A block of mass 5 is moving horizontally at a speed of $1.5 m / s$. A perpendicular force of $5 N$ acts on it for $4 sec$. What will be the distance of the block from the point where the force started acting
- ✓
$10 m$
- B
$8 m$
- C
$6 m$
- D
$2 m$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $10 m$
Assume initial velocity of $1.5 m / s$ is in the x -direction
Since there are no forces on it in this direction, there will be no acceleration.
So, distance $S _{ x }=1.5 \times 4=6 m$
In the y -direction, $F =5 N$ and $m =5 kg$
Acceleration in $y =$ direction,
$a _{ y }=\frac{ F }{ m }=\frac{5}{5}=1 m / s ^2 $
$S_{ y }=\frac{1}{2} a _{ y } t ^2=\frac{1}{2} \times 1 \times 4^2=8 m$
Resolving the x and y vector we get,
$S^2=S_{ x }^2+S_y^2 $
$S^2=6^2+8^2 $
$S=\sqrt{36+64} $
$S=\sqrt{100} $
$S=10\ m$

A body of mass $2 kg$ moving on a horizontal surface with an initial velocity of $4 m / sec$ comes to rest after $2 sec$. If one wants to keep this body moving on the same surface with a velocity of $4 m / sec$, the force required is
AnswerCorrect option: B. $4\ N$
$u=4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}, v=0, t=2 \mathrm{sec}/v$
$=u+at\Rightarrow 0=4+2 a \Rightarrow a=-2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2 $
$\therefore \text { Retarding force }=m a=2 \times 2=4 \mathrm{~N}$
This force opposes the motion. If the same amount of force is applied in forward direction, then the body will move with constant velocity.
