The displacement of particle is zero at t=0 and at t=t it is x. It starts moving in the x direction with velocity, which varies as v=kx, where k is constant. The velocity-

Explanation

v=kx   dxdt=kx

   dxx=kdt x+1/21/2=kt+c

Given that, at t=0, x=0      ... c=0

Now, 2x1/2=kt  x=(1/2)kt,

 x=k2t24

Now, v=k(1/2 kt)=k2t/2

Thus velocity varies with time. Hence correct answer is (1)

The acceleration of a particle is given as a=3x2. At t=0, v=0, x=0, the velocity at t =2 sec will be-

Explanation

a=3x2 v dvdx=3x2

 vdv=3x2 dx                v22=3x33+c

At t=0, v=0, x=0;

 c=0  Now, v22=x3

    v2=2x3v=2 x3/2                  ...(1)

 dxdt=2 x3/2         dx=2 x3/2 dt        dxx3/2=2 dt

Integrating both sides, we get -2x=2t+c'

At t=0, x=0, v=0       ... c'=0

Now -2x=2t    4=2xt2                     x=2t2         ...(2)

From (1) and (2) v=22t23/2

At t=2 s, v=1/2 m/sec.

Hence correct answer is (2).

The acceleration of a particle is given by a=3t and at t=0, v=0, x=0. The velocity and displacement at t = 2 sec will be-

Explanation

a=3t  dvdt=3t  dv=3tdtv=3t22+c

Substituting the initial conditions, at t=0, v=0 and x=0

  c=0 Hence, v=3t22

Velocity at t= 2 sec is 3×222=6 m/s

Also, dxdt=3t23  dx=32t2dtx=32t33+c'

at t=0, x=0 ... c'=0, ...x=t32,

Now displacement at t= 2 sec is 232=4 m

Hence correct answer is (1)

A long spring is stretched by 2 cm, its potential energy is U. If the spring is streched by 10 cm, find the potential energy stored in it.   [This question is only for Dropper and XII batch]

Explanation

Elastic potential energy of a spring U=12kx2               Ux2

So U2U1=x2x12  U2U=10 cm2 cm2    U2 = 25 U

A spring of spring constant 5×103 N/m is stretched initially by 5 cm from the unstretched position. Find the work required to stretch it further by another 5 cm is   [This question is only for Dropper and XII batch]

Explanation

Work done to stretch the spring from x1 to x2

W= 12kx22-x12 =125×103[10×10-22 -5×10-22] = 12×5×103×75×10-4= 18.75 N.m.

An automobile of mass m accelerates, starting from rest, while the engine supplies constant power P, its position and velocity changes w.r.t time as-    [This question is only for Dropper and XII batch]

Explanation

Velocity

As Fv= P= constant

i.e.    mdvdtv=P
                                          As F= mdvdt
or      vdv= Pmdt

By integrating both sides we get v22=Pmt+C1

As initially the body is at rest i.e. v= 0 at t= 0, so C1= 0           v=2Ptm1/2

Position

From the above expression  v=2Ptm1/2

or dsdt=2Ptm1/2                 As v= dsdt

i.e.   ds= 2Ptm1/2dt

By integrating both sides we get s=2Pm1/2.23t3/2+C2

Now as at t= 0, s= 0, so C2=0                       s=8P9m1/2t3/2

A constant force F is applied on a body. The power (P) generated is related to the time elapsed (t) as

Explanation

F=mdvdt    F dt= mdv    v= Fmt

Now P= F×v= F×Fmt =F2tm

If force and mass are constants then P  t

A rod of length L is placed along the x-axis between x= 0 and x= L. The linear density (mass/length)λ of the rod varies with the distance x from the origin as λ= Rx. Here, R is a positive constant. Find the position of centre of mass of this rod.

The gravitational field due to a mass distribution is given by I= kx2i^, where k is a constant. Assuming the potential to be zero at infinity, find the potential at a point x = a. [This question is only for Dropper and XII batch]

Explanation

We know, 

dV=-I.dr         dV=-kx2dx         dV=-k dxx2            V=kx+C

When x = , V=0  C=0

  V=kx        At x = a, V= ka

The upper edge of a gate in a dam runs along water surface. The gate is 2 m high and 3 m wide and is hinged along a horizontal line through its center. Calculate the torque about hinge. [This question is only for Dropper and XII batch]

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

The torque acting on the gate is given by the product of the force acting on it and the perpendicular distance between the line of action of the force and the hinge. The force acting on the gate is the weight of the gate, which is equal to its mass times the acceleration due to gravity.
