Take a small stone. Hold it in your hand. We know that the force gravity due to the earth acts on each and every object. When we were holding the stone in our hand, the stone was experiencing this force, but it was balanced by a force that we were applying on it in the opposite direction. As a result, the stone remained at rest. Once we release the stone from our hands the only force that acts on it is the gravitational force of the earth and the stone falls down under its influence. Whenever an object moves under the influence of the force of gravity alone, it is said to be falling freely. Thus the released stone is in a free fall. In free fall, the initial velocity of the object is zero and goes on increasing due to acceleration due to gravity of the earth. During free fall, the frictional force due to air opposes the motion of the object and a buoyant force also acts on the object. Thus, true free fall is possible only in vacuum. For a freely falling object, the velocity on reaching the earth and the time taken for it can be calculated by using Newton's equations of motion. For free fall the initial velocity u=0 and the acceleration a=g . Thus, we can write the equations as v="gt",s=1/2"gt"^(2),v^(2)=2gs For calculating the motion of an object thrown upwards, acceleration is negative, i.e. in a direction opposite to the velocity and is taken to be -g. The magnitude of g is the same but the velocity of the object decreases due to -ve acceleration. The moon and the artificial satellites are moving only under the influence of the gravitational field of the earth. Thus they are in free fall. Which force acts on the stone in free fall after you release it?

A optical fiber is made up of a core material with refractive index 1.68 and a cladding material of refractive index 1.44. What is the acceptance angle of the fiber kept in air medium? What is the answer if there is no cladding?

Identify the correct statements from the below (I) Total lung capacity is vital capacity and residual volume. (II) Solubility of gases and thickness of the membrane are the factors affecting gas exchange. (III) Vital capacity means the maximum volume of air a person can breath in or breath out after a forced inspiration. (IV) Solubility of O_(2) is 20-25 times higher than that of CO_(2) .

State the volume of air remaining in the lungs after a normal breathing.

The respiratory system is made up of trachea, the lungs and the

After forceful inspiration, the amount of air that can be breathed out by maximum forced expiration is equal to

Lift an object up from the ground. Work done by the force exerted by you on the object moves it in upward direction. Thus the force applied is in the direction of displacement. However there exists a force of gravitation on the object at the same time • Which one of these forces is doing positive work? • Which one is doing negative work? • Give reasons

You may have seen the trick where a tablecloth is jerked from a table, leaving the dishes that were on the cloth nearly in their original positions. What do you need to perform this successfully? Which cloth should we use? Is it cloth made of thick cotton or thin silk? Should the dishes possess large mass or small mass? Is it better to pull the cloth with a large force or pull it with a gentle and steady force?
