A body of mass 3 kg is under a constant force which causes a displacement s in metres in it, given by the relation `s=1/3t^2` , where t is in seconds. Work done by the force in 2 seconds is:-A. `5/19J`B. `3/8J`C. `8/3J`D. `19/5J`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
By using work energy theorem
`W=DeltaKE=(1)/(2) mv_(2)^(2)-(1)/(2) mv_(2)^(2)`
Now`s=(1)/(3)t^(2) impliesv=(2)/(3)t` `impliesv_(1)=0,v_(2)=(2)/(3)xx2=(4)/(3)ms^(-1)`
Therefore W`(1)/(2)xx3((4)/(3))^(2)-(1)/(2)xx3xx(0)^(2)=(8)/(3)J`

What mass of sucrose(C12H22O11)of molar mass 342g is required to make 2.5 kg of 0.25 molal aq. solution ?

Answer» 1 molal  aqueous solution of glucose contains 1kg water and 1 mole or 342 gm glucose.

So 0.25 molal solution will contain 342×0,25=85,5gm glucose in 1kg water.

Hence 1.0855kg 0.25 molal solution contains 0.0855 gm glucose.

So 2.5kg 0.25 molal aq solution will contain  0.0855×2.5/1.0855 kg glucose = 0.197kg glucose
