An object of mass $100 \,kg$ is accelerated uniformly from a velocity of $5 \,m \,s^{-1}$ to $8 \,m \,s^{-1}$ in $6 \,s$. Calculate the initial and final momentum of the object. Also, find the magnitude of the force exerted on the object.

  • A
    $100 \,kg \,m \,s^{-1}$ and $200 \,kg \,m \,s^{-1}$, $30 \,N$
  • B
    $300 \,kg \,m \,s^{-1}$ and $500 \,kg \,m \,s^{-1}$, $20 \,N$
  • C
    $400 \,kg \,m \,s^{-1}$ and $600 \,kg \,m \,s^{-1}$, $40 \,N$
  • D
    $500 \,kg \,m \,s^{-1}$ and $800 \,kg \,m \,s^{-1}$, $50 \,N$

Why is it advised to tie any luggage kept on the roof of a bus with a rope?

Two objects,each of mass $1.5\, kg$,are moving in the same straight line but in opposite directions. The velocity of each object is $2.5\, m/s$ before the collision during which they stick together. What will be the velocity (in $m/s$) of the combined object after collision?

According to the third law of motion,when we push on an object,the object pushes back on us with an equal and opposite force. If the object is a massive truck parked along the roadside,it will probably not move. $A$ student justifies this by answering that the two opposite and equal forces cancel each other. Comment on this logic and explain why the truck does not move.

Why do you fall in the forward direction when a moving bus brakes to a stop and fall backwards when it accelerates from rest?
