In $$1.0\,s,$$ a particle goes from point $$A$$ to point $$B,$$ moving in a semicircle of radius $$1.0 \,m$$ (see Figure). The magnitude of the average velocity-
272.
A particle is moving eastwards with a velocity of $$5\,m{s^{ - 1}}.$$ In 10 seconds the velocity changes to $$5\,m{s^{ - 1}}$$ northwards. The average acceleration in this time is
A
$$\frac{1}{2}m{s^{ - 2}}$$ towards north
B
$$\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}m{s^{ - 2}}$$ towards north - east
C
$$\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}m{s^{ - 2}}$$ towards north - west
D
zero
Answer :
$$\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}m{s^{ - 2}}$$ towards north - west
We should know the displacement in this time.
$$\eqalign{
& \overrightarrow S = \overrightarrow u t + \frac{{\overrightarrow a {t^2}}}{2}\,\left( {{\text{we take upward as positive}}} \right) \cr
& S = 30 \times 4 - 10 \times 4 \times \frac{4}{2} = 40\,m. \cr} $$
The average velocity will be $$10\,m/\sec .$$

The position $$x$$ of a particle w.r.t. time $$t$$ along $$x$$-axis is given by $$x = 9{t^2} - {t^3},$$ where $$x$$ is in metre and $$t$$ in $$sec.$$ What will be the position of this particle when it achieves maximum speed along the $$+ x$$ direction?
Given, the position $$x$$ of a particle w.r.t. time $$t$$ along $$x$$-axis
$$x = 9{t^2} - {t^3}\,......\left( {\text{i}} \right)$$
Differentiating Eq. (i), w.r.t. time, we get speed, i.e.
$$\eqalign{
& v = \frac{{dx}}{{dt}} = \frac{d}{{dt}}\left( {9{t^2} - {t^3}} \right) \cr
& {\text{or}}\,v = 18t - 3{t^2}\,......\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right) \cr} $$
Again differentiating Eq. (ii), with respect to time, we get acceleration, i.e.
$$\eqalign{
& a = \frac{{dv}}{{dt}} = \frac{d}{{dt}}\left( {18t - 3{t^2}} \right) \cr
& {\text{or,}}\,a = 18 - 6t\,......\left( {{\text{iii}}} \right) \cr} $$
Now, when speed of particle is maximum, its acceleration is zero, i.e.
$$\eqalign{
& a = 0 \cr
& {\text{i}}{\text{.e}}{\text{.}}\,18 - 6t = 0 \cr
& {\text{or}}\,t = 3\,s \cr} $$
Putting in Eq. (i), we obtain position of particle at the time
$$\eqalign{
& x = 9{\left( 3 \right)^2} - {\left( 3 \right)^3} \cr
& = 9\left( 9 \right) - 27 \cr
& = 81 - 27 \cr
& = 54\,m \cr} $$

A stone is dropped into a well in which the level of water is $$h$$ below the top of the well. If $$v$$ is velocity of sound, the time $$T$$ after which the splash is heard is given by
A
$$T = \frac{{2h}}{v}$$
B
$$T = \sqrt {\left( {\frac{{2h}}{g}} \right)} + \frac{h}{v}$$
C
$$T = \sqrt {\left( {\frac{{2h}}{v}} \right)} + \frac{h}{g}$$
D
$$T = \sqrt {\left( {\frac{h}{{2g}}} \right)} + \frac{{2h}}{v}$$
Time taken by the stone to reach the water level $${t_1} = \sqrt {\frac{{2h}}{g}} $$
Time taken by sound to come to the mouth of the well, $${t_2} = \frac{h}{v}$$
$$\therefore $$ Total time $${t_1} + {t_2} = \sqrt {\frac{{2h}}{g}} + \frac{h}{v}$$

D
$$\frac{{{u^2}{{\tan }^2}\theta }}{{g\cos \theta }}$$

If $${V_r}$$ is the velocity of rain falling vertically and $${V_m}$$ is the velocity of a man walking on a level road, and $$\theta $$ is the angle with vertical at which he should hold the umbrella to protect himself, than the relative velocity of rain w.r.t. the man is given by:
