Q61
A body of mass m starts moving from rest along x-axis so that its velocity varies as υ=as\upsilon = a\sqrt s where a is a constant and s is the distance covered by the body. The total work done by all the forces acting on the body in the first t seconds after the start of the motion is :
A 18{1 \over 8}\, m a4 t2
B 8 m a4 t2
C 4 m a4 t2
D 14{1 \over 4}\, m a4 t2
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Given,

υ\upsilon

= a

s\sqrt s

\Rightarrow

\,\,\,
dsdt=as{{ds} \over {dt}} = a\sqrt s

\Rightarrow

\,\,\,
0tdss=0zadt\int\limits_0^t {{{ds} \over {\sqrt s }}} = \int\limits_0^z {a\,dt}

\Rightarrow

\,\,\,

2

s\sqrt s

= at \Rightarrow

\,\,\,

s =

a2t24{{{a^2}{t^2}} \over 4}

=

12.a22.t2{1 \over 2}.{{{a^2}} \over 2}.{t^2}
\therefore\,\,\,\,

acceleration =

a22{{{a^2}} \over 2}
\therefore\,\,\,

Force (F) = m ×\times

a22{{{a^2}} \over 2}
\therefore\,\,\,\,

Work done = F. S =

ma22×a2t24{{m{a^2}} \over 2} \times {{{a^2}{t^2}} \over 4}

=

ma4t28{{m{a^4}{t^2}} \over 8}
Q62
Two particles of the same mass m are moving in circular orbits because of force, given by F(r)=16rr3F\left( r \right) = {{ - 16} \over r} - {r^3} The first particle is at a distance r = 1, and the second, at r = 4. The best estimate for the ratio of kinetic energies of the first and the second particle is closest to :
A 6×1026 \times {10^{ - 2}}
B 3×1033 \times {10^{ - 3}}
C 101{10^{ - 1}}
D 6×1026 \times {10^{ 2}}
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

In circular motion the force required

F=mv2r\left| F \right| = {{m{v^2}} \over r}
\therefore\,\,\,
mv2r=16r+r3{{m{v^2}} \over r} = {{16} \over r} + {r^3}

\Rightarrow mv2 = 16 + r4

\therefore\,\,\,

kinetic energy (K) =

12{1 \over 2}

mv2 =

12{1 \over 2}

[ 16 + r4]

\therefore\,\,\,

Kinetic energy of first particle (K1) =

12{1 \over 2}

[16 + 1] Kinetic energy of second particle (K2) =

12{1 \over 2}

[16 + 44]

\therefore\,\,\,\,
K1K2{{{K_1}} \over {{K_2}}}

=

16+1216+2562{{{{16 + 1} \over 2}} \over {{{16 + 256} \over 2}}}

=

17272{{17} \over {272}}

\Rightarrow

\,\,\,
K1K2=6×102{{{K_1}} \over {{K_2}}} = 6 \times {10^{ - 2}}
Q63
A particle of mass mm moves on a straight line with its velocity increasing with distance according to the equation v=αxv=\alpha \sqrt{x}, where α\alpha is a constant. The total work done by all the forces applied on the particle during its displacement from x=0x=0 to x=dx=\mathrm{d}, will be :
A m2α2 d\dfrac{\mathrm{m}}{2 \alpha^2 \mathrm{~d}}
B md2α2\dfrac{\mathrm{md}}{2 \alpha^2}
C mα2 d2\dfrac{\mathrm{m} \alpha^2 \mathrm{~d}}{2}
D 2 mα2 d2 \mathrm{~m} \alpha^2 \mathrm{~d}
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

To find the total work done by all forces applied on the particle during its displacement, we can use the work-energy theorem which states that the work done by all forces on an object is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the object.

So, we first need to find the initial and final kinetic energies of the particle and then calculate the work done.

The velocity of the particle is given by

v=αxv = \alpha \sqrt{x}

, and the kinetic energy

KK

of the particle is given by

K=12mv2K = \frac{1}{2} m v^2

. We can substitute the expression for

vv

into this formula to get the kinetic energy as a function of position

xx

:

K(x)=12m(αx)2=12mα2xK(x) = \frac{1}{2} m (\alpha \sqrt{x})^2 = \frac{1}{2} m \alpha^2 x

To find the total work done from

x=0x = 0

to

x=dx = d

, we need to compute the difference in kinetic energy between these two points:

W=K(d)K(0)W = K(d) - K(0)

At

x=dx = d

,

K(d)=12mα2dK(d) = \frac{1}{2} m \alpha^2 d

At

x=0x = 0

, since the particle starts from this position,

K(0)=12mα2(0)=0K(0) = \frac{1}{2} m \alpha^2 (0) = 0

So, the work done

WW

is simply the kinetic energy at

x=dx = d

,

W=12mα2d0=12mα2dW = \frac{1}{2} m \alpha^2 d - 0 = \frac{1}{2} m \alpha^2 d

This matches with Option C:

mα2d2\frac{m \alpha^2 d}{2}

.

