A car is climbing the hill of slope `theta_(1) = 53^(@)` at a constant speed v. If the slope decreases abruptly to `theta_(2)=37^(@)` at point A, determine the acceleration a of the car just after passing point A if the driver does not change the throttle setting or shift into a different gear.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
6
Distance travelled = 10 m , displacement = 6 m , average velocity = `1.2 m//s`

A car is moving along the circle x^(2)+y^(2)=a^(2) in the anti-clockwise direction with a constant speed. The x-y plane is a rough horizontal stationary surface. When the car is at the point ( a cos theta, a sin theta ), the unit vector in the direction of the friction force acting on the car is

There are two hills A and B and a car is travelling towards hill A along the line joining the two hills. Car is travelling at a constant speed u. There is a wind blowing at speed u in the direction of motion of the car (i.e., from hill B to A).

Find the ratio (x_(1))/(x_(2)) taking speed of sound in still air to ve V.
