On the earth, a stone is thrown from a height in a direction parallel to the earth’s surface while another stone is simultaneously dropped from the same height. Which stone would reach the ground first and why?
When a coin is tossed, the possible outcomes are head (H) and tail (T).
When a die is thrown, the possible outcomes are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.
Thus, the...
According to the equation of motion under gravity v2 − u2 = 2gs
Where,
u = Initial velocity of the stone = 40 m/s
v = Final velocity of the stone = 0...
Initial velocity of the stone, u = 20 m/s
Final velocity of the stone, v = 0 m/s
Distance covered by the stone, s = 50 m
According to the third equation of...
(a) 1 N; vertically downward
Mass of the stone, m = 0.1 kg
Acceleration of the stone, a = g = 10 m/s2
As per Newton’s second law of motion, the net force...
(d) g downward
Explanation:
Gravity is the only force acting on the stone when it is released. And, we know that gravity is always in the downward direction.
The correct answer is
(c) vA = vB
Explanation:
The ball 'A' thrown vertically upward will return back to the initial point with the same thrown speed but its direction will be downwards....
(d) the speed does not depend on the initial direction.
Explanation:-
When the stone is thrown its total mechanical energy = K.E.+P.E.
= ½mv² + mgh ---------(i)
This energy is conserved and when near the ground...
(a) must depend on the speed of projection
(b) must be larger than the speed of projection
Explanation:
Since Kinetic Energy given to the stone is dependent on the speed of projection, and...
(d) the speed does not depend on the initial direction.
Explanation:-
When the stone is thrown its total mechanical energy = K.E.+P.E.
= ½mv² + mgh ---------(i)
This energy is conserved and when near...
