- A stone is thrown vertically upwards with a vertical velocity of 49 m/sec. It returns to the ground in
- A vehicle weighing w kg is to run on a circular curve of radius r. If the height of its centre of gravity above the road level is h and the distance between the centres of wheels is 2a, the maximum velocity, in order to avoid over turning, will be
- A string of length 90 cm is fastened to two points ‘A’ and ‘B’ at the same level 60 cm apart. A ring weighing 120 g is slided on the string. A horizontal force ‘P’ is applied to the ring such that it is in equilibrium vertically below ‘B’. The value of ‘P’ is:
- A body of weight ‘w’ placed on an inclined plane is acted upon by a force ‘P’ parallel to the plane which causes the body just to move up the plane. If the angle of inclination of the plane is ‘θ’ and angle of friction is ‘φ’, the minimum value of ‘P’, is
- If the linear velocity of a point on the rim of a wheel of 10 m diameter, is 50 m/sec, its angular velocity will be
- The centre of gravity of a trapezoidal dam section whose top width is a, bottom width is band the vertical side is a, from its vertical face is
- Pick up the correct statement from the following. A rubber ball when strikes a wall rebounds but a lead ball of same mass and velocity when strikes the same wall, falls down
- If two forces of 3 kg and 4 kg act at right angles to each other, their resultant force will be equal to
- The masses of two balls are in the ratio of 2 : 1 and their respective velocities are in the ratio of 1 : 2 but in opposite direction before impact. If the coefficient of restitution is ½, the velocities of separation of the balls will be equal to
