Question
Air pressure in a car tyre increases during driving. Explain.

Answer

Volume of a car tyre is fixed. During driving, temperature of the gas increases while its volume remains constant. So, according to Charle’s law, at constant volume (V),
Pressure (P) $\propto$ Temperature (T)
Therefore, pressure of gas increases

A monkey climbs up a slippery pole for 3 seconds and subsequently slips for 3 seconds. Its velocity at time t is given by v(t) = 2t(3 - t); 0 < t < 3 and v(t) = -(t - 3)(6 - t) for 3 < t < 6s in m/s. It repeats this cycle till it reaches the height of 20m.
At what time is its average velocity maximum?
It is a common observation that rain clouds can be at about a kilometre altitude above the ground.

A typical rain drop is about 4mm diameter. Momentum is mass x speed in magnitude. Estimate its momentum when it hits ground.
