3. CASE BASED QUESTION

Physical quantities are broadly classified into vectors and Scalars. Physical quantities which have a
sense of direction are known as vectors, these are categorised as polar and axial vectors. Vectors cannot
be added by simple laws of algebra but by adopting vector algebra. Resultant of two or more factors
could be zero depending upon their magnitude and direction. When resultants of three vectors are zero
or null, then Lami’s theorem is applicable. Vector subtraction is similar to addition where addition of
one vector and negative vector of another is done. In our daily life vector addition and vector subtraction
is very important as far as application of mechanical force is concerned.

Based on the above information, answer the following.

1. Two equal and opposite forces have their resultant equal to either. What is the inclination

(iv) displacement, velocity, force

4. If a body moves in a circle with a constant speed, then the magnitude of the velocity is constant but the
direction of the velocity vector is changing all the time. Thus, velocity changes with time. Therefore,
the motion of the body is accelerated. The acceleration is directed towards the centre of the circle and
is called centripetal acceleration ac. If ‘m’ is the mass of the body,
Then the centripetal force Fc=mac.

There are two types of projectile motion
 I. If a football is kicked in any angle with the ground called OBLIQUE.

6. A satellite is any object that is orbiting the earth, sun or other massive body. Satellites can be
categorized as natural satellites or man-made satellites. The moon, the planets and comets are
examples of natural satellites. Accompanying the orbit of natural satellites are a host of satellites
launched from earth for purposes of communication, scientific research, weather forecasting,
intelligence, etc. Once launched into orbit, the only force governing the motion of a satellite is the
force of gravity. Newton was the first to theorize that a projectile launched with sufficient speed
would actually orbit the earth.
 I. A rocket is just launched from the ground, what is its type of motion at that moment.
II. What is the type of motion while orbiting the planet?
III. A particle is moving with a constant speed v in a circle, what is the magnitude of average
velocity after half rotation,

7. When a body moves along a circular path with a uniform speed, its motion is said to be uniform
circular motion. In uniform circular motion, the direction of velocity vector which
acts along the tangent to the path changes continuously but its magnitude (v = r ω)always remains
constant. So uniform circular motion is an accelerated motion. Abodyundergoing uniform circular
motion is acted upon by an acceleration which is directedalong the radius towards the centre of the
circular path, This acceleration is calledcentripetal acceleration. The magnitude of the acceleration is
𝑣2
constant given byac = 𝑟 = ω2r
But the direction of ac changes continuously, always pointing towards the centre. So
centripetal acceleration is not a constant vector. The resultant acceleration of the body in
circular motion is towards the centre only if its speed is constant.

acceleration vector

(a)20 m/s (b) 5 m/s (c) 10 m/s (d) 2m/s

8. A body is said to be a projectile if it is projected into space with some initial velocity and then it
continues to move in a vertical plane such that its horizontal acceleration is zero and vertical
 downward acceleration is equal to g. If an object is projected from the origin with initial velocity u,
making an angle ϴ with x- axis, then at any instant t, its position, velocity and acceleration are given
by
1
Position: x =( ucosө)t ; y =( u sinө)t - 2 gt2
Velocity :vx = u sinө = constant,
Vy= usinө – gt
Acceleration :ax = 0 and ay = - g

(v)The speed of projectile at its maximum height is half of its initial speed. The angle of projection is
(a)600 (b)150 (c)300 (d) 450

9. Circular motion is an example of motion in two dimensions. To create circular motion in a body it
must be given some initial velocity and a force must then act on the body which is always directed at
right angles to instantaneous velocity. Since this force is always at right angles to the displacement
therefore no work is done by the force on the particle. Hence, its kinetic energy and thus speed is
unaffected. But due to simultaneous action of the force and the velocity the particle follows resultant
path, which in this case is a circle.

Give the answer of followings …

(i) The change of position vector or the displacement (r) of the particle from position A to the
position B is given by referring the figure
 (ii) The magnitude of the change in velocity of the particle which is performing uniform circular
motion as it moves from A to B during time t as shown in Q.7 figure. The change in velocity
vector is given as

(iii)Acceleration acting on the object undergoing uniform circular motion always be along to
(a) along to tangent
(b) along the radius outwards the centre of the circular path.
(c) along the radius towards the centre of the circular path.
(d) None of these.

(iv) Which of the following is/are wrong for circular motion

(a) For uniform circular motion since  is constant so α= d/dt will be zero
(b) Angular velocity is an axial vector.
(c) Angular displacement is a non pseudo vector quantity.

10. In one dimensional motion of the objects only two directions are possible so the directional aspects of
the quantities like displacement position velocity and acceleration can be described by using either
positive or negative science physical quantity shown along positive direction will be given the
positive sign whereas shown along negative direction possesses negative science but in case of
motion of objects in two dimensions or in three dimension any object can have large number of
directions so in order to deal with such situation we need to introduce the concept of new physical
quantities in which we take care of both magnitude and direction in physics the physical quantities are
broadly classified into categories scalars and vectors.

(i) Angle between negative vectors is

(a) 0˚ (b) 60˚ (c) 180˚ (d) 150˚

a plane?
( a) Two (b) Three (c) Four (d)Any number
