Q82
A circular disc of radius RR is removed from a bigger circular disc of radius 2R2R such that the circumferences of the discs coincide. The center of mass of the new disc is αR\alpha R form the center of the bigger disc. The value of α\alpha is
A 1/41/4
B 1/31/3
C 1/21/2
D 1/61/6
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

Let the mass per unit area be

σ.\sigma .

Then the mass of the complete disc

=σ[π(2R)2]=4πσR2= \sigma \left[ {\pi {{\left( {2R} \right)}^2}} \right] = 4\pi \sigma {R^2}

The mass of the removed disc

=σ(πR2)=πσR2= \sigma \left( {\pi {R^2}} \right) = \pi \sigma {R^2}

So mass of the remaining disc =

4πσR24\pi \sigma {R^2}

-

πσR2\pi \sigma {R^2}

=

3πσR23\pi \sigma {R^2}

Let center of mass of

3πσR23\pi \sigma {R^2}

mass is at x distance from origin O. \therefore

3πR2σ.x+πR2σ.R4πR2σ=0{{3\pi {R^2}\sigma .x + \pi {R^2}\sigma .R} \over {4\pi {R^2}\sigma }} = 0

As center of mass of full disc is at Origin. \therefore

x=R3x = - {R \over 3}

According to the question,

xx

=

αR\alpha R

\therefore

α=13\alpha = - {1 \over 3}

\Rightarrow

α=13\left| \alpha \right| = {1 \over 3}

B 1.5 m/s1.5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
C 2.5 m/s2.5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
D 0.6 m/s0.6 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Momentum of bullets per unit time

= 6 N \Rightarrow Force on gun = 6 N We cannot calculate recoil velocity with the given data.

If we consider recoil velocity at

t=1t = 1

Q85
A bullet of 10 g10 \mathrm{~g} leaves the barrel of gun with a velocity of 600 m/s600 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}. If the barrel of gun is 50 cm50 \mathrm{~cm} long and mass of gun is 3 kg3 \mathrm{~kg}, then value of impulse supplied to the gun will be :
A 12 Ns
B 3 Ns
C 6 Ns
D 36 Ns
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

First, we need to find the velocity of the gun after the bullet is fired.

We can use conservation of momentum to do this.

The total momentum of the system of the gun and bullet is conserved before and after the bullet is fired.

Therefore, we can write

mgug+mbub=mgvg+mbvbm_g u_g + m_b u_b = m_g v_g + m_b v_b

where

ug=0u_g = 0

is the initial velocity of the gun,

ub=600 m/su_b = 600 \mathrm{~m/s}

is the initial velocity of the bullet,

mg=3 kgm_g = 3 \mathrm{~kg}

is the mass of the gun,

mb=0.01 kgm_b = 0.01 \mathrm{~kg}

is the mass of the bullet,

vb=0v_b = 0

is the final velocity of the bullet (since it has left the gun), and

vgv_g

is the final velocity of the gun. Substituting the given values, we get

(3 kg)(0)+(0.01 kg)(600 m/s)=(3 kg)vg+(0.01 kg)(0)(3 \mathrm{~kg})(0) + (0.01 \mathrm{~kg})(600 \mathrm{~m/s}) = (3 \mathrm{~kg})v_g + (0.01 \mathrm{~kg})(0)

Solving for

vgv_g

, we get

vg=0.01 kg×600 m/s3 kg=2 m/sv_g = \frac{0.01 \mathrm{~kg} \times 600 \mathrm{~m/s}}{3 \mathrm{~kg}} = 2 \mathrm{~m/s}

Therefore, the velocity of the gun after the bullet is fired is

vg=2 m/sv_g = 2 \mathrm{~m/s}

.

Next, we need to find the impulse on the gun.

The impulse-momentum theorem states that the impulse on an object is equal to the change in momentum of that object.

Therefore, the impulse on the gun is given by

I=Δp=mgΔvI = \Delta p = m_g \Delta v

where

Δv=vfug\Delta v = v_f - u_g

is the change in velocity of the gun. Since the initial velocity of the gun is zero, we can write

Δv=vg\Delta v = v_g

. Substituting the given values, we get

I=(3 kg)×(2 m/s)=6 NsI = (3 \mathrm{~kg}) \times (2 \mathrm{~m/s}) = 6 \mathrm{~Ns}

Therefore, the impulse on the gun is

6 Ns6 \mathrm{~Ns}

, which is the correct answer.

Q86
This question has statement I{\rm I} and statement I{\rm I}I{\rm I}. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements. Statement - I{\rm I}: A point particle of mass mm moving with speed υ\upsilon collides with stationary point particle of mass M.M. If the maximum energy loss possible is given as f(12mv2)f\left( {{1 \over 2}m{v^2}} \right), then f=(mM+m).f = \left( {{m \over {M + m}}} \right). Statement - II{\rm II}: Maximum energy loss occurs when the particles get stuck together as a result of the collision.
A Statement - I{\rm I} is true, Statement - II{\rm II} is true; Statement - II{\rm II} is the correct explanation of Statement - I{\rm I}.
B Statement - I{\rm I} is true, Statement - II{\rm II} is true; Statement - II{\rm II} is not the correct explanation of Statement - I{\rm I}.
C Statement - I{\rm I} is true, Statement - II{\rm II} is false
D Statement - I{\rm I} is false, Statement - II{\rm II} true.
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Initial energy =

P22m{{{P^2}} \over {2m}}

, where

PP

is the momentum and m is the mass of the moving particle.

Loss of energy is maximum when collision is inelastic means when the particles get stuck together as a result of the collision.

So after collision energy =

P22(m+M){{{P^2}} \over {2\left( {m + M} \right)}}

\therefore Maximum energy loss

=P22mP22(m+M)= {{{P^2}} \over {2m}} - {{{P^2}} \over {2\left( {m + M} \right)}}

.

[\left[ \right.

As

K.E.=P22m=12mv2]\left. {K.E. = {{{P^2}} \over {2m}} = {1 \over 2}m{v^2}\,\,} \right]
=P22m[M(m+M)]=12mv2{Mm+M}= {{{P^2}} \over {2m}}\left[ {{M \over {\left( {m + M} \right)}}} \right] = {1 \over 2}m{v^2}\left\{ {{M \over {m + M}}} \right\}

\therefore

f=(Mm+M)f = \left( {{M \over {m + M}}} \right)

So statement

II

is wrong. Statement

II{\rm I}{\rm I}

says "Maximum energy loss occurs when the particles get stuck together as a result of the collision."

This is a case of perfectly inelastic collision.

Hence statement

I{\rm I}
I{\rm I}

is correct.

Q87
100 balls each of mass m\mathrm{m} moving with speed vv simultaneously strike a wall normally and reflected back with same speed, in time t s\mathrm{t ~s}. The total force exerted by the balls on the wall is
A 200mvt\dfrac{200 m v}{t}
B 100mvt\dfrac{100 m v}{t}
C mv100t\dfrac{m v}{100 t}
D 200mvt200 m v t
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

When the balls strike the wall, the change in momentum of each ball is given by:

Δp=mv(mv)=2mv\Delta p = mv - (-mv) = 2mv

Since there are 100 balls, the total change in momentum of all the balls is

ΔP=2m(100v)=200mv.\Delta P = 2m(100v) = 200mv.

The time taken for all the balls to strike the wall is t\mathrm{t} seconds.

Therefore, the average force exerted on the wall is given by:

F=ΔPt=2m(100v)t=200mvtF = \frac{\Delta P}{\mathrm{t}} = \frac{2m(100v)}{\mathrm{t}} = \frac{200mv}{\mathrm{t}}

Therefore, the total force exerted by the balls on the wall is

F=200mvt\boxed{F = \frac{200mv}{\mathrm{t}}}
Q88
If momentum of a body is increased by 20%, then its kinetic energy increases by
A 36%
B 40%
C 44%
D 48%
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Let, initial momentum of body

(pi)=p({p_i}) = p

\therefore Final momentum

(pf)=pi+20%({p_f}) = {p_i} + 20\%

of

pi{p_i}
=p+0.2 p= p + 0.2~p
=1.2 p= 1.2~p

We know, Kinetic energy

(E)=p22m(E) = {{{p^2}} \over {2m}}

\therefore

Ei=p22m{E_i} = {{{p^2}} \over {2m}}

and

Ef=(1.2p)22m=1.44p22m{E_f} = {{{{(1.2p)}^2}} \over {2m}} = {{1.44\,{p^2}} \over {2m}}

\therefore % Change in kinetic energy

=EfEiEi×100= {{{E_f} - {E_i}} \over {{E_i}}} \times 100
=1.44p22mp22mp22m×100= {{{{1.44\,{p^2}} \over {2m}} - {{{p^2}} \over {2m}}} \over {{{{p^2}} \over {2m}}}} \times 100
=p22m(1.441)p22m×100=0.44×100=44= {{{{{p^2}} \over {2m}}(1.44 - 1)} \over {{{{p^2}} \over {2m}}}} \times 100 = 0.44 \times 100 = 44
