Q71
On the horizontal surface of a truck a block of mass 1 kg is placed (m = 0.6) and truck is moving with acceleration 5 m/sec 2 then the frictional force on the block will be
A 5 N
B 6 N
C 5.88 N
D 8 N
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Maximum friction force = μ\mumg = .6 × 1 × 9.8 = 5.88 N But here required friction force = ma = 1 × 5 = 5 N

Q72
250 N force is required to raise 75 kg mass from a pulley. If rope is pulled 12 m then the load is lifted to 3 m. the efficiency of pulley system will be
A 25%
B 33.3%
C 75%
D 90%
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Load W = Mg = 75 × 10 = 750 N Effort (P) = 250 N \therefore Mechanical advantage

=loadeffort=WP=750250=3= {{load} \over {effort}} = {W \over P} = {{750} \over {250}} = 3

Velocity ratio

A 2g3{{2g} \over 3}
B g3{g \over 3}
C g9{g \over 9}
D g7{g \over 7}.
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

Let T be the tension in the string. \therefore 10g – T = 10a ....(i) T – 5g = 5a ....(ii) Adding (i) and (ii),

5g=15aa=g3m/s25g = 15a \Rightarrow a = {g \over 3}m/{s^2}
Q74

A 1503{\sqrt 3 } N
B 503{\sqrt 3 } N
C 100 N
D 753{\sqrt 3 } N.
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Change in momentum = 2 × 3 × 10 × sin60° =

60×3260 \times {{\sqrt 3 } \over 2}

Force = Change in momentum/Impact time

=3030.2=1503N= {{30\sqrt 3 } \over {0.2}} = 150\sqrt 3 N
Q75
A particle moves in xx-yy plane under the influence of a force F\vec{F} such that its linear momentum is p(t)=i^cos(kt)j^sin(kt)\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}(\mathrm{t})=\hat{i} \cos (\mathrm{kt})-\hat{j} \sin (\mathrm{kt}). If k\mathrm{k} is constant, the angle between F\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}} and p\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}} will be :
A π2\dfrac{\pi}{2}
B π3\dfrac{\pi}{3}
C π4\dfrac{\pi}{4}
D π6\dfrac{\pi}{6}
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

To find the angle between

F\vec{F}

and

p\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}

, we first need to understand the relationship between force and momentum. The force

F\vec{F}

acting on a particle is related to the rate of change of its linear momentum

p\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}

with respect to time, as described by Newton's second law of motion:

F=dpdt\vec{F} = \frac{d\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}}{dt}

Given the expression for the momentum

p(t)=i^cos(kt)j^sin(kt)\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}(t) = \hat{i} \cos (kt) - \hat{j} \sin (kt)

, we can find

F\vec{F}

by differentiating

p\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}

with respect to

tt

:

dpdt=ki^sin(kt)kj^cos(kt)\frac{d\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}}{dt} = -k\hat{i} \sin (kt) - k\hat{j} \cos (kt)

So,

F=ki^sin(kt)kj^cos(kt)\vec{F} = -k\hat{i} \sin (kt) - k\hat{j} \cos (kt)

. Now, to find the angle between

F\vec{F}

and

p\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}

, we use the dot product formula:

Fp=Fpcos(θ)\vec{F} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}} = |\vec{F}| |\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}| \cos(\theta)

, where θ\theta is the angle between

F\vec{F}

and

p\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}

. However, in this case, it's more insightful to see if

F\vec{F}

and

p\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}

are orthogonal (at a

π2\frac{\pi}{2}

angle to each other), because the dot product of two perpendicular vectors is zero. The dot product of

F\vec{F}

and

p\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}

is:

(ki^sin(kt)kj^cos(kt))(i^cos(kt)j^sin(kt))=(-k\hat{i} \sin (kt) - k\hat{j} \cos (kt)) \cdot (\hat{i} \cos (kt) - \hat{j} \sin (kt)) =
ksin(kt)cos(kt)+kcos(kt)sin(kt)=0- k \sin (kt) \cos (kt) + k \cos (kt) \sin (kt) = 0

The result is zero, indicating that the angle between

F\vec{F}

and

p\overrightarrow{\mathrm{p}}

is indeed

π2\frac{\pi}{2}

. Therefore, the correct option is: Option A

π2\frac{\pi}{2}

.

Q76

= 1 -

1n2{1 \over {{n^2}}}

Q78
A block of mass M slides down on a rough inclined plane with constant velocity. The angle made by the incline plane with horizontal is θ\theta. The magnitude of the contact force will be :
A Mg
B Mgcosθ\mathrm{Mg} \cos \theta
C Mgsinθ+Mgcosθ\sqrt{\mathrm{Mg} \sin \theta+\mathrm{Mg} \cos \theta}
D Mgsinθ1+μ\operatorname{Mg} \sin \theta \sqrt{1+\mu}
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

As the body is moving with constant velocity so forces acting on the body must be balanced.

\Rightarrow Contact force from incline should balance weight of the body.

\Rightarrow | Fcontact | = Mg

Q80
A smooth block is released at rest on a 45{45^ \circ } incline and then slides a distance d'd'. The time taken to slide is n'n' times as much to slide on rough incline than on a smooth incline. The coefficient of friction is
A μk=11n2{\mu _k} = \sqrt {1 - {1 \over {{n^2}}}}
B μk=11n2{\mu _k} = 1 - {1 \over {{n^2}}}
C μk=11n2{\mu _k} = \sqrt {1 - {1 \over {{n^2}}}}
D μs=11n2{\mu _s} = 1 - {1 \over {{n^2}}}
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

For smooth surface,

d=12(gsinθ)t12,d = {1 \over 2}\left( {g\,\sin \,\theta } \right)t_1^2,
t1=2dgsinθ,{t_1} = \sqrt {{{2d} \over {g\,\sin \,\theta }}} ,

When surface is rough

d=12(gsinθμgcosθ)t22d = {1 \over 2}\left( {g\,\sin \,\theta - \mu g\,\cos \theta } \right)t_2^2
t2=2dgsinθμgcosθ{t_2} = \sqrt {{{2d} \over {g\,\sin \,\theta - \mu g\,\cos \theta }}}

According to question,

t2=nt1{t_2} = n{t_1}
n2dgsinθ=2dgsinθμgcosθn\sqrt {{{2d} \over {g\,\sin \,\theta }}} = \sqrt {{{2d} \over {g\,\sin \,\theta - \mu g\,\cos \theta }}}
n=11μkn = {1 \over {\sqrt {1 - {\mu _k}} }}

( as

cos45=sin45=12\cos \,{45^ \circ } = \sin \,{45^ \circ } = {1 \over {\sqrt 2 }}

)

n2=11μk{n^2} = {1 \over {1 - {\mu _k}}}

or

1μk=1n21 - {\mu _k} = {1 \over {{n^2}}}

or

μk=11n2{\mu _k} = 1 - {1 \over {{n^2}}}
