Two projectiles are thrown simultaneously in the same plane from the same point. If their velocities are $v_1$ and $v_2$ at angles $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2$ respectively from the horizontal,then answer the following question. If $v_1 \cos \theta_1 = v_2 \cos \theta_2$,then choose the incorrect statement.

  • A
    one particle will remain exactly below or above the other particle
  • B

  • C
    both will have the same range
  • D

If two stones are projected at angles $\theta$ and $(90^{\circ}-\theta)$ respectively with the horizontal with a speed of $20 \ ms^{-1}$. If the second stone rises $10 \ m$ higher than the first stone,then the angle of projection $\theta$ is (acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$) (in $^{\circ}$)

At any time $t$,the coordinates of a moving particle are $x = at^2$ and $y = bt^2$. The speed of the particle is

Motion in two dimensions in a plane can be studied by expressing position,velocity,and acceleration as vectors in Cartesian coordinates $\vec{A} = A_{x} \hat{i} + A_{y} \hat{j}$,where $\hat{i}$ and $\hat{j}$ are unit vectors along $x$ and $y$ directions,respectively,and $A_{x}$ and $A_{y}$ are corresponding components of $\vec{A}$. Motion can also be studied by expressing vectors in circular polar coordinates as $\vec{A} = A_{r} \hat{r} + A_{\theta} \hat{\theta}$,where $\hat{r} = \cos \theta \hat{i} + \sin \theta \hat{j}$ and $\hat{\theta} = -\sin \theta \hat{i} + \cos \theta \hat{j}$ are unit vectors along the directions in which $r$ and $\theta$ are increasing.

$A$ particle is moving such that its position coordinates $(x, y)$ are $(2 \, m, 3 \, m)$ at time $t = 0$,$(6 \, m, 7 \, m)$ at time $t = 2 \, s$,and $(13 \, m, 14 \, m)$ at $t = 5 \, s$. The average velocity vector $\vec{v}_{av}$ from $t = 0$ to $t = 5 \, s$ is:
