  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    How much energy in kilowatt hour is consumed in operating ten 50 watt bulbs for 10 hours per day in a month (30 days)
    Solution
    Energy consumed $$=10\times 50\times 10\times 30\times 3600 J$$
    $$[1 Kwh=3600\times 1000J]$$
    $$=\frac {10\times 50\times 10\times 30\times 3600}{3600\times 1000}kWh=150$$

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    The hydroelectric plants do not produce electricity, if the water level in the dam is less than 34 m.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    A machine raises a load of $$750N$$ through a height of $$16m$$ in $$5s$$. Calculate work done by machine:
    Solution
    We know that $$Work = F\times s$$
    Here, $$F = 750\  N$$ and  $$s=16\  m$$.

    $$W = 750\times16 = 12000\ J = 12\ kJ$$

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    A pump is used to lift $$500\ kg$$ of water from a depth of $$80\ m$$ in $$10\ s$$.
    (Take $$g=10\ ms^{-2}$$). Calculate the work done by the pump.
    Solution
    Given,
    Mass of water lifted, $$m=500\ kg$$
    Displacement, $$d=80\ m$$
    Time taken, $$t=10\ s$$

    Force, $$F = m\times g$$
    $$F = 500\times 10$$
    $$F= 5000\ N$$

    Work done, $$W= F\times d $$ 
    $$W = 5000\times 80$$
    $$W = 4\times 10^{5}\ J$$.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    A body when acted upon by a force of $$10\ kgf$$, gets displaced by $$0.5\ m$$. Calculate the work done by the force, when the displacement is in the direction of force.
    Solution
    Given - $$F = 10\  kgf$$ and $$s = 0.5\  m$$ in the direction of force.

    $$ 1 Kgf = 10 N $$
    $$ \implies F = 10kgf = 10 \times 10N = 100N $$

    $$ W = F \times s $$
    $$ W = 100 \times 0.5 $$
    $$ W = 50 J $$

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    A boy carrying a box on his head is walking on a level road from one place to another. The work done by him against the gravitational force is zero. This statement is :

    Solution
    Gravitational force on the box is acting in the downward direction. Since the boy walks horizontally, his vertical displacement is zero. Hence, when a boy carrying load on his head moves over a horizontal road, work done against gravitational force is zero.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    A man spends $$6.4 \ kJ$$ energy in displacing a body by $$64 \ m$$ in the direction in which he applies force, in $$2.5 \ s$$. 
    Calculate the force applied.
    Solution
    We know that $$Work = Force \times displacement $$.
    Here, given $$ Energy = 6.4\  kJ = 6400\  J$$ 
    $$ \implies Work =64000J$$ and $$ displacement = 64\ m$$.

    $$Force = \dfrac{Work}{displacement} = 6400/64 = 100 N$$.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Name the type of energy (kinetic energy $$K$$ or potential energy $$U$$) possessed in the following case.
    The bob of a simple pendulum at its extreme position.
    Solution
    Here simple pendulum is at a certain height and at extreme position it will not have any velocity. Hence , kinetic energy will be zero. Whereas $$ U = m\times g\times h$$.
     As it is at certain height it has some value for $$h$$. Hence, it will have certain potential energy.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    A man raises a box of mass $$50 \ kg$$ to a height of $$2 \ m$$ in $$2 \ minutes$$, while another man raises the same box to the same height in $$5 \ minutes$$. What is the ratio of work done by them ?
    Solution
    $$Work = Fs\cos\theta$$
    where, $$F$$ is the force applied, $$s$$ is the displacement, and $$\theta$$ is the angle between the force applied and displacement

    Hence, work done is independent of time taken.

    In the given cases, $$\theta = 0^{\circ}$$ as the force applied are in the same direction. Also, $$F=mg$$
    So $$W=Fs=mgs$$

    In both the cases, mass and displacement are the same.
    $$W =50\times 10\times 2 = 1000 J$$

    Hence work done is in the ratio of $$1000 : 1000 = 1:1$$.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Before a rubber ball bounces off from the floor, the ball is in contact with the floor for a fraction of second. Which of the following statements are correct?
    Solution
    $$\text{The total energy of the ball} =\text{Kinetic Energy}+\text{Potential Energy}$$ 
    The kinetic energy or the potential energy changes as the ball falls down and hits the floor. But the total energy is always conserved.
