$A$ particle is acted upon by a force of constant magnitude which is always perpendicular to the velocity of the particle. The motion of the particle takes place in a plane. It follows that:

  • A
    It moves in a circular path
  • B
    Acceleration is constant
  • C
    Kinetic energy is constant
  • D
    Both $(a)$ and $(c)$

$A$ ball of mass $1 \; kg$ is thrown vertically upwards and returns to the ground after $3 \; s$. Another ball,thrown at $60^{\circ}$ with the vertical,also stays in the air for the same time before it touches the ground. The ratio of the two maximum heights reached is:

$A$ particle moves in space according to the equation $\vec{r} = (\sin t \hat{i} + \cos t \hat{j} + t \hat{k}) \text{ m}$. Find the time $t$ when the position vector and acceleration vector are perpendicular to each other.

$A$ projectile is thrown with a velocity of $10\,m/s$ at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The time interval between the moments when the speed is $\sqrt{5g}\,m/s$ is $..........\,s$ (take $g=10\,m/s^2$).

Starting from the origin at time $t=0,$ with initial velocity $5 \hat{j} \, m/s,$ a particle moves in the $x-y$ plane with a constant acceleration of $(10 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j}) \, m/s^2$. At time $t$,its coordinates are $(20 \, m, y_0 \, m)$. The values of $t$ and $y_0$ are respectively:

$A$ particle at a distance of $1 \ m$ from the origin starts moving,such that $dr/d\theta = r$,where $r$ and $\theta$ are polar coordinates. Then,the angle between the resultant velocity and the tangential velocity is
