A bus is moving on a straight road towards north with a uniform speed of 50 km/hour turns through 90°. If the speed remains unchanged after turning, the increase in the velocity of bus in the turning process is [1989]
= 50 km h-1 due North;
= 50 km h-1 due West. Angle between

= 70.7 km/h
The direction of this change in velocity is in South-West.
The maximum range of a gun of horizontal terrain is 16 km. If g = 10 ms–2, then muzzle velocity of a shell must be [1990]

A body constrained to move in y-direction, is subjected to a force given by . What is the workdone by this force in moving the body through a distance of 10m along y-axis ? [1994]
Since displacement is along the y-direction, hence displacement

On circular motion, the force acts along the radius and displacement at a location is perpendicular to the radius i.e., θ = 90° As work done =

Slope of position vector = & slope of velocity vector
∴ velocity is perpendicular to the displacement.
Which of the following is not a vector quantity?
A vector quantity has both magnitude and direction. In the given options, speed has only magnitude, therefore, it is non- vector or scalar quantity.
A bullet is fired from a gun with a speed of 1000 m/s in order to hit a target 100 m away. At what height above the target should the gun be aimed? (The resistance of air is negligible and g = 10 m/s2) [1995]
Speed of the bullet (v) = 1000 m/s and horizontal distance of the target (s) = 100 m.
Time taken to cover the horizontal distance
During this time, the bullet will fall down vertically due to gravitational acceleration.

A body of mass 0.4 kg is whi rled in a vertical circle making 2 rev/sec. If the radius of the circle is 1.2 m, then tension in the string when the body is at th e top of the circle, is [1999]
Given : Mass (m) = 0.4 kg Its frequency (n) = 2 rev/sec Radius (r) =1.2 m.
We know that linear velocity of the body (v) = ωr = (2πn)r
