1.

Displacement of a particle is given by the expression x = 3t 2+ 7t9, where x is

in meter and t is in seconds. What is acceleration?

Define the term relative velocity?

(b)

Write the expression for relative velocity of one moving with respect to
another body when objects are moving in same direction and are
moving in opposite directions?

(c)

A Jet airplane travelling at the speed of 500km/hr ejects its products of

combustion at the speed of 1500km/h relative to the, Jet plane. What is
the speed of the latter with respect to an observer on the ground?

60o to the horizontal. Find the ratio of the horizontal range and maximum
height of A and B?

6.

What is a uniform circular motion? Explain the terms time period, frequency
and angular velocity. Establish relation between them.

7.

bank of the river, capable of swimming at 10m/min in still water, wants to
swim across the river in the shortest time. he should swim in a direction?
