$A$ small boy is throwing a ball towards a wall $6 \,m$ in front of him. He releases the ball at a height of $1.4 \,m$ from the ground. The ball bounces from the wall at a height of $3 \,m$,rebounds from the ground and reaches the boy's hand exactly at the point of release. Assuming the two bounces (one from the wall and the other from the ground) to be perfectly elastic,how far ahead of the boy did the ball bounce from the ground (in $,m$)?

  • A
    $1.5$
  • B
    $2.5$
  • C
    $3.5$
  • D
    $4.5$

Two stones of masses $m$ and $2\,m$ are whirled in horizontal circles,the heavier one in a radius $\frac{r}{2}$ and the lighter one in radius $r$. The tangential speed of the lighter stone is $n$ times that of the heavier stone when they experience the same centripetal force. The value of $n$ is

$A$ strap is passing over a wheel of radius $30\, cm.$ During the time the wheel moving with an initial constant velocity of $2\, rev/s$ comes to rest,the strap covers a distance of $25\, m.$ The deceleration of the wheel in $rad/s^2$ is

$A$ particle moves over a $xy$ plane with a constant acceleration $\vec{a} = (4.0 \, m \, s^{-2}) \hat{i} + (4.0 \, m \, s^{-2}) \hat{j}$. At time $t = 0$,the velocity is $\vec{v}_0 = (4.0 \, m \, s^{-1}) \hat{i}$. The speed of the particle when it is displaced by $6.0 \, m$ parallel to the $x$-axis is,

$A$ body is moving with an initial velocity of $10 \sqrt{2} \ m/s$ in the north-east direction. If it is subjected to an acceleration of $2 \ m/s^2$ directed towards the south, then the velocity of the body after $5 \ s$ is:

$A$ ball is thrown from the ground at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal and with an initial speed $u_0$. For the resulting projectile motion,the magnitude of the average velocity of the ball up to the point when it hits the ground for the first time is $V_1$. After hitting the ground,the ball rebounds at the same angle $\theta$ but with a reduced speed of $u_0 / \alpha$. Its motion continues for a long time as shown in the figure. If the magnitude of the average velocity of the ball for the entire duration of motion is $0.8 V_1$,the value of $\alpha$ is:
