degree. Find the magnitude of each force.

Q14. An aircraft executes a horizontal loop at a speed of 720 km/hr. with its wings banked at 45 degree. What is the
radius of the loop?

Q15. Define and derive work energy principle.

SECTION C

Q16. Two resistors of resistance R1 =100  ± 3 ohm and R2 = 200 ± 4 ohm are connected in parallel. Find the equivalent
Resistance.
Q17. A body starting from rest accelerate uniformly along a straight line at the rate of 10 m/s² for 5 seconds. It moves for
2 s with a uniform velocity 50 m/s .Then, it retards uniformly and come to rest at 3 s. Draw velocity - time graph
of the body and find the total distance travelled by the body.

Q18. From the top of a tower 156.8 metre high a projectile is thrown up with a velocity of 39.2 m/s making an angle 30
degree with the horizontal direction. Find the distance from the foot of a tower where it strikes the ground and the time
taken by it to do so?

between the box and surface below it is 0.15.On a straight road ,the truck starts from rest and accelerates with 2 m/s².
At , what distance from the starting point does the box fall off the truck?

Q20. Illustrate the law of conservation of mechanical energy.
