Summer Assignment
Class – IX (Physics)
1. Define acceleration and state its SI unit. For motion along a straight line, when do we consider the acceleration to be (i)
positive (ii) negative? Give an example of a body in uniform acceleration.
2. Find the total displacement of the body from the following graph:
3. A car travels at 54 km/h for first 20 s, 36 km/h for next 30 s and finally 18 km/h for next 10 s. Find its average speed.
4. Define acceleration and give its SI unit. When is acceleration of a body negative? Give two examples of situations in
which acceleration of the body is negative.
5. Distinguish between uniform motion and non, uniform motion. Is uniformly accelerated motion uniform motion? Give
one example each of uniform and non-uniform motion.
6. The speedometer readings of a car are shown below. Find the acceleration of the car and its displacement.

72 km/h
7. Define uniform circular motion and give example of it. Why is it called accelerated motion?
8. A object goes from point X to Y and then come back from Y to X. What is the displacement and average velocity?
9. Write down the difference between Scalars and Vectors?
10. Four Cyclist A,B,C ,D starts at the same point and at the same time and move in a straight line to reach destination .They
all move with uniform velocities. They reach the destination in the following order
C→A→B→DC→A→B→D
Answer the following questions
a. If the displacement-time graph is plotted for each cyclist, which will be having highest slope
b. Arrange the cyclist in decreasing order of velocity
11. What do you infer if ?
1 Distance –time graph is straight line
2
Velocity –time graph is curved
3 Displacement –time is zig zag
12. What is the difference between Uniform Accelerated and Non Uniform accelerated motion?
13. What happens to speed, velocity acceleration when an object moves in a circle with uniform speed?
14. When an object is thrown upwards, what is true of velocity and acceleration at the highest point of motion of the object?
15. True and False Statements
A) Displacement can be zero but distance never
B) Displacement magnitude can be greater than distance travelled by the object
C) Time is a vector quantity
D) If the velocity of the body decreases with time, the acceleration is negative (retardation), and the
motion is called decelerated motion
E) The area of the velocity time graph gives displacement of the body
F) Acceleration is a scalar quantity
G) Motion and rest are relative terms
I) an object can be moving with Uniform speed but variable acceleration
