The coin is 6ft above the floor of elevator at the time it is dropped . The person observes that the coin strikes the floor in 1 second . calculate from these data the acceleration of the elevator ?
Ans ) S = Ut + ½ (g+a)t2 ,- 6 = 1/2 -(32.2 + a ) 1 2 , 12 = 32.2 +a , a = 20.2 ft/sec2
32)A ball is thrown horizontally from a point 100 m above the ground with a speed of 20 m/s. Find (a) the time it takes to reach the ground, (b) the horizontal distance it travels before reaching the ground. (c) the velocity (direction and magnitude) with which it strikes the ground .
33)A ball is thrown at a speed of 40 m/s at an angle of 60 ° with the horizontal. Find a. the maximum height reached and b. the range of the ball. Take . g = 10 m/s2
34) In a soccer practice session the football is kept at the centre of the field 40 yards from the 10 ft high goalposts. A goal is attempted by kicking the football at a speed of 64 ft/s at an angle of 45° to the horizontal. Will the ball reach the goal post ?
35) A popular game in Indian villages is goli which is played with small glass balls called golis. The goli of one player is situatted at a distance of 2.0 m from the goli of the second player. This second player has to project his goli by keeping the thumb of the left hand at the place of his goli, holding the goli between his two middlefilngers and making the throw. If he projected is 19.6 cm from the ground and the goli is to be projected horizontally, with what speed shold it be projected so that it directly hits the stationary goli without falling on the ground earlier?
36) Figure shows a 11.7 ft wide ditch with the approach roads at and angle of with the horizontal. With what minimum speed should a mororbike be moving on the road so that it safely croses the ditch?
Assume that the length of thebike is 5 ft, and it leaves the road when the front part runs out of the approch road.
37) A person standing on the top of a cliff 171 ft high has to throw a packet to his friend standing on the ground 228 ft horizontally away. If he throws the packet directly aiming at the friend with a speed of 15.0 ft/s, how short will the packet fall?
38) A ball is projected from a point on the floor wilth a speed of 15 m/s at an angle of with the horizontal. Will ilt hit a vertical wall 5 m away from the point of projection and perpendiculaer to the plane of projection without and perpendicular to the plane of projection without hitting the floor? will the answer differ if the wall is 22 m away?
