$A$ body $A$ is thrown vertically upwards with such a velocity that it reaches a maximum height of $h$. Simultaneously another body $B$ is dropped from height $h$. It strikes the ground and does not rebound. The velocity of $A$ relative to $B v/s$ time graph is best represented by : (upward direction is positive)

A particle starts from origin at $t=0$ with a velocity $5.0 \hat{ i }\; m / s$ and moves in $x-y$ plane under action of a force which produces a constant acceleration of $(3.0 \hat{ i }+2.0 \hat{ j })\; m / s ^{2} .$

$(a)$ What is the $y$ -coordinate of the particle at the instant its $x$ -coordinate is $84 \;m$ ?

$(b)$ What is the speed of the particle at this time?

A swimmer dived off a cliff with a running horizontal leap. What must his minimum speed be just as he leaves the top of the cliff so that he will miss the edge at the bottom ....... $m/s$ is $2\ m$ wide and $10\ m$ belows the top of the cliff .

A boy is moving with a constant speed $v$ on a small trolley towards a distant circle as shown in the figure. A point mass is moving on the circle with a constant speed $v$, what is the frequency of change in magnitude of relative velocity of the point mass, as observed by the boy.

A vector has magnitude and direction. Does it have a location in space ? Can it vary with time ? Will two equal vectors $a$ and $b$ at different locations in space necessarily have identical physical effects ? Give examples in support of your answer.
