A rocket with a lift off mass 20000 kg is blasted upwards with a net initial acceleration of `5 ms^(-2)` Calculate the initial thrust (force) of the blast. |
Answer» Here , m = 20000 kg = `2.0 xx 10^(4)` kg initial acceleration = `5 ms^(-2)` Clearly, the thrust should be such that it overcome the force of gravity besides giving it an upward acceleration of `5 ms^(-2)` Thus the force should produce a net acceleration of 9.8 + 5.0 = 14.8 `ms^(-2)` . Since, thrust = force mass `xx` acceleration f = `2.0 xx 10^(4) xx 14.8 ` = ` 2.96 xx 10^(5)` N . |

Answer» Correct Answer - d Maximum force of friction `f_(max) = mu mg = 0.8 xx 4 xx 10 =32N` and applied force at `t =2 s is ` `F = kt^(2) = 2 (2)^(2) = 8 N` The body fails to move Hence the force of friction at `t =2s` is equal to applied force `=8N` . |

A small stone of mass 0.2 kg tied to a massless , inextensible string is rotated in a vertical circle of radius 2 m If the particle is just able to complete the vertical circle what is its speed at the highest point of the circular path ? How would the speed get affected if the mass of the stone is increased by 50% ? Take ` g = 10 m//s^(2) ` . |
Answer» Here , ` m = 0.2 kg , r = 2 m` When the particle is just able to complete the vertical circle , `upsilon_(L) = sqrt(5 g r ) ` and `upsilon_(H) = sqrt(g r ) = sqrt(10 xx 2 ) = 4 .47 ms^(-1) ` As `upsilon_(H)` does not depend upon mass , m of the stone , therefore , value of `upsilon_(H)` will not be affected by any change in mass of the stone . |

A man wants to slide down a block of mass `m` which is kept on a fixed inclined plane of inclination `30^(@)` as shown in the figure .Initially the block is not sliding . To just start sliding the man pushed the block down the inclined with a force `F`. Now , the block starts accelerating. To move it downwards with conatant speed the man starts pulling the block with same force. Surface are such that ratio of maximum static friction to kinetic friction is `2` Now, answer the following questions. What minimum force is required to move it up the incline with constant speed?A. `(2)/(3) mg`B. `(mg)/(2)`C. `(7 mg)/(6)`D. `(5 mg)/(6)` |
Answer» Correct Answer - D `F' = mg sin theta + mu_(k) mg cos theta` `= (mg)/(2) + ((2)/(3 sqrt(3))) mg ((sqrt3)/(2))` `= (5 mg)/(6)` |

Give the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on (a) a drop of rain falling down with a constant speed (b) a crok of mass 10 g floating on water (c) a kit skilfully held stationary in the sky (d) a car moving with a constant velocity of `30 kh//h` on a rough road (e) a high speed electron in space for from all gravitational obects and free of electric and magnetic fields. |
Answer» (a) As the rain drop I falling with a constant speed its acceleration a = 0 Hence net force F = ma = 0 (b) As the cork is floating on water its weight is being balanced by the upthrust (equal to weight of water displaced) Hence net force on the cork is zero (c) As the kite is held stationary net force on the kite is zero in accordance with Newton s first law (d) Force is being applied to overcome the force of friction But as velocity of the car is constant its acc a = 0 Hence net force on the car F = ma = 0 (e) As no fied (gravitational/electric/magnetic ) is action on the electron net force on it is zero. |

A cork of mass 10 g is floating on water. The net force acting on the cork isA. 10NB. `10^(-3)N`C. `10^(-2)N`D. zero |
Answer» Correct Answer - D When the cork is floating its weight is balanced by the upthrust. Therefore net force on the cork is zero. |

Detrmine the maximum acceleration of the train in which a box lying on the floor will remain stationary given that the coefficient of static friction between the box and the train s floor is 0.15 given `g = 10 m//s^(2)` . |
Answer» As acceleration (a) of box is due to static friction , therefore, `ma = f le mu_(s) R le mu_(s) mg` `a le mu_(s) g ` or ` a_(max) = mu_(s) g = 0. 15 xx 10 = 1.5 m// s^(2)` . |

A stone of mass l kg is lying on the floor of a train which is accelerating with `1ms^(-2)` The net force acting on the stone isA. zeroB. 1NC. 5ND. 10N |
Answer» Correct Answer - B Here, mass of the stone, m=1kg As the stone is lying on the floor of the train, its acceleration is same as that of train `therefore "Force acting on the stone," F=ma=(1kg)(1ms^(-2))=1N` NOTE: Here weight of the stone is balanced by the normal reaction of hte floor. |
