I. Work out the following questions by showing all the necessary steps.
1. Assume that an airplane flying horizontally drops a package to a remote village.
A. What kind of motion is performed by the package?
B. As the package hits the ground at the village, where is the aircraft?
2. A golfer kicks a ball from horizontal ground, giving it an initial velocity of 50m/s at an angle
of 37° to the horizontal.
A. Where will the ball be 4 seconds after it is kicked?
B. Where will be the greatest height reached by the ball?
C. Where will the ball land?
3. A girl throws a stone from the top of the cliff which is 20m from the bottom in to the sea.
When the stone leaves her hand it is travelling horizontally at a velocity of 40m/s.
A. How long will it take the stone to reach the sea?
B. How far from the bottom of the cliff will it be when it enters the sea?
4. A ball is thrown from the top of the building up ward at angle of 30 degree to the horizontal
with an initial speed of 50m/s .The height of the building is 80m.
A. How long does it take the stone to reach the ground?
B. What is its range?
5. At what angle should a projectile be fired to make the range of the projectile four times that
the maximum height?
6. A rope is wrapped many times around a pulley of radius 20 cm. What is the average angular
velocity of the pulley if it lifts a bucket to 10min 5s?
7. A disk initially at rest rotates with an angular acceleration through an angular displacement of
50 rad in 4 seconds. What is the angular speed of the disk after 5 seconds?
8. A disc with moment of inertia 2 kgm2 changes its angular speed from 3 rad/s to 8rad/s by a net
torque 50 Nm. How long will the disc take to change its angular speed?
9. A planet like body is rotating around the sun at a distance four times the distance from the
center of the earth to the center of the sun. What is the period of revolution of the body?
