A large rectangular box ABCD falls vertically with an acceleration a. a toy gun fixed at A and aimed towards C fired a particle P.

A

(a)P will hit C if a = g

B

(b)P will hit the roof BC if `a gt g`

C

(c)P will hit the wall CD or the floor AD if `a lt g`

D

(d)May be either (A), (B) or (C), depending on the speed of projection of P

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C
If the relative acceleration of bullet w.r.t. box is zero then its motion is straight line w.r.t. box vertical displacement will be different if `a ne g`.

Two particles of mass m each are tied at the ends of a light string of length 2a. The whole system is kept on a frictionless horizontal surface with the string held tight so that each mass is at a distance a from the centre P (as shown in the figure). Now, the mid-point of the string is pulled vertically upwards with a small but constant force F. As a result, the particles move towards each other on the surface. The magnitude of acceleration, when the separation between them becomes 2x, is
