3.26 Two stones are thrown up simultaneously from the edge of a cliff 200 m high with initial speeds of 15 m s–1 and 30 m s–1. Verify that the graph shown in Fig. 3.27 correctly represents the time variation of the relative position of the second stone with respect to the first. Neglect air resistance and assume that the stones do not rebound after hitting the ground. Take g = 10 m s–2. Give the equations for the linear and curved parts of the plot.

3.26 For the first stone,

Initial velocity, u1 = 15m/s, acceleration, a = -g = -10 m/s

From the relation  s1=s0+u1t+ (1/2)at2 where

s0 = cliff height, s1 = total height of the fall of the first stone, we get

s1 = 200 + 15t – 5t………. (1)

When the stone hit the floor, s1 = 0, so the equation (1) becomes

(d) Initial velocity  = - v j ˆ

Final velocity = v i ˆ

Change in velocity  = v i ˆ - ( - v j ˆ )

= v ( i ˆ + j ˆ ) Momentum gain is along i ˆ + j ˆ

 Force experienced is along i ˆ + j ˆ

  Force experienced is in North-East direction.
