Homework
1- a worker with spikes on his shoes pulls with a constant
horizontal force of magnitude 20 N on a box of mass 40 kg
resting on the flat, frictionless surface of a frozen lake. What
is the acceleration of the box ?
2- If we take east as x – axis and north as y - axis, then
displacement = 20 i +10j. Find the magnitude of displacement.
3- A man walks on a straight road from his home to a market
2.5 km away with a speed of 5 km/hr. Finding the market
closed, he instantly turns and walks back home with a speed
of 7.5 km/hr. Find The average speed of the man over the
interval of time o to 40 min.
4- The motion of a particle is described by the equation x = a
+ bt where a =15cm and b = 3cm. find the velocity at time 3
sec.
5- The displacement of the particle is given by y = a+ bt + ct
dt'. Find the initial velocity and acceleration.
6- A particle is moving eastwards with velocity of 5 m/sec. In
10 sec the velocity changes to 5 m/sec northwards, What is
the average acceleration and direction?
V, = 5 m/sec
VI=5 m/ sec
7- If a body having starts moving from rest with uniform
acceleration 8 m/sec'. Find the velocity and distance travelled
by it after 8 sec.
8- If a body is thrown up with the velocity of 15 m/sec. Find the
maximum height and the distance after 4 sec.
9- A bowling ball of mass 7.5 kg travelling at 10 m secrolls off a
horizontal table 1 m high. (Assume the acceleration due to gravity is
10 m sec, and the effects of air resistance may be ignored unless
otherwise stated.)
a Calculate the ball's horizontal velocity just as it strikes the floor.
b What is the vertical velocity of the ball as it strikes the floor?
c Calculate the velocity of the ball as it reaches the floor.
d What time interval has elapsed between the ball leaving the table
and striking the floor?
e Calculate the horizontal distance travelled by the ball as it falls.
