A train starts from rest with constant acceleration `a=1 m//s^(2)` A passenger at a distance S from the train runs at this maximum velocity of `10 m//s` to catch the train at the same moment at which the train starts. Find the speed of the train when the passenger catches it for the critical distance:A. `8 m//s`B. `10 m//s`C. `12 m//s`D. `15 m//s`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
For critical distance, passenger catches the train in time `t=(V_(P))/(a_(t))` So, required velocity of train `a_(t).t`
`=a_(t)((v_(P))/(a_(t)))=V_(P)//2 =10 m//sec`
3.

A train starts from rest with constant acceleration `a=1 m//s^(2)` A passenger at a distance S from the train runs at this maximum velocity of `10 m//s` to catch the train at the same moment at which the train starts. If `S=25.5` m and passenger keeps running, find the time in which he will catch the train:A. 5 secB. 4 secC. 3 secD. `2sqrt(2)` sec

Answer» Correct Answer - C
At time t, `X_(t)` and `X_(p)` are coordinates of train and passenger respectively.
`X_(t)=(1)/(2)a_(1)t^(2)` and `X_(p)=v_(P)t-S`
If passenger catches the train, ,brgt `X_(t)=X_(p)`
or `(1)/(2)a_(1)t^(2)=v_(P)t-S or t=(V_(p)-sqrt(V_(P)^(2)-2a_(1)S))/(a_(1))`
`=(10-sqrt((10)^(2)-2(1)(25.5)))/(1)=3` seconds
4.

A train starts from rest with constant acceleration `a=1 m//s^(2)` A passenger at a distance S from the train runs at this maximum velocity of `10 m//s` to catch the train at the same moment at which the train starts. Find the critical distance `S_(c)` for which passenger will take the ten seconds time to catch the trainA. 50 mB. 35 mC. 30 mD. 25 m

Answer» Correct Answer - A
The critical distance `S_(c)` for which passenger will take the ten seconds time to catch the train is given
by `S_(C)=(v_(P)^(2))/(2a_(1))`
The time is 10 seconds if `V_(P)^(2)-2a_(1)S=0`
`S_(C)=(V_(P)^(2))/(2a_(t))=((10)^(2))/(2(1))=50m`

10.

In the question number 67, the time taken by the ball to reach the ground isA. 2 sB. 3 sC. 5 sD. 7 s

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Let `t_1` be the time taken by the ball to reach the highest point.
here, v = 0, u = `20 m s^(-1), a = - g = - 10 m s^(-2), t = t_1`
As `v = u + at`
`therefore 0 = 20 + (-10)t_1` or `t_1 = 2 s`
Taking vertical downward motion of the ball from the highest point to ground.
Here, u = 0, `a = +g = 10 m s^(-2)`, S = 20 m + 25 m = 45 m, `t = t_2`
As `S = ut + 1/2 at^(2)` `therefore` 45 = `0 + 1/2(10)t^(2)_2`
`t^(2)_2 = 45 xx 2/10 = 90/10 = 9` or `t_2 = 3 s`
Total time taken by the ball to reach the ground = `t_1 + t_2 = 2 s + 3 s = 5 s`
11.

The velocity of a particle at an instant is `10 m s^(-1)`. After 3 s its velocity will becomes `16 m s^(-1)`. The velocity at 2 s, before the given instant will beA. `6 m s^(-1)`B. `4 m s^(-1)`C. `2 m s^(-1)`D. `1 m s^(-1)`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Here, u = `10 m s^(-1), t = 3 s, v = 16 m s^(-1)`
`a = v - u/t = 16 - 10/3 = 2 m s^(-2)`.
Now velocity at 2 s, before the given instant
`10 = u + 2 xx 2` `therefore` u = 6 m `s^(-1)` (since v = u + at)

Two trains ` A and B` of length `400 m` each are moving on two parallel tracks with a uniform speed of ` 72 km h^(-1)` in the same direction with ` A` ahead of `B` .The driver of B decides to overtake Aand accelerates by 1m/s².if after 50s ,the guard of B just passes the driver of A , what was the original distance between them ?A. 750 mB. 1000 mC. 1250 mD. 2250 m

Answer» Correct Answer - C
For train A,
`u_A = 72 km h^(-1) = 72 xx 5/18 m s^(-1) = 20 m s^(-1) , a_A = 0`, t = 50 s,
`therefore S_A = u_(A)t - (20)(50) = 1000 m`
For train B,
`U_b = 72 km h^(-1) = 72 xx 5/18 m s^(-1) = 20 m s^(-1)`
`a_B = 1 m s^(-2)` , t = 50 s
`therefore S_B = u_(B)t + 1/2 a_(B)t^(2)`
`= (20 xx 50) + 1/2 xx 1 xx (50)^(2) = 2250` m
Original distance between A and `B = S_B - S_A = 2250 m - 1000 m = 1250 m`
13.

Two trains A and B of length 400 m each are moving on two parallel tracks with a uniform speed of `72 km h^(-1)` in the same direction, with A ahead of B. The driver of B decides to overtake A and accelerates by `1 ms^(-2)`. If after 50s, the guard of B just brushed past the driver of A, what was the original distance between them ?

