Q.

A rocket is moving in a gravity free space with a constant acceleration of  2ms-2 along +x
Direction (see figure). The length of a chamber inside the rocket is 12cm. A ball is thrown from the left end of the chamber in +x direction at same time another ball is thrown -x direction with a speed of  0.2ms-1 from its right end relative to the rocket. The time in seconds when the balls hit each other is

Detailed Solution

Assuming open chamber   
           Vrelative=0.5m/s
           Srelative=4m
Time =  40.5 = 8 m/s
Alterante  
Assuming closed chamder 
In the frame of  chamber :  
 
Maimum displacement of ball A from its left end is  uA22a = (0.3)22(2)  =0.0225m
This is negligible with respect to the length of chamber ie. 4 m . So, the collision will be very close to the left end.
Hence, time taken by ball B to reach left end will be  given by
S=uBt+12at2
4=(0.2)(t)+12(2)(t)2
Solving this, We get  t2s
