(3) Zero
(4) 2 Mg
A 5000 kg rocket is set for vertical firing. The exhaust speed is 800 ms–1. To give an initial upward acceleration of 20 ms–2, the amount of gas ejected per second to supply the needed thrust will be (g = 10 ms–2)
(1) 127.5 kg s–1
(2) 187.5 kg s–1
(3) 185.5 kg s–1
(4) 137.5 kg s–1
If a person with a spring balance and a body hanging from it goes up and up in an aeroplane, then the reading of the weight of the body as indicated by the spring balance will
(1) Go on increasing
(2) Go on decreasing
(3) First increase and then decrease
(4) Remain the same
A body is imparted motion from rest to move in a straight line. If it is then obstructed by an opposite force, then:
(1) The body may necessarily change direction
(2) The body is sure to slow down
(3) The body will necessarily continue to move in the same direction at the same speed
(4) None of these
Two balls of masses m1 and m2 are separated from each other by a powder charge placed between them. The whole system is at rest on the ground. Suddenly the powder charge explodes and masses are pushed apart. The mass m1 travels a distance s1 and stops. If the coefficients of friction between the balls and ground are same, the mass m2 stops after travelling the distance
