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

The trajectory of particle $1$ with respect to particle $2$ will be

  • A
    a parabola
  • a straight line
  • C
    a vertical straight line
  • D
    a horizontal straight line

Answer

Correct option: B.
a straight line
b
$V_{12(x)}=v_{1} \cos \theta_{1}-v_{2} \cos \theta_{2}$

$a_{12(x)}=0 \Rightarrow V_{12(y)}-V_{1} \sin _{1}^{\theta}-V_{2} \sin ^{\theta}_{2}$

$\Rightarrow a_{12(y)}=0$

$x=v_{12(x)} t \ldots(1)$

$y=v_{12(y)} t \ldots(2)$

From $(1) \&(2) Y=\frac{V_{12}(y)}{V_{12(y)}}$

An insulated container of gas has two chambers separated by an insulating partition. One of the chambers has volume $V_1$ and contains ideal gas at pressure $P_1$ and temperature $T_1$ . The other chamber has volume $V_2$ and contains ideal gas at pressure $P_2$ and temperature $T_2$. If the partition is removed without doing any work on the gas, the final equilibrium temperature of the gas in the container will be
A piece of ice (heat capacity $=2100 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~kg}^{-1}{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}^{-1}$ and latent heat $=3.36 \times 10^5 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~kg}^{-1}$ ) of mass $\mathrm{m}$ grams is at $-5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ at atmospheric pressure. It is given $420 \mathrm{~J}$ of heat so that the ice starts melting. Finally when the ice-water mixture is in equilibrium, it is found that $1 \ \mathrm{gm}$ of ice has melted. Assuming there is no other heat exchange in the process, the value of $m$ is
