Are the following statement True (or) False?
(1) There are two types of motion.
(2) Uniform motion is motion at constant speed.
(3) Average velocity is a vector quantity.
(4) Acceleration is a scalar quantity.
(5) Displacement is the rate of change of velocity.
(6) Acceleration has only magnitude.
(7) If the speed changes, there will be acceleration.
(8) The motion at constant acceleration is the uniform motion.
(9) The SI unit of acceleration is cm s-1.
(10) Motion along a straight line with constant acceleration is linear motion.
(11) When a body is in motion there is a change in position.
(12) The change in position along a certain direction is called distance.
(13) The velocity gives the speed and the direction of the body.
(14) Displacement has only magnitude.
(15) Speed is a vector quantity.
(16) Average velocity has only direction.
(17) Acceleration is the rate of change of speed.
(18) Average speed and average velocity have the same unit.
(19) Speed may not be measured in ms-2.
(20) Although speed changes , there is no acceleration.
(21) The speed of a body tell us how far it travels during every unit of time.
(22) The slope of the displacement time graph gives the acceleration of the body .
(23) If the speed changes, the velocity also changes.
(24) The units of sp
