Solution

The correct option is B 1.29 m/s
Initial $m_{1} = 9.75$ kg
final $m = 9.75 + 0.5 = 10.25$
$m_{1} v_{1} = m_{2} v_{2}$
$(9.75) (1.36) = (10.25) v_{2}$
$v_{2} = 1.29$ m/s

A freight car is moving on smooth horizontal track without any external force. Rain is falling at the rate of u m/s at an angle $θ$ with the vertical. Rain drops are collected in the car at the rate of $μ$ kg/s. If initial mass of the car is $m_{0}$ and velocity $v_{0}$ then find its velocity after time it.
