Question : 1
It is difficult to cut things with a blunt knife because
a) a blunt knife decreases the pressure for a given force
b) a sharp edge decreases the pressure exerted by knife for a given force
c) the pressure exerted by knife for a given force increases with increase in bluntness
d) a blunt knife decreases the area of intersection
Answer »Answer: (a)
Question : 2
A system of masses connected by a string, passing over pulleys A and B as shown in the figure. The pulleys are massless. Match the columns : (Take g = 10 m/$s^2$)
Column I | Column II |
A. Acceleration of mass 4 kg, $a_1$ | 1. 2 m/$s^2$ |
B. Acceleration of mass 6 kg, $a^2$ | 2. 4 m/$s^2$ |
C. Acceleration of mass 15 kg, $a^3$ | 3. 8 m/$s^2$ |
4. zero |
a) A – 2 ; B – 3 ; C – 1
b) A – 2 ; B – 4 ; C – 1
c) A – 1 ; B – 2 ; C – 3
d) A – 4 ; B – 3 ; C – 2
Answer »Answer: (b)
A → (2) ; B → (4) ; C → (1)
The acceleration of mass 15 kg
a3 = $[\text"15 - (6 + 4)"/\text"15 + 6 + 4"]$g = 2 m/s2
The acceleration of masses 4 kg and 6 kg with respect to pulley B is,
a = ${(6 – 4)}/{(6 + 4)}$ g = 2 m/s2.
Question : 3
A jet plane moves up in air because
a) the flow of air around the wings causes an upward force, which compensates for the force of gravity
b) the thrust of the jet compensates for the force of gravity
c) the gravity does not act on bodies moving with high speeds
d) the weight of air whose volume is equal to the volume of the plane is more than the weight of the plane
Answer »Answer: (b)
When a jet plane flies, it ejects gases in a backward direction at a very high velocity.
From Newton’s third law, these gases provide the momentum for the jet plane in the forward direction plus compensate for the force of gravity.
Question : 4
A man getting down a running bus, falls forward because-
a) he leans forward as a matter of habit
b) due to inertia of motion upper part of body continues to be in motion in forward direction while feet come to rest as soon as they touch the road
c) due to inertia of rest, road is left behind and man reaches forward
d) of the combined effect of all the three factors stated in (a), (b) and (c)
Answer »Answer: (a)
Question : 5
A particle is moving in a circular path of radius r. The displacement after half a circle would be
a) 2 r
b) pr
c) zero
d) 2pr
Answer »Answer: (a)
Question : 6
Newton’s laws of motion do not hold good for objects
a) moving with high velocity
b) moving slowly
c) at rest
d) moving with velocity comparable to velocity of light
Answer »Answer: (d)
