Solution :Given `V_(A)=2V_(B)`
Let `h_(1)"and"h_(2)` are the DISTANCES travelled by the two balls
`:. sqrt(2gh_(1))=2sqrt(u^(2)-2gh_(2))`
`2gh_(1)=4U^(2)-8gh_(32), 2gh_(1)+8gh_(2)=4u^(2), 2g[h_(1)+4h_(2)]=4u^(2)`
`h_(1)+4h_(2)=(2u^(2))/g` ...(1)
Again as `V_(A)=22V_(B),`from `v=u+at o+"gt" =2(u-"gt")`
`:."gt"=2u-2"gt" rArr 2u=3"gt"`

Rain is falling vertically with a speed of 20ms^(-1). A person is running in the rain with a velocity of 5ms^(-1) and a wind is also blowing with a speed of 15ms^(-1) (both from the west). The angle with the vertical at which the person should hold his umbrella so that he may not get drenched is:

Answer»

Solution :`vec(V_("Rain"))=vec(V_(R))=20(-hat(K))`
`vec(V_("MAN"))=vec(V_(M))=5hat(i)`
`vec(V_(wind))=vec(V_(W))=15hat(i)`
Resultant velocity of rain and wind =
`vec(V_(RM))=-20hat(K)+15hat(i)`
Now, Velocity of Rain relative to man=
`vec(V_(RM))-vec(V_(M))`
`=(-20hat(K)+15hat(i))-(5hat(i))`
`=-20hat(K)+10hat(i)`
`Tanalpha==(1)/(2)rArr alpha = Tan^(-1)(1)/(2)`

0.2 m^(3) of an ideal gas at a pressure of 2 Mpa and 600 K is expanded isothermally to 5 times the initial volume. It is then cooled to 300 K at constant volume and then compressed back polystro-pically to its initial state. Determine the work done and heat transfer during the cycle.

Answer»

Solution :Considering process 1-2 which is isothermal, i.e., `T_(1)=T_(2)=600K`
` P_(2)= (p_(1)V_(1))/V_(2)=(2xx10^(6)xx0.2)/(5xx0.2)=400xx10^(3) N//m^(2)=0.4 MPA`

Work done, `W_(i-2)=p_(1)V_(1) log_(e). V_(2)/V_(1)=2xx10^(6)xx0.2 log_(e) 5 = 643775 J= 643.775 kJ`
Considering process2-3 which is at constant volume,
i.e., `V_(2)=V_(3)=5xx0.2=1 m^(3)`
`P_(3)=P_(2)xxT_(3)/T_(2)=400xx10_(3)xx300/600 = 200xx10^(3) N//m^(2)=0.2 MPa`
`W_(2-3)` = 0 as volume remains constant.
For the polytropic process `3-1 =P_(3)V_(3)^(n)=p_(1)V_(1)^(n)`
`n=(log_(e).(p_(1))/(p_(3)))/(log_(e). V_(3)/V_(1))=(log_(e). 2/0.2)/(log_(e). 1/0.2)=2.3026/1.6094=1.433`
`W_(3-1)=(p_(3)V_(3)-p_(1)V_(1))/(n-1)=(0.2xx10^(6)xx1-2xx10^(6)xx0.2)/(1.433-1)`
`=-461894 J=-461.894 kJ`
Net work done, `W_(n)=W_(1-2)+W_(2-3)+W_(3-1)=643.774+0+(-461.894)=181.88 kJ`
:. Heat transfer during the complete cycle=181.88 kJ

Discuss the forces acting on the n particles in a system.

Answer»

Solution :The force acting on centre of mass,
`MvecA=vec(F_(1))+vec(F_(2))+...vec(F_(n))" here "vec(F_(1))` is not only one force but it is vector sum of forces acting only a PARTICLE.
Similarly for second, third, … .n. particle the vector sum of force actin are `vec(F_(2))+vec(F_(3))+...vec(F_(n))`
The forces acting on particles of a system are of two types :
(i) Internal forces due to mutual interactions among the particles and
(ii) External forces
In the FIGURE (a) a system made of particle-1 and particle-2 is shown.

External forces acting on particles 1 and 2 are `vec(F_(1))andvec(F_(2))` respectively and mutual forces interaction are denoted by `vec(F_(12)) and vec(F_(21))`.
Here, all the forces may be considered as acting on the centre of mass which is shown in figure (b).
According to Newton.s third law of motion the internal forces being equal and opposite their resultant is zero. So the force `vecF` acting on the centre of mass can be REGARDED as resultant external forces only.
`therefore MvecA=vec(F)_(ext)` where `vec(F)_(ext)-vecF` is the resultant force of only external forces.
This equation indicates that the system moves under the effect of resultant external force as if the whole mass of the system where concentrated as its centre of mass.

A cylindrical log of wood of height h and area of cross-section A floats in water. It is pressed and then released. Show that the log would execute SHM with a time period. T= 2pi sqrt((m)/(A p g)) where, m is mass of the body and p is density of the liquid. .

Answer»

Solution :Suppose, LOG is pressed DOWNWARD to y, the volume of liquid displaced by block will be yA.
The mass of displaced water `M= Vp`
`=yA p""[therefore y xx A= " volume V "]`
Buoyant force the upward by displaced water = weight of displaced water
`therefore F= -Mg""`(Weight and Buoyant force are opposite to each other)
`= -y A pg`
`therefore = -(A pg )y`
`therefore F propto -y`
where `Ap g =k` constant
HENCE, force acting on log is directly proportional to the displacement and opposite it. So motion of log is SHM
Now, period of SHM particle `T= 2PI sqrt((m)/(k))`
but `k= A p g`
`therefore T= 2pi sqrt((m)/(A p g))` is PROVED.

