The cir cular motion of a particle with constant speed is [2005]
In circular motion of a particle with constant speed, particle repeats its motion after a regular interval of time but does not oscillate about a fixed point. So, motion of particle is periodic but not simple harmonic.

For angles of projection of a projectile (45° – θ) and (45° + θ), the horizontal ranges described by the projectile are in the ratio of [2006]
(45º – θ) & (45º + θ) are complementary angles as 45º – θ + 45º + θ = 90º. We know that if angle of projection of two projectiles make complementary angles, their ranges are equal.
In this case also, the range will be same. So the ratio is 1 : 1.
The vectors are such that
The angle between the two vectors is [1991, 1996, 2001, 2006]

Three forces acting on a body are shown in the figure. To have the resultant force only along the y- direction, the magnitude of the minimum additional force needed is: [2008]
Th e componen ts of 1N and 2N forces along + x axis = 1 cos60° + 2 sin30°
The component of 4 N force along –x-axis
Therefore, if a force of 0.5N is applied along + x-axis, the resultant force along x-axis will become zero and the resultant force will be obtained only along y-axis.
A particle of mass m is projected with velocity v making an angle of 45° with the horizontal. When the particle lands on the level ground the magnitude of the change in its momentum will be: [2008]
The magnitude of the resultant velocity at the point of projection and the landing point is same.
Clearly, change in momentum along horizontal (i.e along x-axis) = mvcosθ – mv cosθ = 0
Change in momentum along vertical (i.e. along y–axis) = mv sinθ – (–mv sinθ) = 2 mvsinθ = 2mv × sin 45°
Hence, resultant change in momentum
