Question
CBSEENPH11026251

A shell of mass 20 kg at rest explodes into two fragments whose masses are in the ratio 2 : 3. The smaller fragment moves with a velocity of 6 m/s. The kinetic energy of the larger fragment is

  • 96 J

  • 216 J

  • 144 J

  • 360 J

Solution

A.

96 J

Total mass of the shell = 20 kg

Ratio of the masses of the fragments are 8 kg and 12 kg 

Now according to the conservation of momentum 

             m1 v1 = m2 v2

∴            8 × 6 = 12  × v

v (velocity of the larger fragment) = 4 m/s

  Kinetic energy = 12mv2

                        = 12 × 12 × 42

   Kinetic energy = 96 J

Question

An electric bulb has a rated power of 50 W at 100 V. If it is used on an AC source 200 V, 50 Hz, a choke has to be used in series with it. This choke should have an inductance of

  • 0.1 mH

  • 1 mH

  • 0.1 mH

  • 1.1 H

Solution

D.

1.1 H

Power P = I × V

             = V R × V

           P = V2 R

Resistance of bulb

          R = V2P

           R = 100250

               = 200 Ω 

Current through bulb

            (I) = VR

                 = 100200

              I  =  0.5 A

In a circuit containing inductive reactance (XL ) and resistance (R ), impedance (Z) of the circuit is

             Z = R2 + ω2 L2              ...... (i)

             Z = 2000.5

             Z = 400 Ω

Now,      XL2 = Z2 - R2

             XL2  = ( 400 )2  - ( 200 )2

           2 πf L2 = 12 × 104

             L = 23 × 1002π × 50

                  = 23 π

              L = 1.1 H

Question
CBSEENPH11026254

Three concurrent co-planar forces 1 N, 2 N and 3 N acting along different directions on a body

  • can keep the body in equilibrium if 2 N and 3 N act at right angle

  • can keep the body in equilibrium if 1 N and 2 N act at right angle

  • cannot keep the body in equilibrium

  • can keep the body in equilibrium in 1 N and 3 N act at an acute angle

Solution

C.

cannot keep the body in equilibrium

If we keep 1 N and 2 N forces act in the same direction then these are balanced by 3 N force, but this is against statement of question.

Hence, options (c) is correct.

Question
CBSEENPH11026255

The work done by a force acting on a body is as shown in the graph. The total work done in covering an initial distance of 20 m is

  • 225 J

  • 200 J

  • 400 J

  • 175 J

Solution

B.

200 J

Work done W = Area ABCEFDA

                     = Area ABCD + Area CEFD

 

                    = Area ABCD + Area CEFD

                    =  12 × 15 + 10 × 10 + 12 + 10 + 20  × 5

Work done W = 125 + 75

                     = 200 J

Question
CBSEENPH11026257

A certain vector in the xy-plane has an x-component of 4 m and a y-component of 10 m. It is then rotated in the xy-plane so that its x-component is doubled. Then, its new y-component is (approximately)

  • 20 m

  • 7.2 m

  • 5.0 m

  • 4.5 m

Solution

B.

7.2 m

Here, A= 4 i + 10 j

  A = 42 + 102

       = 16 + 100

  A = 116 m

Now, according to question,

   A = 8 i + n j

⇒ A = 82 + n2

    116 = 82 + n2

Squaring on both sides

   116 = 64 + n2

⇒ π2 = 116 - 64

     n = 7.2 m
