A pebble of mass 0.05 kg is thrown vertically upwards. Give the direction and magnitude of the net force on the pebble, (a) during its upward motion, (b) during its downward motion, (c) at the highest point where it is momentarily at rest. Do your answers change if the pebble was thrown at an angle of 45^@ with the horizontal direction? Ignore air resistance.

    Car A of mass 1000 kg moves on a horizontal straight road with speed 36kmh^(-1) . If the force resisting the motion is 100 N, then find the power of the engine. Now, after covering 200 m distance, car A collides with a stationary car B of same mass and becomes stationary. As a result car B start moving on the horizontal road, then what would be the speed of car B just after the collision? (The engine of car B is off.)

    Assertion: When a person walks on a rough surface, the frictional force exerted by the surface on the person is opposite to the direction of tendenc of motion his leg. Reason: If a body moves with constant velocity, then it means that body is moving along straight line & there is no acceleration.
