An object is at the top of a smooth sphere which is kept fixed. As object slides down after being given a negligible side push, magnitude of acceleration of object during its motion till it reaches ground.

An object is at the top of a smooth sphere which is kept fixed. As object slides down after being given a negligible side push, magnitude of acceleration of object during its motion till it reaches ground.


A
Increases and then decreaes
B
Decreases then becomes constant
C
Increases and then becomes constant
D
Continously increases.
Text Solution
Verified by Experts
The correct Answer is:
C
Up to when block have contact with sphere its net `a_("net")=sqrt(a_(t)^(2)+a_(c)^(2))` increases `v uparrow` after that acceleration of block will be only acceleration due to gravity.

An object of mass m is released from rest at a height h above the surface of a table. The object slides along the inside of the loop. The loop track consisting of a ramp and a circular loop of radius R shown in the figure. Assume that the track is frictionless. When the object is at the top of the circular track it pushes against the track with a force equal to three times its weight. What height was the object dropped from?

A given object takes n times as much time to slide down a 45^(@) rough incline as it takes to slide down a perfectly smooth 45^(@) incline. The coefficeint of kinetic friction between the object and the incline is given by:
An object A is kept fixed at the point x= 3 m and y = 1.25 m on a plank p raised above the ground . At time t = 0 the plank starts moving along the +x direction with an acceleration 1.5 m//s^(2) . At the same instant a stone is projected from the origin with a velocity vec(u) as shown . A stationary person on the ground observes the stone hitting the object during its downward motion at an angle 45(@) to the horizontal . All the motions are in the X -Y plane . Find vec(u) and the time after which the stone hits the object . Take g = 10 m//s
Assertion :- To observe the motion of planets, the sun may be assumed to be an inertial frame. Reason :- For practical purpose a frame of reference may be considered as inertial if it’s acceleration is negligible w.r.t. the acceleration of the object to be observed.
