A food packet is dropped from the plane going at an altitude of 100m. What is the path of the packet as seen from the plane? What is the path of the packet as seen from the ground? If someone asks “what is the actual path”, what will you answer?

The path of the packet seen from the plane will be a free fall in straight verticle line .

The path seen from the ground wil be a parabola . The actual path can only be defined from a particular frame of reference .

Let velocity if plane=v=initial velocity if of packet .so wrt ground it wiĺl be parabola if v is not zero and it will be free fall wrt plane it is moving with constant velocity v

U=2m/s

T=2s

a=-9.8m/square because it is released downwards

So using v=u+at

V=(2)+(2)(-9.8)

V=2-19.6 that is v=17.6 m/s

Three identical balls are placed on a frictionless horizontal surface touching each other. They stick to each other because of adhesive. Another ball of same radius and mass m is placed over the void created by the three balls. Find the forces applied by the balls kept on the floor to each other if the system remains in equilibrium.

An object of mass m = 0.25 kg oscillates in a fluid at the end of a vertical spring of spring
constant kH = 85 N/m, see Fig.1. The effect of the fluid resistance is governed by the
damping constant b = 0.07kg/s.
(i) Find the period of the damped oscillation.
(ii) By what percentage does the amplitude of the oscillation decrease in each cycle?
