A boat moves with a speed of 5 km/h relative to water in a river flowing with a speed of 3 km/h and having a width of 1 km. The minimum time taken around a round trip(returning to the initial point) is:
(1) 5 min
(2) 60 min
(3) 20 min
(4) 30 min
A river is flowing from W to E with a speed of 5 m/min. A man can swim in still water with a velocity 10 m/min. In which direction should the man swim so as to take the shortest possible path to go to the south.
(1) 30° with downstream
(2) 60° with downstream
(3) 120° with downstream
(4) South
A train is moving towards east and a car is along north, both with same speed. The observed direction of car to the passenger in the train is
(1) East-north direction
(2) West-north direction
(3) South-east direction
(4) None of these
A ball P is dropped vertically and another ball Q is thrown horizontally from the same height and at the same time. If air resistance is neglected, then
(1) Ball P reaches the ground first
(2) Ball Q reaches the ground first
(3) Both reach the ground at the same time
(4) The respective masses of the two balls will decide the time
A frictionless wire AB is fixed on a sphere of radius R. A very small spherical ball slips on this wire. The time taken by this ball to slip from A to B is:
1.
2.
3.
4.
A body is slipping from an inclined plane of height h and length l. If the angle of inclination is θ, the time taken by the body to come from the top to the bottom of this inclined plane is:
1.
2.
3.
4.
An aeroplane is moving with a velocity \(u\). It drops a packet from a height \(h\). The time \(t\) taken by the packet in reaching the ground will be:
1. \(
\sqrt{\left(\frac{2 g}{h}\right)}
\)
2. \( \sqrt{\left(\frac{2 u}{g}\right)}
\)
3. \( \sqrt{\left(\frac{h}{2 g}\right)}
\)
4. \( \sqrt{\left(\frac{2 h}{g}\right)}\)
An aeroplane is moving with horizontal velocity u at height h. The velocity of a packet dropped from it on the earth's surface will be (g is acceleration due to gravity)

A bullet is fired with a speed of in order to hit a target 100 m away. If , the gun should be aimed:
(1) Directly towards the target
(2) 5 cm above the target
(3) 10 cm above the target
(4) 15 cm above the target
A body sliding on a smooth inclined plane requires 4 seconds to reach the bottom starting from the rest at the top. How much time does it take to cover one-fourth distance starting from the rest at the top?
1. | 1 s | 2. | 2 s |
3. | 4 s | 4. | 16 s |
