Q1. A stone thrown from the top of a building is given an initial velocity of 20.0 m/s straight upward. Determine the time in seconds at which the stone reaches its maximum height. g =9.8 m / 
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

Initial velocity u = 20.0 m/s

At maximum height it ll stop

So final velocity v = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s​​​​​​2

Time taken to reach maximum height = t

We know

v = u + at

=> 

 s [g is taken negative because it is in opposite direction of motion.]

Q7. An aircraft is flying at a height of 3400 m above the ground. If the angle subtended at a ground observation point by the aircraft positions 10.0 s apart is 30, what is the speed of the aircraft?
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

The positions of the observer and the aircraft are shown in the given figure.

Height of the aircraft from ground, OR = 3400 m
Angle subtended between the positions, ∠POQ = 30°
Time = 10 s
In ΔPRO:
tan 15° = 
PR = OR tan 15°

ΔPRO is similar to ΔRQO.
∴PR = RQ
PQ = PR + RQ
= 2PR = 2 × 3400 tan 15°
= 6800 × 0.268 = 1822.4 m
∴ Speed of the aircraft = 

= 182.24 m/s  m/s
