Two bodies of masses m_1 and m_2(

Assertion: Two bodies of masses M and m(M gt m) are allowed to fall from the same height if the air resistance for each be the same then both the bodies will reach the earth simultaneously. Reason: For same air resistance, acceleration of both the bodies will be same.

Two particles of masses m_(1) and m_(2) (m_(1) gt m_(2)) are separated by a distance d. The shift in the centre of mass when the two particles are interchanged.

Two small balls of the same size and of mass m_(1) and m_(2)(m_(1) gt m_(2)) are tied by a thin light thread and dropped from a large height. Determine the tension T of the thread during the flight after the motion of the balls has become steady. (Air resistance force is same on two balls) [Take m_(1)=2kg , m_(2)=1kg , g=10m//s^(2) ]

Two masses m_(1) and m_(2) ( m_(2) gt m_(1)) are hanging vertically over frictionless pulley. The acceleration of the two masses is :

Two small balls of the same size and of mass m_(1) and m_(2) (m_(1) gt m_(2)) are tied by a thin weightless thread and dropped from a ballon. Determine the tension T of the thread during the flight after the motion of the balls has become steady-state.

Assertion : Two bodies of unequal masses m_1 and m_2 are dropped from the same height. If the resistance offered by air to the motion of both bodies is the same, the bodies will reach the earth at the same time. Reason : For equal air resistance, acceleration of fall of masses m_1 and m_2 will be different.

Two bodies of masses M and m are allowed to fall from the same height. It the resistance for each be the same, then, will both the bodies reach the earth simultaneously ?

Two equal and opposite charges of masses m_(1) and m_(2) are accelerated in a uniform electric field through the same distance. What is the ratio of their accelerations, if their ratio of masses is m_(1)/m_(2)=0.5 ?
