A man standing on a moving escalator, completes a certain distance in time t_(1) . If the escalator does not move then man covers this distance in time t_(2) by walking. (i) How much time will he take to cover the same distance if he move on the moving escalator in the same direction ? (ii) How much time will he take to cover the same distance if he move on the moving escalator in the opposite direction ?

Two speakers are driven by the same oscillator with frequency of 200 Hz. They are located 4 m part on a vertical pole. A man walks straight towards the lower speaker in a direction perpendicular to the pole, as shown in figure. (i) How many times will he hear a minimum in sound intensity, and (ii) how far is he from the pole and at these moments ? Take the speed of sound to be 330 m/s, and ignore any sound reflections coming off the ground. .

A beam of ultraviolet light of all wavelength passes through hydrogen gas at room temperature, in the x-direction. Assume that all photons emitted due to electron transitions inside the gas emerge in the y-direction. Let A and B denote the lights emerging from the gas in the x-and y-directions respectively. (i) Some of the incident wavelengths will be absent in A (ii) Only those wavelengths will be present in B which are absent in A (iii) B will contain some visible light (iv) B will contain some infrared light

On a long horizontally moving belt, a child runs to an fro with a speed 9 kmh^(-1) ( with respect to the belt) between his father and mother located 50m a part on the moving belt. The belt moves with a speed of 4 kmh^(-1) . For an observer on a stationery platform outside, what is the (i) speed of the child running in the direction of motion of the belt, (ii) speed of the child running opposited to the direction of motion of the belt , and (iii) time taken by child in (i) and (ii) ? which of the answers alter if motion is viewed by one of the parents?

A swimmer starts to swim from point a to cross a river. He wants to reach point B on the opposite side of the river. The line AB makes an angle 60^(@) with the river flow as hown. The velocity of the swimmer in still water is same as that of the water (i) In what direction should he try to direct his velocity ? Calculate angle between his velocity anf river velocity. (ii) Find the ratio of the time taken to cross the river in this situation to the minimum time in which he can cross this river.
