A car moving at 36 km/h is brought to rest in 2 s. Deceleration is
A. 10 m/s²
B. 5 m/s²
C. 18 m/s²
D. 2.5 m/s²
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
36 km/h = 10 m/s. a = (0-10)/2 = -5 m/s², magnitude 5 m/s².

Question #1 Report Error
Which of the following has highest specific heat capacity?
A. Iron
B. Aluminium
C. Copper
D. Water

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Water has exceptionally high specific heat (4200 J/kg°C) due to hydrogen bonding. Used as coolant. Iron ~450, copper ~385, aluminium ~900. High specific heat moderates climate.

A particle moves such that its position coordinates (x, y) are given by x = 2t and y = t^2. The equation of its trajectory is:
A. y = x^2 / 4
B. y = x^2 / 2
C. y = x
D. y = 2x^2

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
The equation of trajectory represents the path of the particle in the x-y plane, eliminating the time variable 't'. Given x = 2t, we can write t = x/2. Substitute this into the y equation: y = t^2 = (x/2)^2 = x^2 / 4. This confirms the particle moves in a parabolic path.
