A boat is moving with a velocity 3i + 4j with respect to ground. The water in the river is moving with a velocity – 3i – 4j with respect to ground. The relative velocity of the boat with respect to water is

Explanation

Relative velocity =vbw=vb-vw= (3i + 4j) – (– 3i – 4j) = 6i + 8j

A 150 m long train is moving to north at a speed of 10 m/s. A parrot flying towards south with a speed of 5 m/s crosses the train. The time taken by the parrot the cross to train would be:

Explanation

Relative velocity of parrot with respect to train

= 5(10)=5+10=15m/sec

Time taken by the parrot =dvrel.=15015=10sec.

A river is flowing from east to west at a speed of 5 m/min. A man on south bank of river, capable of swimming 10m/min in still water, wants to swim across the river in shortest time. He should swim

A thief is running away on a straight road in a jeep moving with a speed of 9 m/s. A police man chases him on a motor cycle moving at a speed of 10 m/s. If the instantaneous separation of jeep from the motor cycle is 100 m, how long will it take for the policemen to catch the thief

Explanation

Relative speed of police with respect to thief

=109=1m/s

Instantaneous separation = 100 m

Time = distanceveclotiy=1001=100sec.

A man sitting in a bus travelling in a direction from west to east with a speed of 40 km/h observes that the rain-drops are falling vertically down. To the another man standing on ground the rain will appear

A boat takes two hours to travel 8 km and back in still water. If the velocity of water is 4 km/h, the time taken for going upstream 8 km and coming back is 

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Boat covers distance of 16km in a still water in 2 hours.

i.e. vB=162=8km/hr

Now velocity of water vw=4km/hr.

Time taken for going upstream

t1=8vBvw=884=2hr

(As water current oppose the motion of boat)

Time taken for going down stream

t2=8vB+vw=88+4=812hr

(As water current helps the motion of boat)

∴ Total time =t1+t2=2+812hr or 2hr 40min

A 120 m long train is moving towards west with a speed of 10 m/s. A bird flying towards east with a speed of 5 m/s crosses the train. The time taken by the bird to cross the train will be 

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Relative velocity =10+5=15m/s.

Time taken by the bird to cross the train =12015=8 sec

A vector a is turned without a change in its length through a small angle dθ. The value of |Δa| and Δa are respectively

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

When a vector is turned through a small angle dθ without changing its length, the magnitude of the change in the vector (|Δa|) is a × dθ, where a is the original vector length. The change in the vector (Δa) itself is perpendicular to the original vector, with a magnitude of a × dθ.

Two trains along the same straight rails moving with constant speed 60 km/hr and 30 km/hr respectively towards each other. If at time t = 0, the distance between them is 90 km, the time when they collide is

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

The relative velocity vrel.=60(30)=90km/hr.

Distance between the train srel.=90km,

∴ Time when they collide =srel.vrel.=9090=1hr.
