[1] When any body falls under gravity,the body will move in vertical downward direction towards the centre of earth under a constant acceleration called acceleration due to gravity .As per the question, the rock falls to earth.

Hence,the correct option to it is A] It accelerates as it falls.

7] When a body moves with constant speed in a circular path,it's direction changes continuously which leads to an acceleration.

Hence the correct answer to the question is C)A car driving straight along a highway at a constant speed.

8] Speed is a scalar quantity as it has only magnitude while velocity is a vector quantity as it has both magnitude and direction for its specification.

Hence,the correct answer to this question is C)velocity is a vector and requires a direction.

9]A unit of length in the metric system will be metre or its multiples.

Hence,the correct answer to the question is B)kilometer.

10] A car taking a round curve will experience an acceleration called centripetal acceleration which is required to keep the car along the circular curve.

Hence,the correct answer to the question is B)a car that rounds a curve at a constant speed

11]The initial velocity of car is u =0

   The final velocity of car is v= 20 m/s

   The time taken t= 3.5 s

From equation of kinematics we know that-

                                          v=u+at

                                         20=0×t+3.5a

Hence,the correct answer to the question is B] 5.7.

12] Any body under free fall accelerates with acceleration due to gravity.

Hence,the correct answer to the question is C)gradually more in each picture.

13] Milt moves 100 m homestretch due east and 100 m backstretch due west.

The time taken by him is 12.2 seconds. The homestretch average velocity and backstretch average velocity are anti parallel to each other as they opposite in direction.

Hence the correct answer to the question will be the homestretch and backstretch have velocities with the same in their magnitude.

14]The distance given here is constant for each lap i.e 400 m.

It has been told that he is taking 5 seconds less in each lap.

We know that average speed is the ratio of total distance travelled to total time taken.As time is decreasing in each lap,so its average speed will be more for each lap.

Hence the correct answer to the question is C] increases and inversely.

answer: the metamorphic rocks are formed when they are exposed to high pressure and high temperatures. this happens when one of the earth's plates comes in contact with the other plate by traveling in opposite directions, straight into each other or slipping under one another. the friction that is caused by this activity results in   melting of rocks and when it cools they are known as metamorphic rocks. this process needs a controlled amount of pressure and temperature otherwise it may turn into magma.
