In the following example, try to identify the number of times the velocity of the ball changes:
“A football player kicks a football to another player of his team who kicks the football towards the goal. The goalkeeper of the opposite team collects the football and kicks it towards a player of his own team.”
Also, identify the agent supplying the force in each case.
Answer:
Given below are the number of times at which the velocity of the ball changes. Whenever a force will be applied on the ball then the velocity of the ball will change.
- When the first player kicks the ball towards another player of his team the velocity of the ball will change because the first player applied some force on the ball.
- When another player kicks the ball towards the goal, then the velocity of the ball will change, here again, the force is applied on the ball.
- When goalkeeper of the opposite team collects the ball, then the velocity of ball change. It becomes zero. Here the goalkeeper applies some force on the ball to stop.
- When the goalkeeper kicks the ball towards his own team, the velocity of the ball changes because the goalkeeper applies some force on the ball.

Explain why some of the leaves may get detached from a tree we vigorously shake its branch.
Answer:
We know that the leaves are attached to the tree and are in a state of rest initially. But when the tree is vigorously shaken, the branches of the tree come in the state of motion but the leaves tend to maintain their state of rest, as a result, the leaves get detached from the tree and fall down.
Force And Laws Of Motion Class 9 KSEEB Solutions Question 4.
Why do you fall in the forward direction when a moving bus brakes to a stop and fall back when it accelerates from rest?
Answer:
Initially, when the bus is at rest our body also follows the same state. But all of a sudden when the bus starts to move the lower part of our body tends to move with the motion of the bus but the upper part rejects this state of motion and continues to be in a state of rest. This results in a sudden jerk backward when a bus moves. Also, a person standing in a bus will be in a state of motion, and when the brakes are applied the lower part of our body comes to the state of rest but our upper part is in state of motion. Hence, we tend to fall forward when the bus applies brakes.

If action is always equal to the reaction, explain how a horse can pull a cart.
Answer:
In order to pull the cart, the horse pushes the ground with its foot in the backward direction by pressing the ground. As a reaction of this force, the ground pushes the horse in a forward direction. As a result, the cart is pulled by the horse in the forward direction.
KSEEB Solutions For Class 9 Science Motion Question 6.
Explain Why is it difficult for a firement to hold a hose, which ejects large amounts of water at a high velocity.
Answer:
From Newton’s third law, we know that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. So when a fireman holds a hose-pipe which is ejecting a large amount of water at high-velocity experiences a backward push due to the force of water flowing in the forward direction. Hence making it clear that due to the action of force in the forward direction the force is applied on the pipe in the backward direction, thus making the fireman difficult to hold the hose-pipe.
KSEEB Solutions For Class 9 Physics Question 7.
From a rifle of mass 4 kg, a bullet of mass 50 g is fired with an initial velocity of 35 ms-1, calculate the initial recoil velocity of the rifle.
Answer:
Mass of the gun M = 4 kg.
Mass of bullet M = 50 g = 50 × 10-3kg.
Initial velocity of the bullet v = 35ms-1
Let recoil velocity of the gun be vms-1
Before firing the bullet both gun and bullet were in rest so total momentum of gun and bullet is zero, After firing
Momentum of bullet = mv,
Momentum of gun = Mv
Total momentum of bullet and gun after firing = mv + Mv
Since there is no external force applied to the system.
So total momentum after firing = total momentum before firing
mv + Mv = 0
Mv = -mv
Here negative sign shows that there recoil velocity of the gun is in the direction opposite to the velocity of the bullet.

KSEEB Solutions Class 9 Science Question 1.
An object experiences a zero external unbalanced force. Is it possible for the object to be travelling with a non-zero velocity? If yes, state the conditions that must be placed on the magnitude and direction of the velocity. If no provide a reason.
Answer:
According to Newton’s 1st law of motion, no net force is required to move an object which is moving with a constant velocity. So when an object experiences a net zero external unbalanced force, then it can move with a non-zero velocity. Also if an object is initially at rest not net force acts upon it, thus the object may not move all.

