A heavy ball is suspended from the ceiling of a motor car through a light string. A transverse pulse travels at a speed of 60 cm s^-1 on the string when the car is at rest and 62 cm s^-1 when the car accelerates on a horizontal road. Find the acceleration of the car. Take g = 10 ms^-2

Two bodies make an elastic head on colision on a smooth horizontal table kept in a car.Do you expect a change in the result if the car is accelerated on a horizontal road because of the noninertial character of the frame? Does the equation velocityof separation = velocity of approach remain valid in n accelerating car? Does the equation final momentum =initial momentum remain valid in the accelerating car?

A heavy ball is suspended from the ceilling of a motor can through a light strig. A transverse pulse travels at a speed of 50 cm//s on the strin when the car is at rest and 52 cm//s when the car accelerates on a horizontal road. Then acceleration of the car is : (Take g = 10 m//s^(2) .)
