MCQ
Two projectiles are thrown simultaneously in the same plane from the same point. If their velocities are $v_1$ and $v_2$ at angles $\theta _1$ and $\theta_2$ respectively from the horizontal, then answer the following question

If $v_1 = v_2$ and $\theta _1 > \theta _2$, then choose the incorrect statement

  • A
    The slope of the trajectory of particle $2$ with respect to $1$ is always positive
  • Particle $2$ moves under the particle $1$
  • C
    Both the particle will have the same range if $\theta _1 > 45^o$ and $\theta _2 < 45^o$ and $\theta _1 + \theta _2 = 90^o$
  • D
    none of these 

Answer

Correct option: B.
Particle $2$ moves under the particle $1$
b
$x=v \cos \theta t=50 \times \frac{3}{5} \times 2=60 \mathrm{m}$

$y=u \sin \theta t-\frac{1}{2} g t^{2}=50 \times \frac{4}{5} \times 2-\frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 2^{2}=60 m$

$d=\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}$

$=\sqrt{60^{2}+60^{2}}=60 \sqrt{2} m$

A crew of scientists has built a new space station. The space station is shaped like a wheel of radius $R,$ with essentially all its mass $M$ at the rim. When the crew arrives, the station will be set rotating at a rate that causes an object at the rim to have radial acceleration $g,$ thereby simulating Earth's surface gravity. This is accomplished by two small rockets, each with thrust $T$ newtons, mounted on the station's rim. How long a time $t$ does one need to fire the rockets to achieve the desired condition?
