प्रश्न

A stone is dropped freely from the top of a tower and it reaches the ground in 4 s. Taking g = 10m s-2, calculate the height of the tower.

योग

उत्तर

Initial velocity u = 0

Time t = 4 s

g = 10 m/s2

Let 'H' be the height of the tower.

Using the second equation of motion,

H = ut + (1/2) gt2

Or, H = 0 + (1/2)(10)(4)2

Or, H = 80 m

A free 238U nucleus kept in a train emits an alpha particle. When the train is stationary, a nucleus decays and a passenger measures that the separation between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus becomes x at time t after the decay. If the decay takes place while the train is moving at a uniform velocity v, the distance between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus at a time t after the decay, as measured by the passenger, is
