A ball of mass m falls vertically to the ground from a height h1 and rebound to a height h2. The change in momentum of the ball on striking the ground is 

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

When ball falls vertically downward from height h1 its velocity v1=2gh1

and its velocity after collision v2=2gh2

Change in momentum

ΔP=m(v2v1)=m(2gh1+2gh2)

(because v1 and v2 are opposite in direction)

One end of the string of length l is connected to a particle of mass m and the other end is connected to a small peg on a smooth horizontal table. If the particle moves in circle with speed v, the net force on the particle (directed towards centre) will be (T represents the tension in the string)

A spring of force constant k is cut into lengths of ratio 1:2:3. They are connected in series and the new force constant is k'. If they are connected in parallel and force constant is k'', then k':k'' is

Explanation

When the spring is cut into pieces, they will have the new force constant .The spring is divided into 1:2:3 ratio.Let the l1=x, then l2=2x and l3=3xx+2x+3x=lx=l6 Since spring constant is inversely proportional to length, new constants are:For  springs,  k1l1= k2l2= k3l3= knlnk1 =kll6 = 6kk2 =kll3 = 3kk3 =kll2 = 2k

When the pieces are connected in series, the resultant force constant 

   1v'=1k1+1k2+1k31v'=16k+12k+13kv'=k

In parallel,the net force constant 

K''=6k+3k+2k=11k

The requried ratioKK''=k11k=1:11

 

 

A car is negotiating a curved road of radius R. The road is banked at angle θ. The coefficient of friction between the tyres of the car and the road is μs. The maximum safe velocity on this road is

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

For a vehicle on a banked road, the maximum safe velocity is given by √(gR((μs + tanθ)/(1 - μs tanθ))), where g is the acceleration due to gravity, R is the radius of curvature, μs is the coefficient of static friction, and θ is the angle of banking. This expression takes into account the centripetal force and the frictional force acting on the vehicle.

What is the minimum velocity with which a body of mass m must enter a vertical loop of radius R so that it can complete the loop?

A particle of mass 10g moves along a circle of radius 6.4 cm with a constant tangential acceleration. What is the magnitude of this acceleration, if the kinetic energy of the particle becomes equal to 8x10-4 J by the end of the second revolution after the beginning of the motion?

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

(d) Given, mass of particle m=0.01 kg.
Radius of circle along which particle is moving, r=6.4cm.

 ∴ Kinetic energy of particle, K.E=8x10-4 J

=>  12mv2=8x10-4 J

=> v2=16×10-40.01=16x10-2 …(i)

As it is given that K.E of particle is equal to 8x10-4 J by the end of second revolution after the beginning of motion of particle. It means, it’s initial velocity (u) is 0 m/s at this moment.

∴ By Newton’s 3rd equation of motion,

v2= u2+2ats

v2= 2as or v2= 2a (4πr)
(∴ particle covers 2 revolutions)

a= v2/8πr = 16x10-2/8x3.14x6.4x10-2
(∴ from equation (i), v2=16x10-2)

at=0.1m/s2




A stone is dropped from a height h.

It hits the ground with a certain momentum

p. If the same stone is dropped from a height

100% more than the previous height, the

momentum when it hits the ground will

change by

Explanation

Velocity v= 2gh

and momentum p=mv

From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we have 

                 ph

Hence          P2P1=h2h1so,  P2P1=2hh=2         P2=1.414 p1

% change =P2-P1P1×100=41%

 

A car of mass m is moving on a level circular

track of radius R. If μs represent the static friction 

between the road and tyres of the car, the maximum

speed of the car in circular motion is given by

Explanation

In this condition, centripetal force is equal to 

static frictional force road and tyres,

so
