Question :1

Is it true or wrong to say that, a ball will land at the same time if you
drop it straight down from the top of a tower or if you throw it out
horizontally? Either yes or no explain it with a solid reason.
Answer:
Statement:
No, it is not true to say that a ball will land at the same time if you drop
it straight down from the top of a tower or if you throw it out
horizontally.
Summary:
When you drop a ball straight down from the top of a tower, the only
force acting on it is gravity, which pulls the ball downward towards the
ground. The ball accelerates at a rate of 9.8 m/s^2 (approx.) due to
gravity, and its speed increases as it falls towards the ground.
On the other hand, when you throw a ball out horizontally from the top
of a tower, in addition to the force of gravity, there is also a horizontal
component of velocity that propels the ball forward. The ball follows a
curved path known as a projectile motion and its trajectory is influenced
by both the force of gravity and the initial horizontal velocity.
Result:
As a result, the time it takes for a ball to land after being thrown
horizontally is longer than the time it takes for a ball dropped straight
down to land. This is because the horizontal velocity of the ball causes it
to travel a greater horizontal distance before it hits the ground, even
though both balls have fallen the same vertical distance.
Hence as result of the above statement it is not true to say that a ball will
land at the same time if you drop it straight down from the top of a tower
or if you throw it out horizontally.

Question 2:
Calculate the X & Y component of car’s average velocity, by using the
data given in the following figure
Answer:
According to the given figure, to calculate the X and Y components of
the car's average velocity, we are given the following data:

Given Data:
Delta x = 5.0 m (horizontal displacement)
Delta y = 4.0 m (vertical displacement)
Time (t) = 3.0 s
Formula:
Using the formulas for average velocity components:
Average velocity in the x-direction:
(Delta x) = Delta x / t
Average velocity in the y-direction
(Delta y) = Delta y / t
Substituting the given values:
Delta x = 5.0 m / 3.0 s = 1.67 m/s
Delta y = 4.0 m / 3.0 s = 1.33 m/s
Conclusion:
Therefore, the X-component of the car's average velocity is
approximately 1.67 m/s, and the Y-component of the car's average
velocity is approximately 1.33 m/s.
Question :3
A body is moving at 30 km/h. While veering to the right, it keeps
moving at the same speed. As there force involved in this case or not.
Either yes or no explain it with a solid reason.
Answer:
No, there is no force involved in this case. When a body is moving at a
constant speed and veering to the right, it means that it is undergoing
uniform circular motion. In uniform circular motion, the body
continuously changes direction but maintains a constant speed.

Newton’s First Law of Motion:

According to Newton's first law of motion, an object will continue

moving in a straight line at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an
external force. In this case, since the body is maintaining a constant
speed and veering to the right without any external force acting upon it,
we can conclude that there is no force involved.

Property of Inertia:

The body's motion in this example is a result of its inertia. Inertia is the
property of an object to resist changes in its motion. Therefore, the
body's tendency to keep moving at the same speed causes it to veer to
the right without the need for an additional force.

Conclusion
In summary, when a body moves at a constant speed while veering to
the right, there is no force involved. The body's motion is a consequence
of its inertia and the absence of external forces acting upon it.
Question :4
Answer:
Given Data according to figure:

Force applied (F) = 168 N (upward)

Mass of the suitcase (m) = 17 kg

Weight of the suitcase (mg) = 166.6 N (downward)

Method:
To calculate the magnitude and direction of the suitcase's acceleration,
we need to consider the net force acting on the suitcase.The net force is
the vector sum of all the forces acting on the suitcase. In this case, we
have the upward force (F) and the downward force (mg).

Formula:

The net force can be calculated as:

Net force = F - mg

Solution:

Substituting the given values, we have:

Net force = 168 N - 166.6 N

Net force ≈ 1.4 N (upward)

According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force acting on an

object is equal to its mass multiplied by its acceleration:

Net force = ma

Rearranging the equation to solve for acceleration (a), we have:

a = Net force / m

Substituting the values, we get:

a = 1.4 N / 17 kg

a ≈ 0.082 m/s²
Conclusion:
Therefore, the magnitude of the suitcase's acceleration is approximately
0.082 m/s², directed upward.
