Study Notes

A simple pendulum with a bob of mass $m$ is suspended from the roof of a car moving with a horizontal acceleration $a.$ Then A. The string makes an angle of ${\tan ^ – }\left( {\frac{a}{g}} \right)$ with the vertical.B. The string makes an angle of ${\tan ^ – }\left( {1 Read more…

Study Notes

Two blocks $A$ and $B$ of mass $m_{A}$ and $m_{B}$ respectively are kept in contact on a frictionless table. The experimenter pushes the block $A$ from behind so that the blocks accelerate. If the block $A$ exerts a force $F$ on the block $B$, what is the force exerted by Read more…

Study Notes

The force of buoyancy exerted by the atmosphere on a balloon is $B$ in the upward direction and remains constant. The force of air resistance on the balloon acts opposite to the direction of velocity and is proportional to it. The balloon carries a mass $M$ and is found to Read more…
