The following question based on mechanics (mass, force, acceleration, work, energy, momentum, velocity) topic of general science mcq

Questions : Consider the following statements :
  1. A person standing for a long time with a suitcase on his head does no work in terms of physics.
  2. There cannot be any displacement of an object in the absence of any force acting on it.
  3. The law of conservation of energy is valid in all situations and for all kinds of transformations.
Which of these statements is/are correct ?

(a) 2 and 3

(b) 1 and 2

(c) 1 and 3

(d) 1, 2 and 3

The correct answers to the above question in:

Answer: (c)

Yes. If a particle is moving and there is no force on it, then it will continue to move with constant velocity.

Thus it will have displacement.

a) zero

b) along the radius

Answer: (b)

Question : 4

Which of the following are examples of uniform velocity?

a) Motion of car on crowded road

b) Motion of planet around sun

c) Motion of moon around earth

d) Motion of a moving fan

Answer: (c)

Uniform velocity:

Definition: The condition in which a body covers an equal level of distances in unequal intervals of time is called the uniform velocity. 

Examples of uniform velocity

When a particle moves with a uniform velocity, the slope of a displacement-time graph (Fig) is constant at all points.

It is a stable velocity, i.e., the velocity that does not change with time in scale or direction in space. This means that a body has this type of velocity if it travels at a constant speed along an instant line (i.e., in an exacting direction). There has been no change in either speed or direction.

The following are some examples:

  • The Moon’s orbit around the Earth
  • The movement of a watch’s hands
  • Earth’s Rotation Earth’s Revolution
  • Raindrops fall on the Earth’s surface. This is the velocity with which a body moves once it is started on a frictionless surface.
  • All circular motion is an example: the movement of a fan and our clock hand.

Question : 5

If velocity of a body is twice of previous velocity, then kinetic energy will become

a) 4 times

b) 1/2 times

c) 2 times

d) 1 times

Answer: (a)

Question : 6

A man is standing on a sensitive balance. If he inhales deeply, the reading of the balance

a) Remains unaffected

b) Decreases

c) Increases

d) May increase or decrease depending on the atmospheric pressure

Answer: (c)
