Total time = `t_(1)+t_(2)=(l)/(2upsilon_(1))+(l)/(2upsilon_(2))=(l)/(2)[(1)/(upsilon_(1))+(1)/(upsilon_(2))]`
We know that, `upsilon_(av)` = Average speed

In the question number 52, the speed with which the stone hits the ground isA. 15 m `s^(-1)`B. 90 m `s^(-1)`C. 99 m `s^(-1)`D. 49 m `s^(-1)`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Motion along horizontal direction, `downarrow +ve`
`u_(x) = 15 ms^(-1), a_(x) = 0`
`v_(x) = u_(x) + a_(x)t = 15 + 0 xx 10 = 15 ms^(-1)`
Motion along vertical direction,
`u_(y) = 0, a_(y) = g`
`v_(y) = u_(y) + a_(y)t = 0 + 9.8 xx 10 = 98 ms^(-1)`
`therefore` Speed of the stone when it hits the ground is
`v = sqrt(v_(x)^(2) + v_(y)^(2)) = sqrt((15)^(2) + (98)^(2)) ~~ 99 ms^(-1)`

When two objects move uniformly towards each other, they get `4` metres closer each second and when they move uniformly in the same direction with original speed, they get `4` metres closer each `5s`. Find their individual speeds.

Answer» Let the speeds be `v_(1)` and `v_(2)` and let `v_(1)gt v_(2)`.
In First case:
Relative velocity, `v_(1)+v_(2)=4/1=4 m//s`…..(1)
In Second case:

A partachutist after bailing out falls 50 m without friction. When parachute opens, it decelerates at `2 ms^(-2)`. At what height did he bail outA. 293 mB. 111 mC. 91 mD. 182 m

Answer» Correct Answer - A
After bailing out from point A partachutist falls freely under gravity. The velcity acquired by it will be `upsilon`.
From `upsilon^(2)+2as=0+2xx9.8xx50=980`
`["As "u=0, a=9.8 ms^(-2), s=50 m]`
At point B, parachute opens and it moves with retardation of `2 ms^(-2)` are reach at ground (Point C with velocity of `3 ms^(-1)`). For the part BC by applying the equastion `upsilon^(2)=u^(2)+2as`
`upsilon=3 ms^(-1), u = sqrt(989)ms^(-1), a=-2 ms^(-2), s=h`
`rArr (3)^(2)=(sqrt(980))^(2)+2xx(-2)xxh`
`rArr 9=980-4h`
`rArr h=(980-9)/(4)=(971)/(4)=242.7 ~== 243m`
So, the total height by which parachutist bails out
`=50+243=293m`

From above two equations, `h=122.5 m`
250.

Two projectiles `A` and `B` are fired simultaneously as shown in figure. They collide in air at point at time `t`.Then A. `t(u_(1)cos theta_(1)-u_(2)cos theta_(2))=20`B. `t(u_(1)sin theta_(1)-u_(2)sin theta_(2))=10`C. Both (a) and (b) are correctD. Both (a) and (b) are wrong

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`X_(A)=X_(B)`
`:. 10+(u_(1)cos theta_(1))t=30-(u_(2)cos theta_(2))t`
or `t(u_(1)cos theta_(1)+u_(2)cos theta_(2))=20`
`y_(A)=y_(B)`
`:. 10+(u_(1)sin theta_(1))t-1/2"gt"^(2)`
`=20+(u_(2)sin theta_(2))t-1/2"gt"^(2)`
`:. (u_(1)sin theta_(1)-u_(2)sin theta_(2))t=10`
