A drunkard walking in a narrow lane takes 5 steps forward and 3 steps backward, followed again by 5 steps forward and 3 steps backward, and so on. Each step is 1m long and requires 1s. Plot the x-t graph of his motion. Determine graphically and otherwise how long the drunkard takes to fall in a pit 13m away from the start.
A particle is projected in air at an angle $\beta$ to a surface which itself is inclined at an angle $\alpha$ to the horizontal (Fig.).
  1. Time of flight.
(Hint: This problem can be solved in two different ways:
  1. Point P at which particle hits the plane can be seen as intersection of its trajectory (parobola) and straight line. Remember particle is projected at an angle $(\alpha+\beta)$ w.r.t. horizontal.
  2. We can take x-direction along the plane and y-direction perpendicular to the plane. In that case resolve g (acceleration due to gravity) in two differrent components, $g_x$ along the plane and $g_y$ perpendicular to the plane. Now the problem can be solved as two independent motions in x and y directions respectively with time as a common parameter.)
Calculate the stress developed inside a tooth cavity filled with copper when hot tea at temperature of $57^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ is drunk. You can take body (tooth) temperature to be $37^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and $\mathrm{a}=1.7 \times 10^{-5} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ bulk modulus for copper $=140 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2$
(a) When a molecule (or an elastic ball) hits a ( massive) wall, it rebounds with the same speed. When a ball hits a massive bat held firmly, the same thing happens. However, when the bat is moving towards the ball, the ball rebounds with a different speed. Does the ball move faster or slower?
(b) When gas in a cylinder is compressed by pushing in a piston, its temperature rises. Guess at an explanation of this in terms of kinetic theory using (a) above.
(c) What happens when a compressed gas pushes a piston out and expands. What would you observe?
(d) Sachin Tendulkar used a heavy cricket bat while playing. Did it help him in anyway?

A star like the sun has several bodies moving around it at different distances. Consider that all of them are moving in circular orbits. Let r be the distance of the body from the centre of the star and let its linear velocity be v, angular velocity $\omega$, kinetic energy K, gravitational potential energy U, total energy E and angular momentum l. As the radius r of the orbit increases, determine which of the above quantities increase and which ones decrease.