Answer» For train A:
Initial velocity, u = 72 km/h = 20 m/s
Time, t = 50 s
Acceleration, `a_I = 0` (Since it is moving with a uniform velocity)
From second equation of motion, distance `(s_|)`covered by train A can be obtained as:
`s_|=ut+1/2a_|t^2`= 20 × 50 + 0 = 1000 m
For train B:
Initial velocity, u = 72 km/h = 20 m/s
Acceleration, `a = 1 m//s^2`
Time, t = 50 s
From second equation of motion, distance `(s_(||))`covered by train A can be obtained as:
`S_(||)=ut+1/2at^2`
`=20xx50+1/2xx1xx(50)^2=2250 m`
Hence, the original distance between the driver of train A and the guard of train B is 2250 – 1000  = 1250 m

Prove that the distances traversed during equal intervals of time by a body falling from rest, stand to one another in the same ratio as the odd numbers beginning with unity [namely 1: 3: 5: …………….].

Answer» Let us divide the time interval of motion of an object under free fall into many equal intervals `tau` and find out the distance traversed during successive intervals of time. Since initial velocity is zero. We have
`y = - (1)/(2) g t^(2)`
Using this equation. we can calculate the position of the object after different time intervals, `0 , tau, 2 tau, 3 tau`.... which are given in second column of Table 3.2. If we take `(-1//2) g tau^(2)` as `y_(0)-`the position coordinate after first time interval `tau`, then third column gives the positions in the unit of `y_(0)`. The fourth column gives the distance traversed in successive `tau s`. we find that the distances are in the simple ratio `1 : 3 : 5 : 7 : 9 : 11`.... as shown in the last column. This law was established by Galileo Galilei (1564 - 1642) who was the first to make quantitative studies of free fall.

The given acceleration-time graph represents which of the following physical situation? A. A cricket ball moving with a uniform speed is hit with a bat for a very short time interval.B. A ball is falling freely from the top of a tower.C. A car moving with constant velocity on a straight road.D. A football is kicked into the air vertically upwards.

Answer» Correct Answer - A
The a-t graph shows that initially the body moves with uniform velocity. Its acceleration increases for a short time and then fails to zero and there after the body moves with a constant velocity. Such as physical situation arises when a cricket ball moving with a uniform speed is hit with a bat for a very short time interval.

A particle moving with a velocity equal to `0.4 m//s` is subjected to an acceleration of `0.15 m//s^(2)` for `2 s`. in a direction at the right angle to its direction of motion. The resultant velocity is

Answer» In vector form, 1 st equation of motion is
`vec(v) = vec(u) + vec(a)t`
So, `v = sqrt(u^(2) + (at)^(2) + 2u (at) cos theta)`
Here `u = 0.4 m//s, a = 0.15 m//s^(2), t = 2s` and `theta = 90^(@)`
So, `u = sqrt([(0.4)^(2) + (0.15 xx 2)^(2) + 0]) = 0.5 m//s`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`a=(dv)/(ds)v implies int_(0)^(S)a.ds=int_(u)^(v)v.dv=v^(2)-u^(2)`
`implies"Area under" a~s "curve"=v^(2)-u^(2)`
`implies((1)/(2)xx150xx22.5)-(1)/(2)(90xx13.5)=v^(2)-0`
`impliesv^(2)=75xx22.5-45xx13.5`
`impliesv=sqrt(75xx22.5-45xx13.5)implies46.47`

The figure shows a particle moving along x - axis subjected to three particles of acceleration (a). Rank the periods according to the increase they produce in the particle velocity, greatest first. A. B. C. D.

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Area of acceleration-time graph gives velocity. Area of region gives velocity of particles `m s^(-1)`
`v_1 = 2s xx (5 m)/s^(2) = 10 m s^(-1)`
Similarly, `v_2 = 4s xx (2)m//s^(2) = 8 m//s`
and `v_3 = 1s xx 7 m//s^(2)` = 7m/s
`therefore v_1 gt v_2 gt v_3`

Car `A` starts from a point `O` and moves with constant velocity `9 m//s`. After `2 s`, another car `B` begins its journey from `O` and follows car `A`. If car `B` starts from rest and moves under constant acceleration `4 m//s^(2)`, after how much time and at what distance from `O` the cars meet?

Answer» Here the cars starts at different timings. Let the cars meet after time t (from start of A) and at distance d from `O`. Car `B` will take time `(t-2)` sec.
Car `A` (uniform motion): `d=vt=9t …(i)`
Car `B` (accelerated motion): `d=0+1/2a(t-2)^(2)`
`=(1)/(2).4(t-2)^(2) ...(ii)`
From (i) and (ii), we get
`9t=2(t-2)^(2)`
`2t^(2)-17t+8=0`
Solving we get `t =8 s,1/2` s
`t=1/2 s` is not possible, because car `B` starts `2 s` later
`d=9t=9xx8=72m`

Answer» Correct Answer - 8
`t_(1)=t_(2)-t,v_(1)v_(2)=v,S=(1)/(2)a_(1)t_(1)^(2),S=(1)/(2)a_(2)t_(2)^(2)`
`v_(1)=a_(1)t_(1),v_(2)=a_(2)t_(2)impliesv_(2)+v=a_(1)t_(1)`
`impliesa_(2)t_(2)+v=a_(1)t_(1)=a_(1)t_(2)impliest_(2)=(v+a_(1)t)/(a_(1)-a_(2))`
`sqrt((a_(2))/(a_(1)))=(t_(1))/(t_(2))=1-(t)/(t_(2))rArr sqrt((a_(2))/(a_(1)))=1-(t(a_(1)-a_(2)))/((v+a_(1)t))`
