Three taps A, B & C together can fill a tank in 6 hours. After working for 2 hours, A is closed and B and C filled the remaining part in 8 hours. What is the time taken for Tap A alone to fill the tank?
A,B and C working together takes 6 hours to fill the tank. So in one hour A,B, and C…

A 40 kg block is resting at a height of 5 m off the ground. If the block is released and falls to the ground, what is its total energy at a height of 2m (g=10m/s²)?
For such questions we have to use the idea of conservation of energy, i.e. total ene…
A truck starts from rest with a constant acceleration. During the 5th second it covers a distance of 10m. What is its acceleration?
Let us define some parameters, let, s- distance. a - acceleration. t - time u - init…
If a boy drops a ball from a window and the ball takes 3s to hit the ground, what is its velocity the second before it hits the ground? Take gravity as 10m/s^2 . (Neglect air resistance)
From given conditions we observe that, ball takes 3s to hit the ground, then one seco…
A wheel is rotating at 20rad/s is brought to rest by a constant torque in 4 seconds. If the moment of inertia of the wheel is 0.3 kgm^2, what is the angle rotated by the wheel in the first 2 seconds?
Given conditions can be written as, ω1 = 20 rad/s I = 0.3 kgm 2 t = 4 s ∵ ω2 = ω1 1 -…
A monkey climbs a 60 m high pole. In the first minute, he climbs 6 m and slips down 3 m in the next minute. What time is required for it to reach the top?
From the given conditions we find that , In the first minute the monkey climbs 6 met…
The distance between two places A and B is 60 Km. Two cars at the same time start moving from two ends with the speed of 35 km/h and 25 km/h respectively. If both cars are moving towards each other, then after what time they will meet?
Since we know that the distance b etween A and B is 60 km also Speed of car A = 35 k…
