MCQ
A body $A$ moves with a uniform acceleration $a$ and zero initial velocity. Another body $B$, starts from the same point moves in the same direction with a constant velocity $v$. The two bodies meet after a time $t$. The value of $t$ is
  • $\frac{{2v}}{a}$
  • B
    $\frac{v}{a}$
  • C
    $\frac{v}{{2a}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt {\frac{v}{{2a}}} $

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{{2v}}{a}$
a
(a)$\frac{1}{2}a{t^2} = vt \Rightarrow t = \frac{{2v}}{a}$

A block of mass $M$ has a circular cut with a frictionless surface as shown. The block rests on the horizontal frictionless surface of a fixed table. Initially the right edge of the block is at $x=0$, in a co-ordinate system fixed to the table. A point mass $m$ is released from rest at the topmost point of the path as shown and it slides down. When the mass loses contact with the block, its position is $\mathrm{x}$ and the velocity is $\mathrm{v}$. At that instant, which of the following options is/are correct?

$[A]$ The $x$ component of displacement of the center of mass of the block $M$ is : $-\frac{m R}{M+m}$.
