-Tl2-+l A motor boat moving up streams meets a raft moving down sFeam. After travelling for a period of t,, = 39 min the boat reaches a landing place where it stops for a period of q= t hr. The boat then travels down stream and meets the raft in t. = 45 min. Find the cunent velocity u by assuming the speed of the boai relative to the water V = 8 km/hr.
A swimmer enters a 97.5 m wide river at t = 0, at a point'P'on one bank. Point Q is located direcfly aeross P on the other bank. The river flow velocity is uniform and equalto 4 m/s. He cross the river by swimming

14.

perpendicularly to the flow (with respect to water), at a speed (with respect to water) which keeps reducing with time due to his physical exhaustion, at the constant rate of 4.2 m/s2. At t = 0, his speed was 8 m/s, In how much time does he cross the river? Also find the distance of the point where he lands on the other bank, from Q. Sketch roughly his Earth frame locus through the river.
15.

A student launches an elastic ball from the ground level diiectly toward a tall vertical wall. After the first launch, the ball bounces off the wall and then hits the ground. The student notices that the launch point is equidistant from the landing point and from the wall. The student then moves the launching point 20 m in the direction perpendicular to the wall and launches the ball again. After the ball bounces off the wall and
lands, the student notices that the distance between the launch point and the landing point is the same as it was the first time. Finally, the student launches the ball away from the wall. How far apart are the launch point and the landing point this time ? In all three cases, the initial velocity of the ball is the same.

ln the figure shown, the mass of the hanging block is m, while that of the block resting on the floor is 3 m.

The floor is horizontal and frictionless and all pulleys ideal. The system is initially held stationary with the inclined thread making an angle 0 = 30o with the horizontal. The blocks are now released from rest and allowed to move. The hanging block falls through a height'h' before hitting the floor. lt is found that the value of 0 becomes 600, when the hanging block hits the floor. Find the speed with which the hanging block hits the floor, using energy conservation and kinematics. Also find (dO/dt) just before the hit.
