Near the banks the velocity is zero. Aperpendicular

Q22. Velocity of the river with respect to ground is given by Vo. Width
of the river is d. A swimmer swims (with respect to water) Vn
perpendicular to the curent with acceleration a = 2t (where t is
time) starting from rest from the origin O att = 0. The equation
of trajectory of the path followed by the swimmer is

Q23. An object A is kept fixed at the point x = 3m and y =

1.25m on a plank P raised above the ground. At time t
= 0 the plank starts moving along the +x direction with 1.25m
an acceleration 1.5m/s At the same instant a stone is
projected from the origin with a velocity uas shown.
Astationary person on the ground observes the stone 3.Om
hitting the object during its downward motion at an
angle of 45° to the horizontal. AIl the motions are in the
X-y plane. Findu and the time after which the stone hits
the object. Take g= 10 m/s.

Q24. A large heavy box is sliding without friction dowm a smooth

inclined plane of inclination 0. From a point P on the bottom
of the box a particle is projected inside the box, with speed
u (relative to box) at angle a with the bottom of the box.
(A) Find the distance along the bottom of the box between
the point of projection P and the point Q where the particle
lands. The particle does not hit any other suface of the
box. Neglect the air resistance.
(B) If horizontal displacement of the particle with respect to
around is zero. Find the speed of the b0X W.r.t. the ground
at the moment when particle was projected.

Q25. Two swimmers leave point Aon one bank of the river to reach point Blying right across
on the other bank. One of them crosses the river along the straight line AB while the other
swims at right angles to the stream and then walks the distance that he has been carried
away by the stream to get to point B. What was the velocity u of his walking if both
swimmers reached the destination simultaneously ? The stream velocity Vo = 2.0kmh'
and the velocity v of each swimmer with respect to water equals 2.5kmh
