A projectile is fired from the surface of the earth with a velocity of 5 m/s and angle with the horizontal. Another projectile fired from another planet with a velocity of 3 m/s at the same angle follows a trajectory which is identical with the trajectory of the projectile fired from the earth. The value of the acceleration due to gravity on the planet is,

A particle is moving such that its position coordinates (x,y) are (2m, 3m) at time t = 0, (6m, 7m) at time t = 2 sec and (13 m, 14m) at time t= 5 sec. Average velocity vector (vav) from t = 0 to t = 5 s is,
A system consists of three masses m1, m2 and m3 connected by a string passing over a pulley P. The mass m1 hangs freely and m2 and m3 are on a rough horizontal table (the coefficient of friction = μ). the pulley is frictionless and of negligible mass. The downward acceleration of mass m1 is,
The force F acting on a particle of mass m is indicated by the force-time graph as shown below. The climate change in momentum of the particle over the time interval from zero to 8 s is,

A balloon with mass m is descending down with an acceleration a (where a <g). How much mass should be removed from it so that it starts moving up with an acceleration a?
A.
When the balloon is descending down with acceleration a,
So, mg - B = mx A ... (i)
where B is the buoyant force.
We assume here that while removing same mass, the volume of balloon and hence buoyant force will not change.
Let, us assume the new mass of the balloon is m'.
So, mass removed is (m-m')
Therefore,
B-m'g = m'x a ... (ii)
On solving equations (i) and (ii), we have
mg - B = m x a
B - m'g = m' x a
mg - m'g = ma + m'a
(mg - ma) = m' (g+a) = m (g-a) = m' (g+a)
That is,
That is, mass removed is m-m'
