What name is given to the product of mass and velocity of a body?

Answer»

The product of mass and velocity of a body is known as momentum.

40.

A rubber ball of mass 0.1 Kg is dropped on the ground from a height of 2.5 m and it rises to a height of 0.4m. Assuming the time of contact with the ground to be 0.01 s, calculate the force exerted by the ground on the wall, g = 10ms-2.

Answer»

Mass of the ball m = 0.1 kg

Time in contact with the ground, t = 0.01s

1. When the ball is dropped on ground,

u = 0, s = 2.5m, g = 10ms-2

From the equation, v2 = u2 + 2gs

v= 0 + 2 × 10 × 2.5

v = 7.07ms-1 , downwards.

2. When the ball rises up from the ground,

v = 0, s = 0.4m, g = 10ms-2

From the equation v2 = u2 + 2gs

0 = u+ 2(- 10)0.4

u= 8

u =2.83ms-1 , upwards.

Assuming the upward velocity +ve & downward velocity -ve, change of velocity 

= 2.83 – (- 7.07)

i.e v – u = 9.9ms-1

∴ Force exerted by the ground on the ball is,

F = m \(\frac {v-u}{t}\) = 0.1 \(\frac {9.9}{0.01}\) = 99 N.

41.

Assertion (A) : When a ball throw on the ground, it come to rest. Reason (R) : Every object will remain rest when no net force acts on it. A) A and R are true, R is the correct explanation of A. B) A and R are true, R is not the correct explanation of A. C) A is true and R is false. D) A is false and R is true.

Answer»

B) A and R are true, R is not the correct explanation of A.

42.

Which of the following is wrong ? a) Static inertia : The body at rest always tries to stay at the same rest, until some force act on it. b) Dynamic inertia : The body which is in motion always tries to come to ? rest until some force act on it. ? A) a B) b C) a and b D) None

Answer»

Correct option is B) b

43.
