Two boys are standing at the ends A and ...

Two boys are standing at the ends A and B of a ground where AB = a. The boy at B starts running in a direction perpendicular to AB with velocity `upsuilon_(1)`. The boy at A starts running simultaneously with velocity `upsilon` and catches the other boy in a time t,where t is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let two boys meet at point C after time 't' from the starting.
Then AC=vt, BC`=v_(1)t` but `(AC)^(2)=(AB)^(2)+(BC)^(2)rArrv^(2)t^(2)=a^(2)+v_(1)^(2)t^(2)`
`rArrt^(2)(v^(2)-v_(1)^(2))=a^(2)rArrt=sqrt((a^(2))/(v^(2)-v_(1)^(2)))`

At time t = 0, two bodies A and B at the same point. A moves with constant velocity upsilon and B starts from rest and moves with constant acceleration. Relative velocity of B w.r.t. A when the bodies meet each other is

We know that when a boat travels in water, its net velocity w.r.t. ground is the vector sum of two velocities. First is the velocity of boat itself in river and other is the velocity of water w.r.t. ground. Mathematically: vecv_(boat) = vecv_(boat,water) + vecv_(water) . Now given that velocity of water w.r.t. ground in a river is u. Width of the river is d. A boat starting from rest aims perpendicular to the river with an acceleration of a = 5t, where t is time. The boat starts from point (1,0) of the coordinate system as shown in figure. Assume SI units. Find time taken by him to across the river.
