] or,

v=u22gj^v = \sqrt {{u^2} - 2g\ell } \widehat j
u=ui^\overrightarrow u = u\widehat i
vu=u22gj^ui^\therefore \overrightarrow v - \overrightarrow u = \sqrt {{u^2} - 2g\ell } \widehat j - u\widehat i
vu=[(u22g)+u2]12\therefore \left| {\overrightarrow v - \overrightarrow u } \right| = {\left[ {\left( {{u^2} - 2g\ell } \right) + {u^2}} \right]^{{1 \over 2}}}

Q52
When a long spring is stretched by 2 cm, its potential energy is U. If the spring is stretched by 10 cm, the potential energy stored in it will be
A U/5
B 5U
C 10U
D 25U
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

If k be the spring constant, then

U=12×k×(2)2=2kU = {1 \over 2} \times k \times {\left( 2 \right)^2} = 2k
Ufinal=12×k×(10)2=50k{U_{final}} = {1 \over 2} \times k \times {\left( {10} \right)^2} = 50k
UUfinal=2k50k=125\Rightarrow {U \over {{U_{final}}}} = {{2k} \over {50k}} = {1 \over {25}}
Ufinal=25U\Rightarrow {U_{final}} = 25U
Q53
A particle is projected making an angle of 45 o with horizontal having kinetic energy K. The kinetic energy at highest point will be
A K2{K \over {\sqrt 2 }}
B K2{K \over 2}
C 2K
D K
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

Kinetic energy of the ball = K and angle of projection (θ\theta) = 45 o Velocity of the ball at the highest point = v cos θ\theta

=vcos45o=v2= v\,\,\cos \,\,{45^o} = {v \over {\sqrt 2 }}

Therefore kinetic energy of the ball \Rightarrow

12m×(v2)=14mv2=K2{1 \over 2}m \times \left( {{v \over {\sqrt 2 }}} \right) = {1 \over 4}m{v^2} = {K \over 2}
Q54
Two springs A and B having spring constant K A and K B (K A = 2K B ) are stretched by applying force of equal magnitude. If energy stored in spring A is E A then energy stored in B will be
A 2E A
B E A /4
C E A /2
D 4E A
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Energy =

12Kx2=12F2K{1 \over 2}K{x^2} = {1 \over 2}{{{F^2}} \over K}
KAKB=2{{{K_A}} \over {{K_B}}} = 2

\therefore

EAEB=12EB=2EA{{{E_A}} \over {{E_B}}} = {1 \over 2} \Rightarrow {E_B} = 2{E_A}
Q55
A child is sitting on a swing. Its minimum and maximum heights from the ground 0.75 m and 2 m respectively, its maximum speed will be
A 10 m/s
B 5 m/s
C 8 m/s
D 15 m/s
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

Drop in P.E. = maximum K.E. mg(2 – 0.75) = 1mv 2 \Rightarrow v =

2g(1.25)=5m/s\sqrt {2g\left( {1.25} \right)} = 5\,m/s
Q56
If F=(60i^+15j^3k^)\overrightarrow F = \left( {60\widehat i + 15\widehat j - 3\widehat k} \right) N and v=(2i^4j^+5k^)\overrightarrow v = \left( {2\widehat i - 4\widehat j + 5\widehat k} \right) m/s, then instantaneous power is
A 195 watt
B 45 watt
C 75 watt
D 100 watt.
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

P =

F.v=(60i^+15j^3k^).(2i^4j^+5k^)\overrightarrow F .\overrightarrow v = \left( {60\widehat i + 15\widehat j - 3\widehat k} \right).\left( {2\widehat i - 4\widehat j + 5\widehat k} \right)

= 120 – 60 – 15 = 45 watts.

Q57
A mass of 1 kg is thrown up with a velocity of 100 m/s. After 5 seconds, it explodes into two parts. One part of mass 400 g comes down with a velocity 25 m/s. The velocity of other part is (Take g = 10 ms -2 )
A 40 m/s
B 50 m/s
C 100 m/s
D 60 m/s
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Velocity after 5 sec, v = u – gt = 100 – 10 × 5 = 50 m/s By conservation of momentum 1 × 50 = 0.4 × (–25) + 0.6 × v' 60 = 0.6 × v' \Rightarrow v' = 100 m/s upwards

Q58
A bullet of mass 0.1 kg0.1 \mathrm{~kg} moving horizontally with speed 400 ms1400 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1} hits a wooden block of mass 3.9 kg3.9 \mathrm{~kg} kept on a horizontal rough surface. The bullet gets embedded into the block and moves 20 m20 \mathrm{~m} before coming to rest. The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is __________. (Given g=10 m/s2g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} )
A 0.65
B 0.25
C 0.50
D 0.90
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

First, we will use conservation of momentum to find the velocity of the bullet-block system just after the bullet gets embedded into the block.

The initial momentum of the system is given by the momentum of the bullet (as the block is initially at rest), and the final momentum of the system is the combined momentum of the bullet and the block.

Setting initial momentum equal to final momentum: mbulletvbullet=(mbullet+mblock)vfinalm_{\text{bullet}} \cdot v_{\text{bullet}} = (m_{\text{bullet}} + m_{\text{block}}) \cdot v_{\text{final}} Solving for (vfinalv_{\text{final}}): vfinal=mbulletvbulletmbullet+mblockv_{\text{final}} = \dfrac{m_{\text{bullet}} \cdot v_{\text{bullet}}}{m_{\text{bullet}} + m_{\text{block}}} Substituting the given values: vfinal=0.1kg400m/s0.1kg+3.9kg=10m/sv_{\text{final}} = \dfrac{0.1 \, \text{kg} \cdot 400 \, \text{m/s}}{0.1 \, \text{kg} + 3.9 \, \text{kg}} = 10 \, \text{m/s} Next, we know the block comes to rest after moving 20 m due to friction.

The work done by the friction force is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the block (since it comes to rest, the final kinetic energy is 0).

The work done by friction is given by the friction force times the distance, and the friction force is equal to the coefficient of friction times the normal force (which is equal to the weight of the block).

So, setting the work done by friction equal to the initial kinetic energy of the block: μ(mbullet+mblock)gd=12(mbullet+mblock)vfinal2\mu \cdot (m_{\text{bullet}} + m_{\text{block}}) \cdot g \cdot d = \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot (m_{\text{bullet}} + m_{\text{block}}) \cdot v_{\text{final}}^2 Solving for (μ\mu): μ=12(mbullet+mblock)vfinal2(mbullet+mblock)gd\mu = \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot (m_{\text{bullet}} + m_{\text{block}}) \cdot v_{\text{final}}^2}{(m_{\text{bullet}} + m_{\text{block}}) \cdot g \cdot d} Substituting the given values: μ=12(0.1kg+3.9kg)(10m/s)2(0.1kg+3.9kg)10m/s220m=0.25\mu = \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot (0.1 \, \text{kg} + 3.9 \, \text{kg}) \cdot (10 \, \text{m/s})^2}{(0.1 \, \text{kg} + 3.9 \, \text{kg}) \cdot 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \cdot 20 \, \text{m}} = 0.25

A 1212 JJ
B 3.63.6 JJ
C 7.27.2 JJ
D 12001200 JJ
