Problem 1: A piece of wood and a bullet collide, with the bullet becoming embedded in the wood. The combined system then travels upwards.
-
Given:
- Mass of wood (mw) = 0.03 kg
- Mass of bullet (mb) = 0.02 kg
- Initial height of wood (hw) = 100 m
- Initial velocity of bullet (vb) = 100 m/s
- Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²
- Find: Maximum height reached by the combined system above the top of the building.
-
Given:
-
Problem 2: A car overtakes a bus traveling in the same direction.
-
Given:
- Initial distance between car and bus (d) = 200 m
- Acceleration of bus (ab) = 2 m/s²
- Acceleration of car (ac) = 4 m/s²
- Find: Time it takes for the car to catch up with the bus.
-
Given:
-
Problem 3: A particle is thrown vertically upwards from a tower and then falls to the ground.
-
Given:
- Height of the tower (H)
- Initial upwards velocity (u)
- Time to reach the ground (tg) = n * time to reach the highest point (th)
- Find: The relationship between H, u, and n.
-
Given:
-
Problem 4: Two balls are thrown vertically from a building, one upwards and the other downwards.
-
Given:
- Ball A is thrown upwards.
- Ball B is thrown downward.
- Final velocities of A and B upon reaching the ground are vA and vB, respectively.
- Find: The relationship between vA and vB.
-
Given:
-
Problem 5: A ball is dropped from the top of a tower.
-
Given:
- Height of the tower (h)
- Time taken to reach the ground (T)
- Find: The position of the ball at time T/3.
-
Given:
-
Problem 6: Two trains with different lengths and speeds are traveling on the same track.
-
Given:
- Passenger train length (Lp) = 60 m
- Passenger train speed (vp) = 80 km/h
- Freight train length (Lf) = 120 m
- Freight train speed (vf) = 30 km/h
- Find: The ratio of the time the passenger train takes to completely cross the freight train when they are traveling in the same and opposite directions.
-
Given:
-
Problem 7: A parachutist jumps out of a plane.
-
Given:
- Distance traveled without friction (d1) = 50 m
- Deceleration when the parachute opens (a) = -2 m/s²
