Q.1. A string can withstand a tension of 25N.

What is the greatest speed at which a body

of mass 1kg can be moved in a horizontal circle using 1m length of the string?

Q.2. A stone tied to the end of a string 75cm long is moved in a horizontal circle with
constant speed. If the above stone makes 20 revolutions in 25s, find the speed of the
stone. Also find the magnitude and direction of acceleration.
Q.3. What should be the angle between two vectors A and B for their resultant R to be
(i) maximum (ii) minimum?
Q.4. What is the effect on the magnitude of resultant of two vectors when the angle
between them is increased from to ?
Q.5. Can there be motion in two dimensions with an acceleration in one dimension?
Q.6. Can the direction of velocity of a body change when the acceleration is constant?
Q.7. Why does a projectile fired along the horizontal not follow a straight line path?
Q.8. What is the angle between the direction of velocity and acceleration at the
highest point of a projectile path?
Q.9. A bullet is dropped from a certain height and at the same time, another bullet is fired
horizontally from the same height. Which one will hit the ground earlier? Why?
Q.10. What will be the effect on horizontal range of a projectile when its initial velocity is doubled,
keeping the angle of projection same?
Q.11. A projectile is fired at an angle of to the horizontal with a speed v. If another projectile is
projected with the same speed, then at what angle with the horizontal it must be projected so as to
have the same range?
Q.12. A body is projected with a speed u at an angle to the horizontal to have the maximum range.
What is the velocity at the highest point?
Q.13. A projectile of mass m is fired with velocity v at an angle with the horizontal. What is the
change in momentum as it rises to the highest point of the trajectory?
Q.14. What is the angle between velocity vector and acceleration vector in uniform circular motion?
Q.15. When a knife is sharpened with the help of a rotating grind stone, the spark always travels
tangentially to it. Why?
Q.16. If both the speed and radius of the circular path are doubled, how will the centripetal
acceleration change?
Q.17. Prove that the horizontal range is the same when the angle of projection is (i)
greater than by certain value and (ii) less than by the same value.
Q.18. At which point on the projectile trajectory is the (i) P.E maximum (ii) K.E
minimum and (iii) total energy maximum?
Q.19. (a) Show that for a projectile the angle between the velocity and X axis as a
function of time is where the symbols have their usual meanings.
(b)Show that projection angle for a projectile launched from the origin is given by
where symbols have their usual meanings.
