A crow is sitting on a branch of tree whose co-ordinates are (1,2,3) . A hunter is standing on the ground . Represent the position of the crow with respect to the hunter .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Formula :
`Let vec (r) = xhat(i) + yhat(j) + zhat(k)`
The position of vector of crow
`vec(r) = (1) hat(i) +(2) hat(j) +(3) hat(k)`
The position of vector of a hunter
`s_(1) = ohat(i) + ohat(j) + o hat(k)`
The position of vector of crow with respect to hunter is
`vec(r) = hat(i) + 2 hat(j) + 3 hat(k)`

A bird is sitting on the top of a vertical pole 20 m high and its elevation from a point O on the ground is 45o . It flies off horizontally straight away from the point O. After one second, the elevation of the bird from O is reduced to 30o . Then the speed (in m/s) of the bird is (1) 40(sqrt(2)-1) (2) 40(sqrt(3)-2) (3) 20""sqrt(2) (4) 20(sqrt(3)-1)

Two stones are thrown up simultaneously from the edge of a cliff 200 m high with initial speeds of 15 ms^(-1) and 30 ms^(-1) . Verify that the graph shown in Fig. correctly represents the time variation of the relative position of the second stone with respect to the first. Neglect air resistance and assume that the stones do not rebound after hitting the ground. Take g = 10 ms^(-2) . Give the equations for the linear and curved parts of the plot.

A bird is sitting on the top of a 80 m high tree. From a point on the ground, the angle of elevation of the bird is 45^(@) . The bird flies away horizontally in such away that it remained at a constant height from the ground. After 2 seconds, the angle of elevation of the bird from the same point is 30^(@) . Determine the speed at which the bird flies. (sqrt3= 1.732)

A man whose eye-level is 2 m above the ground wishes to find the height of a tree. He places a mirror horizontally on the ground 20 m from the tree and finds that if he stands at a point C which is 4 m from the mirror B, he can see the reflection of the top of the tree. How height is the tree?
