The frictional force is 1N.
(c) What will be the applied force?
(d) What is the change in acceleration on the frictional floor and on the frictionless floor?
01. c.
Let, the two cars collide after t time. At time t the acceleration of the car moving at 15 ms −1 is 15 t and at
20 ms −1 the acceleration of the car is 20 t. As they collide, so, the total distance covered by the two cars is
200 m.
200
∴ 15 t + 20 t = 200 ⇒ t = = 5.714 s
35
∴ The two cars collides after 5.714 s time.
14
03. c. Given, Initial velocities before collision, u1 = 50 kmh−1
And u2 = −65 kmh−1 [considering the velocity towards right as positive]
Masses are respectively, m1 = 950 kg and m2 = 700 kg
let, combined velocity = v
from law of conservation of momentum, m1 u1 + m2 u2 = m1 v + m2 v
950×50−700×65
⇒ v(m1 + m2 ) = m1 u1 + m2 u2 ⇒ v = 950+700
∴ v = 1.212 kmh−1 (Towards right)
−1
d. From ‘c’ we get, Combined velocity, v = 1.212 kmh
Momentum before collision,
p1 = m1 u1 + m2 u2 = 950 × 50 − 700 × 65 = 2000 kgms −1 (Towards right)
Momentum after collision,
p2 = (m1 + m2 )v = (950 + 700) × 1.212 = 2000 kgms−1 (Towards right)
∴ p1 = p2 ∴ So, momentum was conserved.

[∴ K1 ≠ K 2 ] ∴ Kinetic energy was not conserved.

displacement, s = 40 m; time, t1 =?
u+v s×2 40×2
We know, s = ( 2
) t1 ⇒ t1 = u+v = 0+10 = 8 s
After the applied force is removed, only the frictional force will act on the object, that is F = 5 N
F 5
∴ For this, deceleration, a = = = 2.5 ms −2; In this case, initial velocity, u = 10 ms −1;
m 2
final velocity will be, v = 0 ms −1

We know, v = u − at 2 ⇒ t 2 = a

06. c. Given, Weight of the toy car, W = 3.92 N and acceleration, a = 0.5 ms−2
W 3.92
∴ Mass of the toy car, m = g
= 9.8
= 0.4 kg
∴ Effective force, Fe = ma = (0.4 × 0.5) N = 0.2 N
Frictional force, Ff = 0.5 N
∴ Applied force on the car, Fa = Fe + Ff = (0.2 + 0.5) N = 0.7 N (Ans.)
Since applied force and frictional force act opposite to each other, effective force, Fe = Fa − Ff
08. c. Given, Mass of the gun, M = 3 kg; mass of the bullet, m = 15 g = 0.015 kg
velocity of the bullet, v = 250 ms −1 ; Backward velocity of the gun, V′ =?

d. Given, velocity of the bullet, u = 250 ms ; Distance crossed within the iron plate, s = 10 cm = 0.1 m
According to the question, final velocity of the bullet, v = 0 ms −1 ;
In case of retardation, v2 = u2 − 2as ⇒ 0 = 2502 − 2 × a × 0.1 ⇒ a = 3.125 × 105 ms−2 ; Here, mass of the
bullet, m = 15 g = 0.015 kg
We know, F = ma = 0.015 × 3.125 × 105 ∴ Resisting force, F = 4687.5 N
(u−v) (u−v)
Now, a = ⇒t= = 8 × 10−4 s

∴ Resisting force is 4687.5 N and the bullet will take 8 × 10−4 s time to cover that distance.
u+v 250+0
Or, we know, s = t ⇒ 0.1 = t ⇒ t = 8 × 10−4 s ; the bullet will take 8 × 10−4 s time to cover that

Now, a = = = 312500 ms −2 ; We know, F = ma = 0.015 × 3.125 × 105

∴ Resisting force, F = 4687.5 N

∴ t 2 = 5.591 s; T = t1 + t 2 = 4.517 + 5.591 = 10.108 s
c. Velocity when landing on the ground, v2 = anet × t 2 = 9.753 × 5.591 = 54.529 ms −1
Restoring force by the ground, Fres = m ⋅ a = Here,

⇒a= ⇒ a = 0.8 ms−2 (Ans.)
50 m = 50kg acceleration, a =?
d. From ‘c’ we get, effective acceleration of the object, a = 0.8 ms −2
If displacement is s in 1 min,
We know,

s = ut + 2 at 2 Here, initial velocity, u = 0 ms −1 ;
1 acceleration, a = 0.8 ms−2 ; time, t = 1 min =
⇒ s = 0 × 60 + × 0.8 × 602 = 1440 m

1 1
Now, if the friction force is one-fourth the new friction force, fk′ = fk × 4 = 10 × 4 N = 2.5 N [here, fk = 10N]
∴ New effective acceleration,
F−f′k 50−2.5 Here, applied force, F = 50N ; frictional force,
a′ = ⇒ a′ = = 0.95 ms−2
m 50
fk = 2.5N;
mass, m = 50 kg ; acceleration, a =?
∴ Covered distance by the object,
1
S ′ = ut + a′ t 2 Here, initial velocity, u = 0 ms −1
2
1 acceleration, a′ = 0.95 ms−2
⇒ s ′ = 0 × 60 + 2 × 0.95 × 602 = 1710 m
time, t = 60s ; displacement, s′ =?
′
Change of displacement = s − s = (1710 − 1440)m = 270m
That is, the frictional force being one-fourth, the object will travel a distance of 270 m more than before.
12. c. We know,
W 49 Here, frictional force, Fk = 1 N ; mass of car, W = 49 N;
W = mg ⇒ m = g = 9.8 = 5 kg
Acceleration of car, a = 0.5 ms −2 ;
Again, F − Fk = ma
acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 ms−2
⇒ F = ma + Fk = 5 × 0.5 + 1 = 3.5 N
Applied force on car, F =?
