A cart is moving horizontally along a straight line with constant speed 30 m/s. A projectile is to be fired from the moving cart in such a way that it will return to the cart after the cart has moved 120m. At what speed (relative to the cart, in m/s) must the projectile be fired ? (Take `g=10m//s^2`)

A

10 m/s

B

`10sqrt(8)` m/s

C

`40/3` m/s

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Time taken by cart
`t_(1) = 80/30 = 8/3` sec
When particle reach maximum height
`t_(2) = t_(1)/2 = 4/3` sec
`v = u - "gt" rArr 0 = u - 10 xx 4/3 rArr u = 404/3` m/s

A cart is moving with a velocity 20m/s. Sand is being dropped into the cart at the rate of 50 kg/min. The force required to move the cart with constant velocity will be :-

Momentum is the ability of imparting or tending to motion to other bodies. The total momentum of a system remains conserved if no external force is acting it. This is calculated by the formula, vecp=mvecv . Consider a situation where a cart carrying five boys is moving without friction due to inertia along a straight horizontal road, with a speed of 10m//s . After travelling certain distance, a boy jumps from the cart with a speed of 2m//s with respect to the cart in opposite direction to it. Then, second boy jumps with the same speed w.r.t. the cart, but in a perpendicular direction to the cart. The mass of the cart is 100 kg and mass of each boy is 20 kg. The speed of the cart after second boy jumps will
