Explanation – here A and B vectors are joint by head and tail. So C= A+B
(a) from fig iv it is clear that c=a+b

(a) From fig iii it is clear that c+b=a so a-c=b
(b) From fig I it is clear that b=a+c so b-a =c
(c) From ii it is clea
(a) Earth can be thought of as a sphere of radius 6400 km. Any object (or a person) is performing circular motion around the axis of earth due to earth’s rotation (period 1 day). What is acceleration of object on the surface of the earth (at equator) towards its centre ? How does these accelerations compare with g = 9.8 m/s2?
(b) Earth also moves in circular orbit around sun once every year with on orbital radius of 11 1.5 10 × m . What is the acceleration of earth (or any object on the surface of the earth) towards the centre of the sun? How does this acceleration compare with g = 9.8 m/s2?

Explanation – a) radius of earth =6400km= 6.4
Time period = 1 day = 24 = 86400s
Centripetal acceleration a= w2r= R(2 )2=4 2R/T
= = 0.034m/s2
b) time = 1yr=365 days= 365=3.15
centripetal acceleration = Rw2=

A fighter plane is flying horizontally at an altitude of 1.5 km with speed 720 km/h. At what angle of sight (w.r.t. horizontal) when the target is seen, should the pilot drop the bomb in order to attack the target?
A fighter plane is flying horizontally at an altitude of 1.5 km with speed 720 km/h. At what angle of sight (w.r.t. horizontal) when the target is seen, should the pilot drop the bomb in order to attack the target?
This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation- when it be at position P, drops a bomb to hit a target T
Let

Speed of the plane =720km/h = 720 = 200m/s
Altitude of the plane P’T = 1.5km= 1500m
If bomb hits the target after time t then horizontal distance travelled b
In dealing with motion of projectile in air, we ignore effect of air resistance on motion. This gives trajectory as a parabola as you have studied. What would the trajectory look like if air resistance is included? Sketch such a trajectory and explain why you have drawn it that way.

This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation – due to air resistance particle energy as well as horizontal component of velocity keep on decreasing making the fall steeper then rise. When we are neglecting air resistance path is parabola when we consider air resis
A boy throws a ball in air at 60° to the horizontal along a road with a speed of 10 m/s (36km/h). Another boy sitting in a passing by car observes the ball. Sketch the motion of the ball as observed by the boy in the car, if car has a speed of (18km/h). Give explanation to support your diagram.

This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation – The boy throws the ball at an angle of 60.

Horizontal component of velocity 4cos = 10cos60
=10 (1/2)
=5m/s.
so horizontal speed of the car is same, hence relative velocity of car and ball in the horizontal direction will
A boy travelling in an open car moving on a levelled road with constant speed tosses a ball vertically up in the air and catches it back. Sketch the motion of the ball as observed by a boy standing on the footpath. Give explanation to support your diagram.

This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation – The path of the ball observed by a boy standing on the footpath is parabolic. The horizontal speed of the ball is same as that of the car, therefore ball as well car travels equal horizontal distance, due to vert
A, B and C are three non-collinear, non co-planar vectors. What can you say about direction of A × (B × C)?

Explanation – the direction of (B ) will be perpendicular the plane containing B and B by right hand rule. A will lie in the plane of B and C and is perpendicular to vector A.
A football is kicked into the air vertically upwards. What is its (a) acceleration, and (b) velocity at the highest point?
A football is kicked into the air vertically upwards. What is its (a) acceleration, and (b) velocity at the highest point?
This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation- if the football is kicked into the air vertically upwards. Acceleration of football will always vertically downwards and equal to acceleration due to gravity. But when it reaches the highest point its velocity is zero
