$A$ $750 \ kg$ boat is $10 \ m$ long and is floating without motion on still water. $A$ man of mass $80 \ kg$ is at one end. If he runs to the other end of the boat and stops,the displacement of the boat is:

  • A
    $1.8 \ m$ in the direction of displacement of the man
  • B
    $0.96 \ m$ in the direction opposite to the displacement of the man
  • C
    $0.96 \ m$ in the direction of displacement of the man
  • D
    $1.8 \ m$ in the direction opposite to the displacement of the man

Two blocks of masses $2 \,kg$ and $1 \,kg$ are tied to the ends of a string which passes over a light frictionless pulley. The blocks are held at rest at the same horizontal level and then released suddenly. The distance traversed by their centre of mass in $2 \,s$ is (acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,m$)

$A$ ball of mass $m$ is thrown upward and another ball of same mass is thrown downward so as to move freely under gravity. The acceleration of the centre of mass is .........

$A$ particle of mass $3m$ is projected from the ground at some angle with the horizontal. The horizontal range is $R$. At the highest point of its path,it breaks into two pieces of mass $m$ and $2m$. The smaller mass comes to rest,and the larger mass finally falls at a distance $x$ from the point of projection. The value of $x$ is:

Two blocks,each of mass $m$,are connected to each other by a massless string and placed on two inclined planes as shown in the figure. After releasing the system from rest,find the magnitude of the acceleration of the centre of mass of the two blocks. (Take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$)

$A$ particle of mass $10 \text{ g}$ is moving towards east with a velocity of $10 \text{ ms}^{-1}$ and another particle of mass $15 \text{ g}$ is moving towards north with a velocity of $5 \text{ ms}^{-1}$. The magnitude of the velocity of the centre of mass of the system of the two particles is (in $\text{ ms}^{-1}$)
