The velocity of a body changes from 2 m/s to 10 m/s in 4 s. Distance covered in this time is (assuming constant acceleration) MCQ with Answer and Explanation

The velocity of a body changes from 2 m/s to 10 m/s in 4 s. Distance covered in this time is (assuming constant acceleration)
A. 48 m
B. 16 m
C. 32 m
D. 24 m
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
a = (10-2)/4 = 2 m/s². s = 2×4 + ½×2×16 = 8+16=24 m. Or average velocity 6 m/s ×4=24.

Question #1
The de Broglie wavelength associated with a moving particle is inversely proportional to its:
A. Velocity only
B. Mass only
C. Kinetic energy
D. Momentum

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Louis de Broglie proposed that matter exhibits wave-like properties. The de Broglie wavelength (lambda) of a particle is given by the formula lambda = h / p, where 'h' is Planck's constant and 'p' is the linear momentum (mass * velocity) of the particle. Therefore, the wavelength is strictly inversely proportional to the momentum of the moving particle.
