A body is thrown horizontally with a velocity \(\sqrt{2 g h}\) from the top of a tower of height \(h\). It strikes the level ground through the foot of the tower at a distance \(x\) from the tower. The value of \(x\) is:
1. | \( h \) | 2. | \(\frac{h}{2} \) |
3. | \(2 h \) | 4. | \( \frac{2 h}{3}\) |
Two men \(P\) and \(Q\) are standing at corners \(A\) and \(B\) of a square \(ABCD\) of side \(8~\text m.\) They start moving along the track with a constant speed \(2~\text{m/s}\) and \(10~\text {m/s}\) respectively. The time when they will meet for the first time is equal to:
1. \(2~\text{sec}\)
2. \(3~\text{sec}\)
3. \(1~\text{sec}\)
4. \(6~\text{sec}\)
A particle starts from the origin at t=0 and moves in the x-y plane with constant acceleration 'a' in the y direction. Its equation of motion is . The x component of its velocity (at t=0) is:
(1) variable
(2)
(3)
(4)
A body is projected with a velocity \(u\) with an angle of projection \(\theta.\) Change in velocity after the time \((t)\) from the time of projection will be:
1. | \(gt\) | 2. | \(\frac{1}{2}gt^2\) |
3. | \(u\sin\theta\) | 4. | \(u\cos\theta\) |

(1) Speed only
(2) Velocity only
(3) Acceleration only
(4) None of these
