Laws Of Motion Question 243

Question: A body of mass 2 kg has an initial velocity of 3 meters per second along OE and it is subjected to a force of 4 N in a direction perpendicular to OE. The distance of the body from O after 4 seconds will be [CPMT 1976]

Options:

A) 12 m

B) 20 m

C) 8 m

D) 48 m

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

Displacement of body in 4 sec along OE sx=vxt=3×4=12 m

Force along OF (perpendicular to OE) = 4 N ay=Fm=42=2 m/s2

Displacement of body in 4 sec along OF therefore sy=uyt+12ayt2

=12×2×(4)2=16 m [As uy=0 ]

Net displacement s=sx2+sy2 =(12)2+(16)2=20 m
