Question 31 Mark
The maximum horizontal range of a projected object is R. What is maximum height it reaches?
Answer
If $\theta=45^{\circ}$ then
$\begin{aligned}
H & =\frac{1}{4}\left(\frac{u^2}{g}\right) \\

Question 111 Mark
Write the formula of maximum height. What is the velocity of projectile at the maximum height?
Answer
Maximum height $H =\frac{u^2 \sin ^2 \theta}{2 g}$
At the maximum height the velocity of projectile is $u$ $\cos \theta$ only in horizontal direction.

Question 121 Mark
What do you understand by time of flight?
Answer
It is the time interval in which the projectile returns to its initial horizontal plane after being thrown. This time is equal to the vertical upward time of any body. Hence if the time of flight is T then
$
T=\frac{2 u \sin \theta}{g}

Question 141 Mark
A ball is thrown in horizontal direction from the top of a tower and another ball is dropped from the top of same tower. What will be the time difference between both the balls to reach the earth?
Answer
Zero. The formula for the vertical motion of both the balls are $s=u t+\frac{1}{2} a t^2$, where $x=0, a=g$. Hence for both the balls $t$ will be same, i.e., both the balls will reach the earth simultaneously.

Question 201 Mark
A football player throws the ball at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ to the horizontal with velocity $50 m / s$. Find out the maximum height attained by ball?
Answer
$\begin{array}{l}
\text { Maximum height } H=\frac{u^2 \sin ^2 \theta}{2 g} \\
\qquad H=\frac{50 \times 50 \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2}}{2 \times 10}=31.25 m

Question 221 Mark
What is the position vector of inst. velocity and inst. acceleration of particle moving in a circular path with a constant speed?
Answer
Perpendicular to each other. Since motion at a constant speed in a circular path produces centripetal acceleration, the direction of which is towards the centre

Question 231 Mark
Which components remains constant in the instantaneous velocity components $v_x, v_y$ and in acceleration components $a_x, a_y$ of a projectile?
Answer
In a projectile motion, the horizontal component of velocity $v_x$ remains constant while the vertical component of velocity $v_y$ changes due to acceleration due to gravity.
$
v_x=u \cos \theta, a_x=0 \text { and } a_y=-g
$
$\therefore v_x, a_y, a_y$ will remain constant

Question 261 Mark
Are physical quantities having both magnitude and direction always vector quantities?
Answer
No. They are vector quantities if they obey the law of vector addition, i.e., $\overrightarrow{ A }+\overrightarrow{ B }=\overrightarrow{ B }+\overrightarrow{ A }$. For example, electric current, time etc. are scalar even while keeping the direction.

Question 281 Mark
If $\vec{A}-\vec{B}=\vec{A}+\vec{B}$, then the value of $\vec{B}$ will
Answer
 $ \vec{A}-\vec{B}=\vec{A}+\vec{B}$
$2 \vec{B}=0$
or
$\overrightarrow{B}=0$

Question 291 Mark
If $\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B}=\vec{A} \cdot \vec{C}$, then should $\vec{B}$ and $\vec{C}$ be equal?
Answer
Generally not, but if angle between $\vec{A}$ and $\vec{B}$ is equal to angle between $\vec{A}$ and $\vec{C}$ then $\vec{B}=\vec{C}$
