1. Two particles are initially (at t = 0) located at a point A. Each of them now start to move with the
same constant speed u, the first particle moving clockwise on a circle of radius r and centre C and
the second on the straight line XY which is a tangent (see diagram) to the circle at A. When the
first particle reaches B, the end of the diameter from A, the relative velocity between the two
particles will be

u2 u
(A) zero (B) (C) 2u (D)
r 2

2. Two particles start together from a point O and slide down straight smooth wires inclined at 30°
and 60° to the vertical and in the same vertical plane and on the same side of vertical through O.
The relative acceleration of second with respect to first will be in magnitude and direction as:

(A) g/2 in the vertical direction (B) g 3 /2 inclined 45° to vertical

(C) g/ 3 inclined 60° to vertical (D g in the vertical direction

3. Man A sitting in a car moving at 54 km/hr observes a man B in front of the car crossing
perpendicularly the road of width 15 m in three seconds. Then the velocity of man B will be

(A) 10 10 m/s (B) 5 10 m/s (C) 5 m/s (D) 10 2 m/s

4. Two Particles instantaneously at A & B respectively 4.5 meters apart are moving with uniform
velocities as shown in the figure. The former towards B at 1.5 m/sec and the latter perpendicular
to AB at 1.125 m/sec. The instant when they are nearest is:
B'

A A' B
4.5 m

(A) 2 sec (B) 3 sec (C) 4 sec (D)1 sec

5. Two boats were going down stream with different velocities. When one overtook the other a
plastic
ball was dropped from one of the boats. Some time later both boats turned back simultaneously
& went at the same speeds as before (relative to the water) towards the spot where the ball had
been dropped. Which boat will reach the ball first?
(A) the boat which has greater velocity (relative to water)
(B) the boat which has lesser velocity (relative to water)
(C) both will reach the ball simultaneously
(D cannot be decided unless we know the actual values of the velocities and the time after which
they turned around.

6. A boy standing on a horizontally moving platform throws a ball at some angle to the direction of
motion of the platform. Velocity of ball and platform are in same vertical plane. To a man standing
on ground, the trajectory of the ball may be:
(A) ellipse (B) hyperbola (C) straight line (D circle

7. A person can swim in still water with speed = 5 km/hr. He enters a 200 m wide river at a point A
on one of the banks. The river flow velocity is uniform and equal to 6 km/hr. A point B is located
directly across A, on the other bank. What is the closest possible distance from B where the
swimmer can land on the other bank?

(A) 120 m (B) 40 11 m (C) 30 10 m (D) None of these

8. The flow speed of water varies with the distance from its straight bank, as : v = (1 m/s). z,
where z is the distance in metres from the bank. A swimmer enters the river at a point A on the
bank and swims at 2 m/s, in a direction perpendicular to the river flow. What is his drift downstream
by the time his perpendicular distance from the bank is 20 m?
(A) 30.4 m (B) 29.8 m (C) 36.7 m (D 24.2 m

9. A man can swim in still water at a speed of 5 km/hr. He wants to cross a river 6 km wide, flowing
at the rate of 4 km/hr. If he heads in a direction making an angle of 127° with stream direction,
then he will reach a point on the other bank (approx)
(A) upstream at a distance of 1.5 km (B) downstream at a distance of 1.5 km
(C) directly on the other side of the bank (D never reach the other bank

10. Two boats A & B are moving along perpendicular paths in a still lake at night. Boat A moves with
a speed of 3 m/s and boat B moves with with a speed of 4 m/s in the directions such that they
collide after sometime. At t = 0 , the boats are 300 m apart. The ratio of distance travelled by
boat A to the distance travelled by boat B at the instant of collision is
(A) 1 (B) 1/2 (C) 3/4 (D4/3
