2. (a) due north

nte rni
Explanation: Let the width of the river be L. If the man swims in a direction making an angle θ with the bank with a velocity
V, then the component of the velocity which helps him to cross the river is V sin θ. Hence, the time T taken to cross the river is
given by: ea
L
T =
V sin θ

For this time T to be minimum, sin θ should be maximum,

i.e., sin θ = +1

8. (a) 3.2 m
Explanation: man has walked in 4 sec is =4m/s x 1s = 4m
let the distance moved by trolley be x in direction opposite to that of man. So net displacement of man is (4−x )m.
Mman x (4 - x ) = M trolley x (x )
ea
80 x (4 - x ) = 320x
x = 0.8m
lL
Hence, net displacement is = 4- 0.8 = 3.2m

Explanation: In general R (rate of collection) = v A cosθ

ive

Where θ is the angle between the velocity of the rain and the normal to the cross-section A of the vessel.
∴R = v A cos 0o = v A
When the wind blows, R' = v' A cos θ, where v' is the new velocity of rain. Now,

v = √u + v

and cos θ = v

∴ R' = v' A cos θ = v A = R

11.
(c) 5 km/h
Explanation: It is given that the velocity of the man is 5 km/hr and also the rain is falling at an angle of 450 with the horizon
thus the value of tan45 will be velocity of the rain to the velocity of the man. Also tan45 is 1 so, velocity of the man is equal to
the velocity of the rain thus the velocity of the rain will also be 5 km/hr.
12.
(d) -5 km/h
Explanation: Speed of child as seen by observer in a direction opposite to the direction of motion of the belt = -9 + 4 = -5
km/h.

(b) due North
Explanation: To cross the river in shortest time, one has to swim perpendicular to the river current.

 Explanation: Final velocity of packet

P
= u2 + 2as
= 2 × 10 × 30
∴ vP = 24.5 m/s

Now, packet would fall with velocity vR = vP - vB, from rider’s prespective, where vb is velocity of rider.
Due to relative motion, for rider packet would appear to fall inclined to vertical through angle θ.

As tan-1 ( 1

θ < 30o
Hence, this option is correct.
