Question : 1
If an object having mass of 1 kg is subjected to a force of 1 N it moves with
a) an acceleration of 10 m/s2
b) a speed of 1 km/s
c) a speed of 1 m/s
d) an acceleration of 1 m/s2
Answer »Answer: (d)
Question : 2
Two bodies A and B have masses M and m respectively where M > m and they are at a distance d apart. Equal force is applied to them so that they approach each other. The position where they hit each other is
a) at equal distance from A and B
b) nearer to A
c) nearer to B
d) cannot be determined
Answer »Answer: (b)
As net external force on the system is zero therefore position of their centre of mass remains unaffected i.e. they will hit each other at the point of centre of mass. The centre of mass of the system lies nearer to A because MA > MB .
Question : 3
Four cars A, B, C and D are moving on a levelled road. Their distance versus time graphs are shown in figure. Choose the correct statement.

a) Car C is faster than car D.
b) Car B is the slowest.
c) Car A is faster than car D
d) Car C is the lowest.
Answer »Answer: (b,c)
Question : 4
Consider the following statements:
A 4-wheel vehicle moving in a sharp circular path at high speed will :
- overturn about its outer wheels
- overturn about its inner wheels
- skid outwards
- skid inwards
a) 2 and 3
b) 1 and 3
c) 2 and 4
d) 1 and 4
Answer »Answer: (b)
In the case of an object moving along a circular path two types of forces centripetal and centrifugal act upon it.
As they have opposite impacts thus, the object remains in balance. When centrifugal force gets disturbed then the object will leave the balance and skid in an outward direction.
Question : 5
Frictional force
a) may act in the direction of motion
b) always acts in the direction of motion
c) always acts opposite to the direction of motion
d) always acts perpendicular to the direction of motion
Answer »Answer: (a)
Friction always apposes relative motion between surfaces in contact and hence can act in any direction to oppose the relative motion.
Question : 6
For inelastic collision between two spherical rigid bodies
a) the linear momentum is not conserved
b) the total mechanical energy is not conserved
c) the total kinetic energy is conserved
d) the linear momentum is conserved
Answer »Answer: (d)
For inelastic collision between two spherical rigid bodies K.E. is not conserved as it is converted into other forms like heat, light sound etc. but total linear momentum is conserved.
