A stone falls from a balloon that is descending at a uniform rate of 12 m/s. The displacement of the stone from the point of release after 10 sec is
(1) 490 m
(2) 510 m
(3) 610 m
(4) 725 m
A ball is dropped on the floor from a height of 10 m. It rebounds to a height of 2.5 m. If the ball is in contact with the floor for 0.01 sec, the average acceleration during contact is
1. 2100 m/sec2 downwards
2. 2100 m/sec2 upwards
3. 1400 m/sec2
4. 700 m/sec2
A body A is projected upwards with a velocity of 98 m/s. The second body B is projected upwards with the same initial velocity but after 4 sec. Both the bodies will meet after
(1) 6 sec
(2) 8 sec
(3) 10 sec
(4) 12 sec
Two bodies of different masses ma and mb are dropped from two different heights a and b. The ratio of the time taken by the two to cover these distances are
(1) a : b
(2) b : a
(3)
(4)
A body falls freely from rest. It covers as much distance in the last second of its motion as covered in the first three seconds. The body has fallen for a time of
(1) 3 s
(2) 5 s
(3) 7 s
(4) 9 s
A stone is dropped into water from a bridge 44.1 m above the water. Another stone is thrown vertically downward 1 sec later. Both strike the water simultaneously. What was the initial speed of the second stone?
(1) 12.25 m/s
(2) 14.75 m/s
(3) 16.23 m/s
(4) 17.15 m/s
A body is thrown vertically upwards. If the air resistance is to be taken into account, then the time during which the body rises is:
1. | Equal to the time of fall. |
2. | Less than the time of fall. |
3. | Greater than the time of fall. |
4. | Twice the time of fall. |
A body is released from a great height and falls freely towards the earth. Another body is released from the same height exactly one second later. The separation between the two bodies, two seconds after the release of the second body is
(1) 4.9 m
(2) 9.8 m
(3) 19.6 m
(4) 24.5 m
An object is projected upwards with a velocity of 100 m/s. It will strike the ground after (approximately)
(1) 10 sec
(2) 20 sec
(3) 15 sec
(4) 5 sec
A stone dropped from the top of the tower touches the ground in 4 sec. The height of the tower is about
(1) 80 m
(2) 40 m
(3) 20 m
(4) 160 m
