Important Questions on Kinematics
A bomber plane moving at a horizontal speed of releases a bomb at a height of above ground as shown. At the same instant, a hunter of negligible height starts running from a point below it, to catch the bomb with speed . After two seconds he realised that he cannot make it, he stops running and immediately holds his gun and fires in such a direction, so that just before the bomb hits the ground, a bullet will hit it. What should be the firing speed of bullet. (Take )

A spot light rotates in a horizontal plane with a constant angular velocity of . The spot of light moves along the wall at a distance . What is the velocity of the spot when ?


Two identical discs of the same radius are rotating about their axes in opposite directions with the same constant angular speed . The disc is in the same horizontal plane.At time , the points and are facing each other as shown in the figure. The relative speed between the two points and is as a function of times best represented by


Two men, and are standing at corners and of a square of side . They start moving along the track with constant speed and , respectively. Find the time when they will meet for the first time.

is a point moving with a constant speed such that its velocity vector always maintains an angle with the line , as shown in the figure (where is a fixed point in space). The initial distance between and is . After what time (in ) shall reach ?
