  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    An electron and a proton are moving under the influence of mutual forces. In calculating the change in the kinetic energy of the system during motion, one ignores the magnetic force of one on another. This is because,

    Solution

    As, the magnetic field due to motion of electron and proton act in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion, no work is done by the forces. This is why one ignores the magnetic force of one particle on another.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    A proton is kept at rest. A positively charged particle is released from rest at a distance d in its field. Consider two experiments: one in which the charged particle is also a proton and in another, a positron. In the same time t, the work done on the two moving charged particles is

    Solution

    Force between two protons = force between a proton and a positron. Because of having much lighter weight than proton, positron moves away a larger distance compared to proton. 

    As, work done = force x displacement, therefore in the same time t, work done in case of positron is more than that of proton.

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    A man squatting on the ground gets straight up and stand. The force of reaction of ground on the man during the process is

    Solution

    In the whole process, the man exerts a variable force (F) on the ground to set his body in motion. This force is in addition to the force required to support his weight (mg). Once the man is in standing position, F become zero.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    A bicyclist comes to a skidding stop in 10m. During this process, the force on the bicycle due to the road is 200N and is directly opposed to the motion. The work done by the cycle on the road is

    Solution

    Just because road does not move at all so the work done by the cycle on the road must be zero.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    A circket ball of mass 150 g moving with a speed of 126 km/h hits at the middle of the bat, held firmly at its position by the batsman. The ball moves straight back to the bowler after hitting the bat. Assuming that collision between ball and bat is completely elastic and the two remain in contact for 0.001 s, the force that the batsman had to apply to hold the bat firmly at its place would be

    Solution

    \(F={\Delta p\over t}={mv-(-mv)\over t}\)

    \(2mv\over t\)

    \(2\times 150\times 10^{-3}Kg\times35m/s\over 0.001s\)

    = 10500 N

    \(1.05 \times 10^4\, N\)

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    A man of mass m, standing at the bottom of the staircase, of height L climbs it and stands at its top.

    (a) Work done by all forces on man is equal to the rise in potential energy mgL.

    (b) Work done by all forces on man is zero.

    (c) Work done by the gravitational force on man is mgL.

    (d) The reaction force from a step does not do work because the point of application of the force does not move while the force exists.

    Solution

    All forces are internal force, gravitational force and frictional force.

    Work done by gravitational force = –mgL

    Work done by internal force

    = −work done against gravitational force = mgL

    Work done by frictional force = F x 0 = 0

    Work done by all forces = mgL – mgL + 0 = 0

    Work done by reaction force = N x 0 = 0

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    A body of mass 0.5kg travels in a straight line with velocity v = a\(x^{3\over2}\) where a = \(5m^{–1/2}s^{–1}\). The work done by the net force during its displacement from x = 0 to x = 2 m is

    Solution

    Given

    m = 0.5Kg, v = k\(x^{3/2}\) where k = \(5m^{–1/2}s^{–1}\)

    (Here k is used as constant a)

    Acceleration, \(a={dv\over dt}={dv\over dx} \cdot {dx\over dt}={vdv\over dx}\)       ...(i)

    Differentiating (i) with respect to x,

    \(2v{dv\over dx}=3k^2x^2\)     \([\because\,\,v^2=k^2x^3]\)

    \(\therefore\) Acceleration, \(a={3\over2}k^2x^2\)

    Force, F = Mass x Acceleration = \({3\over2}mk^2x^2\)

    Work done, w = \(\int\) F dx = \(\int\limits_0^2 {3\over2}mk^2x^2dx\)

    W = \({3\over2}mk^2[{x^3\over 3}]^2_0\)

    \({3\over6}\times 0.5\times 5^2\times [2^3-0]\)

    = 50 J

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    A body is initially at rest. It undergoes one dimensional motion with constant acceleration. The power delivered to it in time t is proportional to

    Solution

    Suppose, m = mass of the body

    Given :

    a = acceleration produced in the body

    v = velocity of the body

    P = Power delivered to the body in a time t

    Using Newton’s second law of motion, the force is given by

    F = ma

    Both m and a are constants.

    Hence, force will be a constant

    F = ma = constant             ...(i)

    For velocity v, acceleration is given by

    \(a={dv\over dt}\)

    v = at

    p = Fv

    P = \(a^2mt\)

    or

    Since, a and m are constants, therefore

    P = constant x t

    or \(P\propto t\)

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    A body is falling freely under the action of gravity alone in vacuum. Which of the following quantities remain constant during the fall?

