MCQ

Two particles start simultaneously from the same point and move along two straight lines, one with uniform velocity $v$ and other with a uniform acceleration $a.$ If $\alpha$ is the angle between the lines of motion of two particles then the least value of relative velocity will be at time given by

A
$(v/a)\,\, sin \,\,\alpha$
✓
$(v/a)\,\, cos \,\,\alpha$
C
$(v/a)\,\, tan \,\,\alpha$
D
$(v/a)\,\,cot \,\,\alpha$

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

$(v/a)\,\, cos \,\,\alpha$

b
$\nu_{r}$ is subtraction of vectors. Hence,

$\nu_{r}^{2}=x(\operatorname{say})=\nu^{2}+(a t)^{2}-2 v(a t) \cos \alpha$

Now, $\nu_{r}$ will be minimum when $x$ is minimum

Hence $\frac{d x}{d t}=0$ or $2 a^{2} t-2 \nu a \cos \alpha=0$

$\mathrm{t}=\frac{\nu \cos \alpha}{a}$

Two masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are connected by a massless spring of spring constant $k$ and unstretched length $l$. The masses are placed on a frictionless straight channel, which we consider our $X$-axis. They are initially at rest at $x=0$ and $x=l$, respectively. At $t=0$, a velocity of $v_0$ is suddenly imparted to the first particle. At a later time $t$, the centre of mass of the two masses is at