Q64
A block moving horizontally on a smooth surface with a speed of 40 m/s splits into two parts with masses in the ratio of 1 : 2. If the smaller part moves at 60 m/s in the same direction, then the fractional change in kinetic energy is :-
A 13{{1 \over 3}}
B 23{{2 \over 3}}
C 18{{1 \over 8}}
D 14{{1 \over 4}}
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

3MV0 = 2MV2 + MV1 3V0 = 2V2 + V1 120 = 2V2 + 60 \Rightarrow V2 = 30 m/s

ΔK.E.K.E.=12MV12+122MV22123MV02123MV02{{\Delta K.E.} \over {K.E.}} = {{{1 \over 2}MV_1^2 + {1 \over 2}2MV_2^2 - {1 \over 2}3MV_0^2} \over {{1 \over 2}3MV_0^2}}
=V12+2V223V023V02= {{V_1^2 + 2V_2^2 - 3V_0^2} \over {3V_0^2}}
=3600+180048004800=18= {{3600 + 1800 - 4800} \over {4800}} = {1 \over 8}
Q65
A body of mass m = 10–2 kg is moving in a medium and experiences a frictional force F = –kv2. Its initial speed is v0 = 10 ms–1. If, after 10 s, its energy is 18mv02{1 \over 8}mv_0^2, the value of k will be:
A 10-1 kg m-1 s-1
B 10-3 kg m-1
C 10-3 kg s-1
D 10-4 kg m-1
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

According to the question, final kinetic energy =

18mv02{1 \over 8}mv_0^2

Let final speed of the body = Vf So final kinetic energy =

12mvf2{1 \over 2}mv_f^2

According to question,

12mvf2{1 \over 2}mv_f^2

=

18mv02{1 \over 8}mv_0^2
vf=v02\Rightarrow {v_f} = {{{v_0}} \over 2}

=

102{{10} \over 2}

= 5 m/s Given that, F = –kv2 \Rightarrow

m(dvdt)m\left( {{{dv} \over {dt}}} \right)
=kv2= - k{v^2}
102(dvdt)=kv2\Rightarrow {10^{ - 2}}\left( {{{dv} \over {dt}}} \right) = - k{v^2}
105dvv2=100k010dt\Rightarrow \int\limits_{10}^5 {{{dv} \over {{v^2}}}} = - 100k\int\limits_0^{10} {dt}
15110=100k×10\Rightarrow {1 \over 5} - {1 \over {10}} = 100k \times 10
k=104kgm1\Rightarrow k = {10^{ - 4}}kg\,{m^{ - 1}}

Q68
A particle moves in a straight line with retardation proportional to its displacement. Its loss of kinetic energy for any displacement xx is proportional to
A xx
B ex{e^x}
C x2{x^2}
D logex{\log _e}x
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Given that, retardation \propto displacement \Rightarrow

a=kxa=-kx

But we know

a=vdvdxa = v{{dv} \over {dx}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,

\therefore

vdvdx=kx{{vdv} \over {dx}} = - kx
v1v2vdv=k0xxdx\Rightarrow \int\limits_{{v_1}}^{{v_2}} v \,dv = - k\int\limits_0^x {xdx}
(v22v12)=kx22\left( {v_2^2 - v_1^2} \right) = - k{{{x^2}} \over 2}
12m(v22v12)=12mk(x22)\Rightarrow {1 \over 2}m\left( {v_2^2 - v_1^2} \right) = {1 \over 2}mk\left( {{{ - x^2} \over 2}} \right)

\therefore Loss in kinetic energy is proportional to

x2{x^2}

. \therefore

ΔKx2\Delta K \propto {x^2}
Q69
An elevator in a building can carry a maximum of 10 persons, with the average mass of each person being 68 kg, The mass of the elevator itself is 920 kg and it moves with a constant speed of 3 m/s. The frictional force opposing the motion is 6000 N. If the elevator is moving up with its full capacity, the power delivered by the motor to the elevator (g = 10 m/s2) must be at least :
A 48000 W
B 62360 W
C 56300 W
D 66000 W
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Net force on motor will be Fm = [920 + 68(10)]g + 6000 = 22000 N So, required power for motor P = Fm.V = 22000×\times3 = 66000 W

Q70
An object is dropped from a height h from the ground. Every time it hits the ground it looses 50% of its kinetic energy. The total distance covered as t \to \infty is :
A 3h
B \infty
C 53{5 \over 3}h
D 83{8 \over 3}h
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Let, Kinetic energy (k) =

12{1 \over 2}

m

υ\upsilon

2 before it hit the ground. After hitting the ground kinetic energy (k') =

12{1 \over 2}

m

\therefore\,\,\,

According to the question,

12{1 \over 2}

m

υ\upsilon

1 =

v2{v \over {\sqrt 2 }}

After hitting the ground the object will bounce h' =

v122g{{v_1^2} \over {2g}}

=

v24g{{{v^2}} \over {4g}}

=

h2{h \over 2}

[ as h =

v22g{{{v^2}} \over {2g}}

] Total distance travelled from the time it first hits the ground to the next time it hits the ground is =

h2{h \over 2}

+

h2{h \over 2}

= h So, this will create a infinite geometric progression with the common ration

12{1 \over 2}

.

\therefore\,\,\,

Total distance covered = h (distance travelled by the obhect when first dropped, before it hits the ground) + (h +
