A simple pendulum with a brass bob has a time period T. The bob is now immersed in a non-viscous liquid and oscillated. If the density of the liquid is $\frac{1}{9}$ that of brass, find the time of the same pendulum.
→A plane is in level flight at constant speed and each of its two wings has an area of $25m^2$. If the speed of the air is $180km/ h$ over the lower wing and $234km/ h$ over the upper wing surface, determine the plane’s mass. (Take air density to be $1kg m^{–3}$).
→A $70kg$ man stands in contact against the inner wall of a hollow cylindrical drum of radius $3m$ rotating about its vertical axis with $200rev/min$. The coefficient of friction between the wall and his clothing is $0.15$. What is the minimum rotational speed of the cylinder to enable the man to remain stuck to the wall (without falling) when the floor is suddenly removed?
→A vector has magnitude and direction. Does it have a location in space? Can it vary with time? Will two equal vectors a and b at different locations in space necessarily have identical physical effects? Give examples in support of your answer.

There are three forces $F_1, F_2$ and $F_3$ acting on a body, all acting on a point P on the body. The body is found to move with uniform speed.
→- Show that the forces are coplanar.
- Show that the torque acting on the body about any point due to these three forces is zero.
A block of mass $25kg$ is raised by a $50kg$ man in two different ways as shown in Fig. What is the action on the floor by the man in the two cases? If the floor yields to a normal force of $700N$, which mode should the man adopt to lift the block without the floor yielding?
→An airline passenger late for a flight walks on an airport moving sidewalk at a speed of $5.00km/ h$ relative to the sidewalk in the direction ofits motion. The sidewalkis moving at $3.00km/ h$ relative to the ground and has a total length of $135m$.
→- What is the passenger's speed relative to the ground?
- How long does it take him to reach the end of the sidewalk?
- How much of the sidewalk has he covered by the time he reaches the end?