A stone of 1 kg is thrown with a velocity of 20ms-1 across the frozen surface of a lake and comes to rest after travelling a distance of 50 m. What is the force of friction between the stone and the ice?
Answer:
Mass of the stone m = 1 kg.
initial velocity u = 20 ms-1
Final velocity v = 0 (Therefore the stone comes to rest distance travelled S = 50 m)
From third equation of motion
v2 = u2 + 2as
(0)2 = (20)2 + 2a(50)
100 a = -400
∴ a = -4ms-2
Here negative sign shows that there is relation in the motion of stone.
Force of friction between stone and ice = Force required to stop the stone

An 8000 kg engine pulls a train of 5 wagons, each of 2000 kg along a horizontal track. If the engine exerts a force of 40000 N and the track offers a friction force of 5000N then calculate
a) the net accelerating force.
b) the acceleration of the train and
c) the force of wagon 1 on wagon 2
Answer:
a) Net accelerating force = Force exerted by the engine – Frictional force.
(Here the frictional force is substracted because it opposes the motion)
= 40000 – 5000 = 35000 N
= 3.5 × 104 N.
b) From Newton’s second law of motion
Accelerating force = mass of the train × Acceleration of train
a =\(\frac{\mathrm{F}}{\mathrm{m}}\)
Mass of train = Mass of engine + Mass of all wagons
= 8000 + 5 × 2000
= 8000 + 10000
= 18000 Kg.
∴ Acceleration = \(\frac{35000}{18000}=\frac{35}{18}\)
= 1.95 ms-2.
c) Force of wagon 1 on wagon 2
= Mass of the engine × Acceleration
= 800 × 1.95 = 15600 N.

Two objects, each of mass 1.5 kg are moving in the same straight line but in opposite directions. The velocity of each object is 2.5ms-1 before the collision during which they stick together is what will be the velocity of combined object after collision?
Answer:
Mass of the first object, m1 = 1.5 Kg.
Mass of second object m2 = 1.5 Kg.
Velocity of first object before the collision, u1 = 2.5 ms-1
velocity of second object before collision, u2 = -2.5 ms-1
Here negative sign is taken because the second object is moving in the direction opposite to the direction of motion of first object.
Mass of combined object after collision
M = m1 + m2 (Since they stick together)
= 1.5 + 1.5 = 3 Kg.
Let velocity of combined object after collision be vms-2
Here there is no external force, so from law of conservation of momentum
Momentum after collision = Momentum before collision
mv = m1u1 + m2u2
3 × v = 1.5 × 2.5 + 1.5 (-2.5) =0
∴ v = 0.
9th Science Force And Laws Of Motion Notes Question 12.
According to the third law of motion when we push on an object, the object pushes back on us with an equal and opposite force. If the object is a massive truck parked along the roadside, it will probably not move. A student justifies this by answering that the two opposite and equal forces cancel each other. Comment on this logic and explain why the truck does not move.
Answer:
The logic given by students is not correct because two equal and opposite forces cancel each other only in the case if they act on the somebody. According to Newton’s third law action and reaction force always act on two different bodies, so they cannot cancel each other. When a massive truck is pushed then the truck may not the force applied is not sufficient to move the truck.

Question 17.
Akhtar, Kiran, and Rahul were riding in a motorcar that was moving with a high velocity on an expressway when an insect hit the windshield and got stuck on the windscreen. Akhtar and Kiran started pondering over the situation. Kiran suggested that the insect suffered a greater change in momentum as compared to the momentum of the motor car (because the change in the velocity of the insect was much more than that of the motor car). Akthar said that since the motor car was moving with larger velocity, it exerted a larger force on the insect. And as a result, the insect died. Rahul while putting an entirely new explanation said that both the motor car and the insect experienced the same force and a change in their momentum. Comment on these suggestions.
Answer:
The explanation given by Rahul is correct, as there is no external force on the system. So both the insect and motorcar experienced the same force and a change in momentum. .
Question 18.
How much momentum will a dumb-bell of mass 10 Kg transfer to the floor if it falls from a height of 80 cm? Take its downward acceleration to be 10ms-2.
Answer:
m = 10 Kg, u = 0
Acceleration s = 80 cm = 0.8 m.
Velocity a = 10 ms-2
v2 = u2 + 2as
v2 = 0 + 2 × 10 × 0.8 =16
∴ v = \(\sqrt{16}\) = 4ms-1
Momentum of dumb-bell just before it touches the floor
P = mv
= 10 × 4
= 40 Kgms-1.
When the dumbbell touches the floor its velocity becomes zero. Thus the total momentum of the dumbbell is transferred to the floor. Hence the momentum transferred to floor = 40 Kgms-2.
