MCQ
A shell is fired vertically upwards with a velocity $v_1$ from a trolley moving horizontally with velocity $v_2$. A person on the ground observes the motion of the shell as a parabola, whose horizontal range is ....
  • A
    $\frac{2 v_1^2 v_2}{g}$
  • B
    $\frac{2 v_1^2}{g}$
  • C
    $\frac{2 v_2^2}{g}$
  • $\frac{2 v_1 v_2}{g}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$\frac{2 v_1 v_2}{g}$
d
(d)

There is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.

$S_x=U_x T+\frac{1}{2} a_0 \times T^2$

$R=U_x T \ldots (1)$

$S_y=U_y T+\frac{1}{2} g_y T^2$

$O=V_1 T-\frac{1}{2} g T^2$

$\Rightarrow V_1 T=\frac{1}{2} g T$

$T=\frac{2 V_1}{g}$

We know,

$(R)$ range $=($ Horizontal velocity $4 x) \times$ flight $+$ time $(T)$

i.e., $R=4 x \times T$

$R=V_2 \times \frac{2 V_1}{g} \Rightarrow \frac{2 V_1 V_2}{g}$

A trolley of mass $m_1$ is placed on horizontal rigid pair of rails at same height. A mass $m_2$ is suspended to the trolley vertically by me ans of a ideal massless rope. The rope hangs between rails without touching them. Trolley can move along smooth rails but can't move in any other direction. Suspended mass is given small oscillation and perform $SHM$ after displacing small from stable equilibrium position in two ways, first perpendicular to the rails and second parallel to the rails. The ratio of time period of these (second case to first case) two $SHM's$ is
