Q.31 Two trains, which are moving along different tracks in opposite directions towards each other, are
put on the same track due to a mistake. Their drivers, on noticing the mistake, start slowing down
the trains when the trains are 300 m apart. Graphs given below show their velocities as function of
time as the trains slow down. The separation between the trains when both have stopped, is:

Q.52 A car is accelerating with acceleration = 20 m/s 2. A box of mass 10

kg is placed inside the car is in contact with the vertical wall as shown.
The friction coefficient between the box and the wall is  = 0.6 and
take g = 10 m/s2
(A*) The acceleration of the box will be 20 m/s 2
(B*) The friction force acting on the box will be 100 N
 (C*) The contact force between the vertical wall and the box will be 100 5 N
(D*) The net contact force between the vertical wall and the box is only of electromagnetic in nature

[Sol:
