The initital speed of an arrow shot from s bow, at an elevation of `30^(@)` , is ` 15 m s^(-1)` , Find the velocity when it hits the ground back. |
Answer» Here ` v_(0) 15 " m s"^(-1)`, angle of projection , ` theta_(0) = 30^(@)` Therefore, ` v_(0x) = v_(0_ cos theta_(0)` ` = 15 cos(30 ^(@))` ` = ( 15 sqrt3)/2 " m s"^(-1)` And ` v_(0y) = v_(0)sin theta_(0)` ` = 15/2 m s ^(-1)` Horizontal component of velocity remians constant throughout the fight i.e. ` v_(x) = v_(0x) = (15 sqrt3)/2 ms^(-1)` Vertical component of velocity is given by ` v_(y) = v_(0) sin theta_(0) - gt ` Put ` t= T_(f) = ( 2v_(0) sin theta_(0))/g ` ` Rightarrow v_(y) = v_(0) sin theta_(0) -g xx ( 2v_(0) sin theta_(0))/ g` ` v_(y) = - v_(0) sintheta_(0)` `1 v_(y) - 15/2 m s^(-1)` Thus, total velocity ` v = sqrt(v_(x)^(2) + v_(y)^(2))` ` sqrt( ( 15^(2)xx 3)/4 + 15^(2)/4))` `v = 15 m s ^(-1)` Let the final velocity make and angle ` theta` with the positive x - axis , then ` tetha = tan^(-1) (v_(y)/v_(x))` ` theta = tan^(-1) (((-15)/2)/(15 sqrt3/2))` ` = tan^(-1) ((-1)/sqrt3)` ` theta = - 30^(@)` |

When we analyse the projectile motion from any accelerated frame `O` as `vecr_(o),vecu_(o)` and `veca_(o)` respectively, express the following terms, `vecr_(pO)+veca_(p)-vecr_(O),vecu_(pO)=vecu_(p)-vecu_(O)` and `veca_(pO)=veca_(p)-veca_(O)` where `P` stands for projectile. Then using the following kinematical equations of the projectile (For constant acceleration) relative to the accelerating frame ,we have `vecS_(pO)=vecu_(pO)t+1/2veca_(pO)t^(2),vecv_(pO)` `=vecu_(pO)+veca_(pO)t` and `v_(pO)^(2)=u_(pO)^(2)+2veca.vecs_pO` Using the above expressions, anwer the following question:A projectile has initial velocity `v_(0)` realtive to the large plate which is moving with a constant upward acceleration a. Which of the following remains equal for the observers `A` and `B`? A. Maximum heightB. RangeC. Time of flightD. Angle of projection |
Answer» Correct Answer - D Angle of projection remains equal for both `A&B`. |

Refering to Q.1, velocity of the projectile relative to `B` ofter some time A. `ltv_(0) "at an angle" thetalttheta_(0)`B. `gtv_(0) "at an angle" thetagttheta_(0)`C. `gtv_(0) "at an angle" theta=theta_(0)`D. `v_(0) "at an angle" theta=theta_(0)` |
Answer» Correct Answer - D Here`B` is ground frame, w.r.t `B` projection velocity will be greater than `V_(0)`. Hence when `thetagttheta_(0)` projectile velocity will be greater than `V_(0)`. |

Which of the following represents uniformly accelerated motion ?A. `x=sqrt((t+a)/(b))`B. `x=(t+a)/(b)`C. `t=sqrt((x+a)/(b))`D. `x=sqrt(t+a)` |
Answer» Correct Answer - C `t=sqrt((x+a)/(b)) or (x+a)=bt^(2) or x=-a+bt^(2)` Comparing this equation with genral equation of uniformly accelerated motion, `s=s_(i)+ut+(1)/(2)at^(2)` we see that `s_(i)=-a, u=0` and acceleration = 2b. |

The displacement (x) of a particle depends on time t as `x=alpha t^(2)-beta t^(3)`. Choose the incorrect statements from the following.A. The particle never returns to its starting pointB. The particle comes to rest after time `(2alpha)/(3beta)`C. The initial velocity of the particle is zeroD. The initial acceleration of the particle is zero |
Answer» Correct Answer - D x= 0 at t = 0 and `t = alpha//beta`. So, the particle returns to starting point at `t=alpha//beta`. `upsilon=(dx)/(dt)=2alpha t-3beta t^(2)` At t = 0, `upsilon = 0` i.e., initial velocity of particle is zero. `upsilon=0` at t = 0 and `t=(2alpha)/(3beta)` Thus, the particle comes to rest after time `t=2alpha//3beta rArr a=(d upsilon)/(dt)=2alpha-6beta t` At `t=0, a=2, a ne 0` |
