Why does a child feel more pain when she falls down on a hard cement floor, than when she falls on the soft muddy ground in the garden ?

Option A

Option B

Option C

Option D

Solution

When a child falls on a cement floor, the momentum is reduced to zero in comparatively lesser time. Due to this rate of change of momentum is large so greater force act on him and child feels more pain.

When child falls on soft muddy ground momentum is reduced in comparatively larger time hence force decreases and child feel less pain.

Physics

The displacement vector of a particle of mass $m$ is given by $\vec r (t)\, = \,A\,\cos \,\omega t\,\hat i\, + \,B\,\sin \,\omega t\,\hat j$.

$(a)$ Show that the trajectory is an ellipse.

$(b)$ Show that $\vec F =-\,m\omega ^2\vec r $.

A gun of mass $10 \,kg$ fires $4$ bullets per second. The mass of each bullet is $20 \,g$ and the velocity of the bullet when it leaves the gun is $300\, m / s$. The force required to hold the gun while firing is (in $N$)

A particle of mass $2 / 3 kg$ with velocity $v=-15 \,m / s$ at $t=-2 \,s$ is acted upon by a force $F=k-\beta t^{2}$. Here, $k=8 \,N$ and $\beta =2 \,N / s ^{2}$. The motion is one-dimensional. Then, the speed at which the particle acceleration is zero again, is ……….. $m/s$

In an hour-glass approximately $100$ grains of sand fall per second (starting from rest); and it takes $2 \, s$ for each sand particle to reach the bottom of the hour-glass. If the average mass of each sand particle is $0.2 \,g$, then the average force exerted by the falling sand on the bottom of the hour-glass is close to ………. $N$
