Question 1 Report
(a) A body P of mass 5kg is suspended by two light inextensible strings AP and BP attached to a ceiling. If the strings are inclined at angles 40° and 30° respectively to the downward vertical, find the tension in each of the strings. [Take \(g = 10 ms^{-2}\)].
(b) A constant force F acts on a toy car of mass 5 kg and increases its velocity from 5 ms\(^{-1}\) to 9 ms\(^{-1}\) in 2 seconds. Calculate :
(i) the magnitude of the force ; (ii) velocity of the toy car 3 seconds after attaining a velocity of 9 ms\(^{-1}\).
