A batsman hits a cricket ball which then rolls on a level ground. After covering a short distance, the ball comes to rest. The ball slows to a stop because…

A

the batsman did not hit the ball hard enough.

B

velocity is proportional to the force exerted on the ball

C

there is a force on the ball opposing the motion.

D

there is no unbalanced force on the ball so the ball would want to come to rest.

A ball hits the floor and rebounds after an inelastic collision. In this case

In a bucket and ball race, a bucket is placed at the starting point, which is 5 m from the first ball, and the other balls are placed 3 m apart in a straight line. There are ten balls in the line. A competitor starts from the bucket, picks up the nearest ball, runs back with it, drops it in the bucket, runs back to pick up the next ball, runs to the bucket to drop it in, and she continues in the same way until all the balls are in the bucket. What is the total distance the competitor has to run? (Hint: To pick up the first ball and the second ball, the total distance (in metres) run by a competitor is 2 x 5 + 2 x (5+3)]

(a) When a molecule (or an elastic ball) hits a ( massive) wall, it rebounds with the same speed. When a ball hits a massive bat held firmly, the same thing happens. However, when the bat is moving towards the ball, the ball rebounds with a different speed. Does the ball move faster or slower? (b) When gas in a cylinder is compressed by pushing in a piston, its temperature rises. Guess at an explanation of this in terms of kinetic theory using (a) above. (c) What happens when a compressed gas pushes a piston out and expands. What would you observe ? (d) Sachin Tendulkar used a heavy cricket bat while playing. Did it help him in anyway ?

A ball is bouncing down a set of stairs. The coefficient of restitution is e. The height of each step is d and the ball bounces one step at each bounce. After each bounce the ball rebounds to a height h above the next lower step. Neglect width of each step in comparison to h and assume the impacts to be effectively head on. Which of the following relative is correct ?

A batsman hits back a ball straight in the direction of the bowler without changing its initial speed of 12 m s^(-1) . If the mass of the ball is 0.15 kg, determine the impulse imparted to the ball. (Assume linear motion of the ball)

6 balls marked as 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 are kept in a box. Two players A and B start to take out 1 ball at a time from the box one after another without replacing the ball till the game is over. The number marked on the ball is added each time to the previous sum to get the sum of numbers marked on the balls taken out. If this sum is even, then 1 point is given to the players. the first player to get 2 points is declared winner. at the start of the game, the sum is 0. if A starts to take out the ball, find the number of ways in which the game can be won.

A golfer standing on level ground hits a ball with a velocity of u=52m//s at an angle alpha above the horizontal. If tantheta=5//12 , then the time interval for which the ball is at least 15 m above the ground (i.e. between A and B will be :(take g=10m//s^(2) )

A massive ball moving with speed v collieds with a tiny ball which is intially at rest having a mass very much smaller than the mass of the first ball. The collision is elastic, then immediately after the impact, the second ball will move with a speed approximately equal to :-

A man is standing on top of a building 100 m high. He throws two balls vertically, one at t = 0 and after a time interval (less than 2 seconds). The later ball is thrown at a velocity of half the first. The vertical gap between first and second ball is + 15 m at t = 2 s. The gap is found to remain constant. Calculate the velocity with which the balls were thrown and the exact time interval between their throw.
