s? (Take g\=10m/s2)
Explanation
Use v=v0+at. Here, v0=14m/s, a=−10m/s2, t=1.5s. As per NCERT Chapter 3, equations v=u+at, s=ut+½at², v²=u²+2as describe uniformly accelerated motion. Applying correct signs and units gives -1 m/s as the result, so option B is correct.
