A small block B is placed on another block A of mass 5 kg and length 20 cm. Initially, the block B is near the right end of block A (In the following Figure). A constant horizontal force of 10 N is applied to the block A. All the surfaces are assumed frictionless. Find the time that elapses before block B separates from A.

उत्तर
Mass of block A, m = 5 kg
F = ma = 10 N
\[\Rightarrow a = \frac{10}{5} = 2 m/ s^2\]
As there is no friction between A and B, when block A moves, block B remains at rest in its position.
Initial velocity of A, u = 0
Distance covered by A to separate out,
s = 0.2 m
Using \[s = ut + \frac{1}{2}a t^2\]
\[0 . 2 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} \times 2 t^2\]
⇒ t2 = 0.2
⇒ t = 0.44 s ≈ 0.45 s

A free 238U nucleus kept in a train emits an alpha particle. When the train is stationary, a nucleus decays and a passenger measures that the separation between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus becomes x at time t after the decay. If the decay takes place while the train is moving at a uniform velocity v, the distance between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus at a time t after the decay, as measured by the passenger, is
