<h3>✨ ASSERTION :-</h3>

Two bodies of masses M and m (M>m) are allowed to fall from the same height . If the air resistance for each be the same then both the bodies will reach the earth simultaneously .

<h3>✨ REASON :-</h3>

For same air resistance, acceleration of both the bodies will be same .

[A] If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion .

[B] If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion .

[C] If assertion is true but reason is false

[D] If both assertion and reason are false

$\sf{\pink{\underline{\underline{\blue{SOLUTION:-}}}}}$

✍️ The force acting on the body of mass M are [its weight] ‘Mg’

Mg are acting vertically downwards

And air resistance F acting vertically upward .

Hence,

$\rm{\green{Acceleration\:of\:the\:body\:(a)\:=\:\dfrac{Mg\:-\:F}{M}\:}}$

$\rm{\implies\:Acceleration\:of\:the\:body\:(a)\:=\:g\:-\:\dfrac{F}{M}\:}$

⚡ Now, M > m therefore, the body with larger mass will have greater acceleration and it will reach the ground first .

Linda is a forensic scientist arriving at the crime scene. What must she do before she can examine the crime scene?

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

In the more scientific viewpoint, the most important thing that she must do is caring for her hygiene and put some plastic gloves in her hands.

This is because there are lots of particles that can be retained in the hands (dust, skin, etc), and when examining the scene, she may drop some of these particles, "contaminating" the scene in this way with information that only will affect the investigation.

So the most important thing is being prepared to not affect anything in the crime scene

The horizontal surface on which the block slides is frictionless.The speed of the block before it touches the spring is 6.0 m/s.

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

V = 5.4 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Let mass of the block, m = 10 kg

Spring constant of the spring, k = 2 kN/m = 2000 N/m

Speed of the block, v = 6 m/s

Compression in the spring, x = 15 cm = 0.15 m

Let V is the speed of the block moving at the instant the spring has been compressed 15 cm. It can be calculated using the conservation of energy of spring mass system.

$\dfrac{1}{2}m^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2+\dfrac{1}{2}mV^2$

$mv^2=kx^2+mV^2$

$V^2=\dfrac{mv^2-kx^2}{m}$

$V^2=\dfrac{10\times 6^2-2000\times (0.15)^2}{10}$

V = 5.61 m/s

From the given options,

V = 5.4 m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.
