TOTAL MARKS: 20
Due Date: 19/04/2012
DON’T MISS THESE Important instructions:
To solve this assignment, you should have good command over first 10 lectures.
Upload assignments (Microsoft word) properly through LMS, (No Assignment
will be accepted through email).
Write your ID and name on the top of your solution file.
All students are directed to use the font and style of text as is used in this
document.
Don’t use colorful back grounds in your solution files.
Use Math Type or Equation Editor etc for mathematical symbols.
Write to the point avoid from unnecessary explanation, such superfluous
explanation will reduce your number.
Avoid copy/paste from internet etc, if found you will be graded as zero marks.
This is not a group assignment, it is an individual assignment so be careful and
avoid copying others’ work. If some assignment is found to be copy of some
other, both will be awarded zero marks. It also suggests you to keep your
assignment safe from others. No excuse will be accepted by anyone if found to be
copying or letting others copy.
Don’t wait for the last date to submit your assignment.
Question # 1
a) Can an object with zero acceleration have velocity? If no give a proof if yes give
an example.
b) Can an object with zero velocity have acceleration? If no give a proof if yes give
an example. Marks = 3+3
Question # 2
Look on the above figure and answer the following question.
