To determine whether the tension in the coupling between the fourth and fifth compartments of a goods train is the same as that in the coupling between the 21st and 22nd compartments, we can analyze the situation step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Setup**: - The goods train has a total of 25 compartments. - We need to compare the tension in two specific couplings: one between the 4th and 5th compartments and the other between the 21st and 22nd compartments. ...

A plumb bob is hung from the ceiling of a train compartment. If the train moves with an acceleration a along a straight horizontal track, the string supporting the bob makes an angle tan^1 (a/g) with the normal to the ceiling. Suppose the train moves on an inclined straight track with uniform velocity, if the angle of incline is tan^-1(a/g) , the string again makes the same angle with the normal to the ceiling. Can a person sitting inside the compartment tell by looking at the plumb line whether the train is accelerated on a horizontal straight track or it is going on an incline? If yes, how? If no, suggest a method to do so.

There are three thermometers one in contact with the skin of the man other in between the vest and the shirt and third in between the shirt and coat. The readings of the thermomenters are 30^@C , 25^@C and 22^@C , respectively. If the vest and the shirt are of the same thickness, the ratio of their thermal conductivities is

A rigid and insulated tank of 3m^(3) volume is divided into two compartments. One compartment of volume of 2m^(3) contains an ideal gas at 0.8314 Mpa and 400 K while the second compartment of volume of 1m^(3) contains the same gas at 8.314 Mpa and 500 K. If the partition between the two compartments is rptured, the final temperature of the gas is :

Two A.P have the same common difference. The first term of one A.P is 2 and that of the other is 7. The difference between the 10th terms is the same as the difference between their 21st terms, which is the same as the difference between any corresponding terms. Why?

The engine of a train passes an electric pole with a velocity 'u' and the last compartment of the train crosses the same pole with a velocity v. Then find the velocity with which the mid-point of the train passes the pole. Assume acceleration to be uniform.

A passenger and a good train are headed in the same direction on parallel tracks. The passenger train is 240 m long and has a constant velocity 72 km h^(-1) Beginning from the time the engine of the passenger train approaches the last wagon of the goods train it takes 25 s to be in level with the engine of the goods train. It took 30 s more to completely overtake the goods train. Determine the length and speed of the goods train.