    Solution

    A body is falling under the gravity then kinetic energy increases and potential energy decreases but total mechanical energy (Kinetic energy + Potential energy) is constant.

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    During inelastic collision between two bodies, which of the following quantities always remain conserved?

    Solution

    In inelastic collision total linear momentum remains conserved. But total energy does not remain conserved.

  • Question 11
    1 / -0

    A mass of 5 kg is moving along a circular path of radius 1 m. If the mass moves with 300 revolutions per minute, its kinetic energy would be

    Solution

    Given mass, m = 5 kg,

    Radius, R = 1 m

    v =300rpm = \(360\over60\)rps = 5 rps

    The angular speed,

    \(\omega=2\pi v=2\pi \times 5=10\pi \,rad/s\)

    The linear speed is

    v = \(\omega R=(10\pi)(rad/s)(1\,m)\)

    \(10\pi\,m/s\)

    K.E. = k = \({1\over2}mv^2\)

    k = \({1\over2}\times (5kg)(10\pi\, m/s)^2\)

    \(250\pi^2\,J\)

  • Question 12
    1 / -0

    In a shot put event an athlete throws the shot put of mass 10 kg with an initial speed of 1 m/s, at 45° from a height 1.5 m above ground. Assuming air resistance to be negligible and acceleration due to gravity to be 10 \(m/s^2\) , the kinetic energy of the shot put when it just reaches the ground will be

    Solution

    Initial K.E. = \({1\over2}mv^2\)

    \({1\over2}(10Kg)\times (1m/s)^2\)

    = 5 J

    Initial PE at height 1.5m

    = mgh

    \((10Kg)(10m/s^2)(1.5m)\)

    = 150 J

    Total initial energy

    = 155 J

  • Question 13
    1 / -0

    A bullet of mass m fired at 30° to the horizontal leaves the barrel of the gun with a velocity v. The bullet hits a soft target at height h above the ground while it is moving downward and emerges out with half the kinetic energy it had before hitting the target. Which of the following statements are correct in respect of bullet after it emerges out of the target?

    (a) The velocity of the bullet will be reduced to half its initial value.

    (b) The velocity of the bullet will be more than half of its earlier velocity.

    (c) The bullet will continue to move along the same parabolic path.

    (d) The bullet will move in a different parabolic path.

    (e) The bullet will fall vertically downward after hitting the target.

    (f) The internal energy of the particles of the target will increase.

    Solution

    (a) \(K={1\over2}mv^2\) or \(v=\sqrt{{2K\over m}}\)

    or \(v\propto \sqrt K\), at constant mass

    \(\therefore\) \({v_1\over v_2}=\sqrt{K_1\over K_2}=\sqrt{2K\over K}=\sqrt2\)

    or \(v_2={v_1\over \sqrt2}=0.707v_1\)

    \(\therefore\) (a) is incorrect

    (b) \(\because\) \(v_2=0.707v_1> 0.5v_1\)

    so (b) is correct

    (c) velocity of the bullet changed after hitting the target so it follows different parabolic path.

    So, (c) is incorrect but (d) is correct.

    (e) Bullet will follow parabolic path as it has both horizontal as well as vertical velocity after emerging from target, so (e) is incorrect.

    (f) is correct because loss in KE is used to increase the internal energy of particles of the target.

  • Question 14
    1 / -0

    A body is moving uni-directionally under the influence of a source of constant power. Its displacement in time t is proportional to :

    Solution

    Suppose constant power acts on the body of the mass m for a time t to give it a velocity v

    K.E. = work done = power x time

    or \({1\over2}mv^2=Pt\)

    or v = \(\sqrt{2Pt\over m}\)      ...(i)

    We know that \(v={dx\over dt}\)

    or  dx = vdt

    If x be the displacement of the body, then

    \(\int\)dx = \(\int\)vdt = \(\sqrt{2P\over m}\) \(\int\)\(t^{1/2}\) dt

    \(\sqrt{2P\over m}\Bigg({t^{1/2+1}\over {1\over2}+1}\Bigg)\)

    \(\sqrt{2P\over m}{t^{3/2}\over 3/2}={2\over3}\sqrt{2P\over m}t^{3/2}\)

    Here, P = constant and m is also constant for a body,

    so x = constant \(\times\) \(t^{3/2}\) or x is directly proportional to \(t^{3/2}\).
