  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    The average velocity of a freely falling body is numerically equal to half of the acceleration due to gravity. The velocity of the body as it reaches the ground is numerically equal to:
    Solution
    We have average velocity $$= \dfrac{g}{2}$$ 
    Since it is a free fall, average velocity, $$v=\dfrac{S}{t}= \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2}{t} = \dfrac{g}{2}$$, where $$t$$ is the time of descent and initial velocity is zero.

    We know that for a free fall, velocity with which it reaches the ground: $$V = gt$$, where $$t$$ is time of descent . 

    Substituting the same in the above equation for average velocity: 
    $$\dfrac{V}{2} = \dfrac{g}{2} $$
    $$\therefore V=g$$
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    A body leaving a certain point $$O$$ moves with an acceleration which is constant. At the end of the first second after it left $$O$$, its velocity is $$1.5m/\sec$$. At the end of the sixth second after it left $$O$$ the body stops momentarily and begins to move backwards. The distance traveled by the body before it stops momentarily is
    Solution
    $$v=u+at$$
    $$1.5=u+5a...........(i)$$
    $$0=u+6a.............(ii)$$
    From (i) and (ii)
    $$0=1.5+a(6-5)$$
    $$a=-1.5m/s^2$$
    Om substituting $$a=-1.5m/s^2$$ in equation (ii)
    $$0=u+6(-1.5)$$
    $$0=u-9$$
    $$u=9m/s$$
    The distance traveled by the body in its forward journey is $$s_1$$ can be calculated as follows,
    $$s_1=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$$
    $$s_1=9\times6+\frac{1}{2}\times(-1.5)\times6^2$$
    $$s_1=54+(-1.5\times18)$$
    $$s_1=27m$$
    The distance traveled by  the body in its forward journey $$(s_1)$$= the distance traveled by the body in its backward journey$$(s_2)=27m$$
    So, the total distance traveled by the body in forward journey and its backward journey$$=s_1+s_2=27+27=54m$$
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    A driver takes $$0.20s$$ to apply the brakes after he sees a need for it. This is called the reaction time of the driver. If he is driving a car at a speed of $$54 km/h$$ and the brakes causes a deceleration of $$ 6.0 \ { m }/{ { s }^{ 2 } }$$, find the distance traveled by the car after he sees the need to put the brakes on.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    A train accelerates from rest at a constant rate $$a_{1}$$ for distance $$S_{1}$$ and time $$t_{1}$$. After that it decelerates to rest at a constant rate $$a_{2}$$ for distance $$S_{2}$$ at time $$t_{2}$$. Then the correct relation among the following is
    Solution
    Given that the particle was at rest at $$t\ =\ 0$$
    $$s_1 = u_1t + \frac {1}{2} a_1t_1^2    ....  (1)$$
    $$\Rightarrow v_1 = u_1 + a_1t_1    ....   (2)$$
    $$v_1 \rightarrow $$ final speed after $$t_1$$

    Now, final speed after this is $$ v_2$$
    And $$v_1 = v_2$$
    $$\Rightarrow v_2 = u_2 - a_2t_2$$
    $$\Rightarrow v_1 = a_2t_2  ....  (3)$$
    $$\Rightarrow v_2^2 = u_2^2 - 2a_2s_2$$
    $$\Rightarrow v_1^2 = 2a_2s_2$$

    From (2), $$a_1^2t_1^2 = 2a_2s_2 $$

    $$\Rightarrow s_2 = \dfrac {a_1^2t_1^2}{2a_2}$$

    $$\Rightarrow s_2 = \dfrac {a_1 (2s_a)}{2\frac {a}{2}a_2}$$

    $$\Rightarrow  \dfrac {eq^2 (2)}{eq^n (3)} = \dfrac {a_1t_1}{a_2t_2} = 1$$

    $$\Rightarrow \dfrac {a_1}{a_2} = \dfrac {t_2}{t_1}$$

    $$\Rightarrow \dfrac {a_1}{a_2} = \dfrac {t_2}{t_1} = \dfrac {s_2}{s_1}$$
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    A proton in a uniform electric field moves along a straight line with constant acceleration starting from rest. If it attains a velocity $$4\times 10^3$$ $$km/s$$ at a distance of $$2\;cm$$, the time required to reach the given velocity is :
    Solution
    $$v^2 = u^2 + 2as$$
    $$u = 0, s = 2 \times 10^{-2} mt$$
    $$a = \dfrac {v^2}{2s} = \dfrac {(4 \times 10^3 \times 10^3)^2}{2 \times 2 \times 10^{-2}} m/s^2$$
    $$a = 4 \times 10^{14} $$

