The rear side of a truck is open and a box of 40 kg mass is placed 5 m away from the open end as shown. The coefficient of friction between the box and the surface below its is 0.15. On a straight road, the truck starts from rest and accelerates with 2 ms^-2 . At what distance from the starting point does the box fall off the truck ?/ (Ignore the size of the box).

A man wants to reach from A to the opposite corner of square C ( shown in the figure) . The sides of the square are 100m.A central square of 50 mxx50m is filled with sand. Outside this square, he can walk at a speed 1 m/s. In the central square, he can walk only at a speed of v m/s (v>1). What is smallest value of v for which he can reach faster via a straight path through the sand than any path in the square outside the sand.

A stone thrown horizontally falls on the ground after 0.5 second at a distance of 5m from where it was thrown. What angle was formed by the trajectory of the stone with the ground? (g=10ms^(-2))

A rain drop of radius 2 mm falls from a height of 500 nr above the ground. It falls with decreasing acceleration (due to viscous resistance of the air) until at half its original height, it attains its maximum (terminal) speed, and moves with uniform speed thereafter. What is the work done by the gravitational force on the drop in the first and second half of its journey ? What is the work done by the resistive force in the entire journey if its speed on reaching the ground is 10 m s^-1 ?
