A man starts chasing his dog 10 second after the latter runs along a straight track at a unifrom acceleration of `0.5 m//s^(2)`. The track is 2 km long after which it bends aways into the field. What will be the minimum constant speed of the man so that he may catch the dog before the bend in the track ?

A

1.50 km/hr

B

40 m/s

C

90 km/hr

D

20 m/s

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`2.0 = (1)/(2) xx a xx t^(2)` Where `a = (1)/(2) m//s^(2)`
For man `2.0 = v xx t`

A man is 10m behind the bus stop when the bus left the stop, with an acceleration of 2m//s^(2) . What should be the minimum uniform speed of man so that he may catch the bus? If he runs with required minimum speed then how much time it will take to catch the bus?

A person is standing at a distance 's' m from a bus. The bus begins to move with cosntant acceleration 'a' m//s^(2) away from the person. To catch the bus, the person runs at a constant speed 'v' m/s towards the bus. Minimum speed of the person so that he can catch the bus is:

a. A rail road flat car of mass M can roll without friction along a straight horizontal track . Initially, a man of mass m is standing on the car which is moving to the right with speed v_(0) . What is the change in velocity of the car if the man runs to the left so that his speed relative to the car is v_(rel) just before he jumps off at the left end? b. If there are n men each of mass m on the car, should they all run and jump off together or should they run and jump one by one in order to give a greater velocity to the car?