    Now, $$ v = u + at$$
    $$\dfrac {v}{a} = t$$
    $$t = \dfrac{4 \times 10^6}{4 \times 10^{14}} = 10^{-8}s$$ 
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    From a building two balls A & B are thrown such that A is thrown upwards and B downwards (both vertically with same speed). If $$V_{A}$$ and $$V _{B}$$ are their respective velocities on reaching the ground then :
    Solution
    For A:
    $$s_A = vt_1 - \dfrac {1}{2} gt_1^2$$
    $$s_B = -vt_2 - \dfrac {1}{2} gt_2^2$$

    We have, $$s_A = s_B$$

    So, on solving we get:
    $$t_2 - t_1 = \dfrac {2v}{g}$$     ...........(1)
    Also,
    $$v_A = u_A - gt_1$$
    $$v_B = u_B - gt_2$$

    Using $$(1)$$, we get:

    $$  \dfrac {v_A}{v_B} = \dfrac {v - gt_1}{-v -gt_2}$$$$= \dfrac {v - gt_1}{-v -g (t_1 + \dfrac {2v}{g})} = 1$$

    $$\Rightarrow v_A = v_B$$
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    It takes one minute for a passenger standing on an escalator to reach the top. If the escalator does not move it takes him 3 minutes to walk up. How long will it take for the passenger to arrive at the top if he walks up the moving escalator?
    Solution
    Let the distance to the top be d.
     therefore  the speed of the man with escalator not moving $$=(\dfrac{d}{1}) m/min$$
     therefore the speed of the escalator with the man at rest$$=(\dfrac{d}{3})$$m/min
     when both the main and the escalator are moving, effective speed$$= (\dfrac{d}{3} +d)$$ m/min
    $$= \dfrac{4d}{3}$$ m/min
     Therefore time taken when both men and escalator are moving$$= \dfrac{distance}{speed} = \dfrac{d}{\dfrac{4d}{3}}$$
    $$\dfrac{3}{4} min  = 45$$seconds
    Hence (B) is correct answer
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Two cars are travelling towards each other on a straight road at velocities $$15\ m/s$$ and $$16\ m/s$$ respectively. When they are $$150\ m$$ apart, both the drivers apply the brakes and the cars decelerate at $$3\ m/s^{2}$$ and $$4\ m/s^{2}$$ until they stop. Separation between the cars when they come to rest is :
    Solution
    We know, $$v^2=u^2-2as$$

    Given,

     Initial velocity of car 1, $$u_1=15\ m/s$$, Acceleration, $$a=3\ m/s^2$$

     Initial velocity of car 2, $$u_2=16\ m/s$$, Acceleration, $$a=4\ m/s^2$$

    For car 1,

    Final Velocity, $$v_1 = 0\ m/s$$

    $$-15^2 = -2(3) \times s$$

    $$\therefore s_1= 37.5$$ m

    For car 2,

    Final Velocity, $$v_2 = 0\ m/s$$

    $$-16^2 = -2(4) \times s$$

    $$\therefore s_2= 32$$ m

    Total displacement,

    $$s_1+s_2 = 37.5+32 = 69.5$$ m

    $$\therefore$$ separation between them,

    $$= 150-69.5 =80.5$$ m
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    From an elevated point P, a stone is projected vertically upwards. When it reaches a distance $$d$$ below P, its velocity is doubled. The greatest height reached by it above P is :
    Solution
    $$v -u =gt$$
    $$2u-u =gt$$

    $$\Rightarrow t = \dfrac{u}{g}$$ where, t is the time to go from u (downward) to 2u (downward).

    $$t_{total} =  \dfrac{2u}{g} + \dfrac{u}{g}= \dfrac{3u}{g}$$ since $$\dfrac{u}{g}$$ is time to go up and same time to come down.

    $$(2u)^2 - u^2 = 2g d$$

    $$\Rightarrow d = \dfrac{3u^2}{2g}$$
    Maximum height, $$H = \dfrac {u^2}{2g} = \dfrac {d}{3}$$
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    A bus starts from rest and moves with a uniform acceleration of $$1\;ms^{-2}$$. A boy $$10\;m$$ behind the bus at the start runs at a constant speed and catches the bus in $$10\;s$$. Speed of the boy is :
    Solution


    Solution 2

    Distance travelled by bus in $$10s \Rightarrow \dfrac {1}{2} \times 1 \times 10^2 = 50 m$$
    D $$=$$ Distance boy has to cover $$= 10 + 50 = 60 m$$
    Speed of boy $$=\dfrac {D}{T} = \dfrac {60}{10} = 6\ m/s$$
