When the man is squatting on the ground he is tilted somewhat, hence he also has to balance frictional force besides his weight in this case.

R= reactional force = friction +mg

R>mg

An object is placed beyond the centre of curvature C of the given concave mirror. If the distance of the object is d₁ from C and the distance of the image formed is d₂ from C, the radius of curvature of this mirror is:

Vishal Baghel

Using Newton’s formula,

$\Rightarrow (f + d_{1}) (f - d_{2}) = f^{2}$

$\Rightarrow f = \frac{d_{1} d_{2}}{d_{1} - d_{2}} \Rightarrow R = \frac{2 d_{1} d_{2}}{d_{1} - d_{2}}$

Two blocks M₁ and M₂ having equal mass are free to move on a horizontal frictionless surface. M₂ is attached to a massless spring as shown in Fig. 6.10. Initially M₂ is at rest and M₁ is moving toward M₂ with speed v and collides head-on with M₂.

(a) While spring is fully compressed all the KE of M₁ is stored as PE of spring.

(b) While spring is fully compressed the system momentum is not conserved, though final momentum is equal to initial momentum.

(c) If spring is massless, the final state of the M₁ is state of rest.

(d) If the surface on which blocks are moving has friction, then collision cannot be elastic.

(c) When M1 comes in contact with the spring. M1 is retarded by the spring force and M2 is accelerated by the spring force.

a) So spring will continue compress until the blocks moves with the same velocity.

b) As

(b) conserving energy between “O” ans ”A”

U_i+ K_i= U_f+ K_f

0+1/2mv²= mgh + 1/2mv’

$\frac{{(v')}^{2}}{2} = \frac{v^{2}}{2} = - g h$

(v’)²=v²-2gh = v^’= $\sqrt[]{v^{2} - 2 g h}$ ……….1

Let speed after emerging be v₁then

=1/2mv₁²=1/2[1/2mv’²]

1/2m(v₁)²=1/4m(v’)²=1/4m[v²-2gh]

V₁= $\sqrt[]{\frac{v^{2}}{2} - g h}$ ………….2

From eqn 1 and 2

$\frac{v'}{v_{1}} = \frac{\sqrt[]{v^{2} - 2 g h}}{\sqrt[]{v^{2} - 2 g h / \sqrt[]{2}}} = \sqrt[]{2}$

So v₁ = v’/

Time of contact =0.001s

U=126km/h= $\frac{126 \times 1000}{60 \times 60} = \frac{35 m}{s}$

V= -35m/s

Change in momentum of the ball = m (v-u)= $\frac{3}{20} (- 35 - 35) k g m / s$

=21/2

F= dp/dt=- $\frac{21 / 2}{0.001} N$ = - 1.05 $\times 10^{4} N$

Here – negative sign indicates that force will be opposite to the direction of movement of the ball be
