Two inclined frictionless tracks, one gradual and the other steep meet at A from where two stones are allowed to slide down from rest, one on each track (Fig. 6.16). Will the stones reach the bottom at the same time? Will they reach there with the same speed? Explain. Given 61 = 30^@ , theta_2 = 60^@ , and h= 10 m, what are the speeds and times taken by the two stones ?

A stone is dropped from the top of a tall cliff and n seconds later another stone is thrown vertically downwards with a velocity u m/s. How far below the top of the cliff the second stone will overtake the first?

A man is standing on top of a building 100 m high. He throws two balls vertically, one at t = 0 and other after a time interval (less than 2 s). 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. The velocities with which the balls were thrown.

Two stones are thrown up simultaneously from the edge of a cliff 200 m high with initial speeds of 15 m s^-1 and 30 m s^-1 . Verify that the graph shown in Fig. 3.27 correctly represents the time variation of the relative position of the second stone with respect to the first. Neglect air resistance and assume that the stones do not rebound after hitting the ground. Take g = 10 m s^-2 . Give the equations for the linear and curved parts of the plot.

A stone thrown horizontally falls on the ground after 0.5 second at a distance of 5m from where it was thrown. From what height was it thrown?

A stone is allowed to fall from the top of the tower 100 m high and at the same time another stone is projected vertically upwards from the ground with a velocity of 25ms^ -1 . Calculate when and where the two stones will meet ?
