A body is at rest at x=0. At t=0, it starts moving in the positive x-direction with a constant acceleration. At the same instant another body passes through x=0 moving in the positive x-direction with a constant speed. The position of the first.body is given by x1(t) after time t and that of second body by x2(t) after the same time interval. Which of the following graphs correctly describes x1-x2 as a function of time t?

Two stones are thrown up simultaneously from the edge of a cliff 240 m high with initial speed of 10 m/s and 40 m/s respectively. Which of the following graph best represents the time variation of relative position of the second stone with respect to the first? (assume stones do not rebound after hitting the ground and neglect air resistance, take g=10 m/s2 ) (The figures are schematic and not drawn to scale.)

A particle of mass m is projected from the ground with an initial speed u0 at an angle α with the horizontal. At the highest point of its trajectory, it makes a completely inelastic collision with another identical particle, which was thrown vertically upward from the ground with the same initial speed u0. The angle that the composite system makes with the horizontal immediately after the collision is:

A piece of wood of mass 0.03 kg is dropped from the top of a 100 m height building. At the same time, a bullet of mass 0.02 kg is fired vertically upward, with a velocity 100 m s-1, from the ground. The bullet gets embedded in the wood. Then the maximum height to which the combined system reaches above the top of the building before falling below is: g=10 m s-2
