Consider a collection of a large number of particles each with speed v. The direction of velocity is randomly distributed in the collection. Show that the magnitude of the relative velocity between a pair of particles averaged over all the pairs in the collection is greater than v.

A large number of particles are moving each with speed v having directions of motion randomly distributed. What is the average relative velocity between any two particles averaged over all the pairs?

The magnitude of average velocity is equal to the average speed when a particle moves:-

In a collinear collision, a particle with an initial speed v0 strikes a stationary particle of the same mass. If the final total kinetic energy is 50% greater than the original kinetic energy, the magnitude of the relative velocity between the two particles, after collision, is :

If magnitude of average speed and average velocity over a time interval are same, then

Two particles each of the same mass move due north and due east respectively with the same velocity .V.. The magnitude and direction of the velocity of centre of mass is

Assertion : Particle A is moving Eastwards and particle B Northwards with same speed. Then, velocity of A with respect to B is in South-East direction. Reason : Relative velocity between them is zero as their speeds are same.

A particle is projected with a speed v and an angle theta to the horizontal. After a time t, the magnitude of the instantaneous velocity is equal to the magnitude of the average velocity from 0 to t. Find t.