During rolling, the force of friction acts in the same direction as the direction of motion of the CM of the body.

Answer»

Solution :(a) False : Frictional force acts OPPOSITE to the direction of motion of centre of mass of a BODY. In the case of rolling, the direction of motion of the centre of mass is backward, hence, frictional force acts in the forward direction.
(b) True : Rolling can be considered as the ROTATION of a body about an axis passing through the POINT of contact of the body with the ground. Hence, its instantaneous speed is zero.
(C ) False : Since body is rolling, it has contripetat force and its instantaneous acceleration is non-zero. So it is false.
(d) True : When perfect rolling begins, the frictional force acting at the lowermost point becomes zero. Hence, work done against friction is also zero.
(e) True : The rolling of a body occurs when a frictional force acts between the body and the surface. The frictional force provides the torque necessary for rolling. In the absence of a frictional force, the body steps from the slope under the effect of own weight.

What is smelting ? Explain the process with example.

Answer»

Solution :The inability of objects to move on its own or change its STATE of motion is called inertia. Inertia means resistance to change its state. There are three types of inertia:
1. Inertia of REST: The inability of an object to change its state of rest is called inertia of rest. E.g. (i) When a stationary bus starts to move, the passengers experience a sudden backward push. (ii) A book lying on the table will remain at rest until it is moved by some external agencies.
2. Inertia of motion: The inability of an object to change its state of uniform speed (constant speed) on its own is called inertia of motion. E.g. (i) When the bus is in motion, and if the brake is applied suddenly, passengers move forward and hit against the front SEAT. (ii) An athlete running in a race will continue to run even after reaching the finishing point.
3. Inertia of direction: The inability of an object to change its direction of motion on its own is called inertia of direction. E.g. (i) When a stone attached to a string is in whirling motion, and if the string is cut suddenly, the stone will not continue to move in circular motion but moves tangential to the circle. (ii) When a bus moving along a straight line TAKES a turn to the right. The passengers are THROWN towards left.

An L-shaped tube is held in a stream. It has a small orifice at the upper end which is 0.106 m above the surface of water. If water in stream is flowing at 2.45 ms^(-1) and entering at the other end of the tube, then find the height of the jet of water coming out from the orifice.

Answer»

Solution :We know that `v_(1)^(2)-v_(2)^(2)=2/p(P_(2)-P_(1))=2/p(hrhog)=2hg`
`=2 xx 0.106 xx 9.8 =2.0776=2.08`
HENCE, `v_(2)^(2)=2.45^(2)-2.08^(2)`
`therefore v_(2)=1.98ms^(-1)`
We GET `0=(1.98)^(2)-2(1.98)H`
Height to which jet REACHES will be, `h=(1.98 xx 1.98)/(19.6)=0.20m`
h=20.0m

A cylinder rests on a horizontal rotating disc, as shown in the figure. Find at what angular velocity, omega, the cylinder falls off the disc, if the distance between the axes of the disc and cylinder is R, and the coefficient of friction mugtD//h where D is the diameter of the cylinder and It is its height.

Answer»


SOLUTION :The centripetal force that keeps the cylinder at rest on the disc is the frictioal force `f`. According to a non inertial observer on disc a pseudo force the cylinder reacts with an equal and oppostite force, `F`, which sometimes is reffered to as the centrifugal force.

`F=MOMEGA^(2)R`
where `M` is the mass of the cylinder.
The cylinder can fall off either by slipping away or by tilting about point `P`, depending of whichever takes place first. the critical agular speed `w_(1)` for slipping occurs when `F` equals `f:F=f`
`Momega_(1)^(2)R+mugM`
where `g` is the gravitational acceleration. HENCE `omega_(1)=sqrt((mug)/R)`
`F` TIES to rotaste the cylinder about `P`, but the weight `W` OPPOSES it. The rotatiion becomes pssible, when the torque caused by `W`.
`Fh/2=W D/2implies F=W D/h`
`Momega_(2)^(2)R=Mg D/h`
giving `omega_(2)=sqrt(D/(hR))`
Since we are given `mugtD/h`, we see that `omega_(1)gtomega_(2)` and the cylinder falls off by rolling over at `omega=omega_(2).`

Derive the expression of Kinetic energy in rotation.

Answer»

Solution :(i) Let us consider a rigid body rotating with angular VELOCITY `omega` about an axis as shown in Figure.
(ii) Every particle of the body will have the same angular velocity `omega` and different tangential velocities v based on its positions from the axis of rotation.

(iii) Let us choose a particle of mass `m_(i)` situated at distance `r_(i)` from the axis of rotation. If has a tangential velocity `v_(i)` given by the relation, `v_(i)=r_(i)omega`. The kinetic energy `KE_(i)` of the particle is,
`KE_(t)=1/2m_(i)v_(i)^(2)`
(iv) Writing the expression with the angular velocity,
`KE_(t)=1/2m_(i)(r_(i)omega)^(2)=1/2 (m_(i)r_(i)^(2))omega^(2)`
(v) For the kinetic energy of the whole body, which is made up of large number of such particles, the equation is written with summation as,
`KE=1/2(summ_(i)r_(i)^(2))`
(vi) where, the term `summ_(i)r_(i)^(2)` is the moment of inertia I of the whole body. `I=summ_(i)r_(i)^(2)`
(vii) Hence, the expression for KE of the rigid body in ROTATIONAL motion is,
`KE=1/2Iomega^(2)`
This is analogous to the expression for kinetic energy in TRANSLATIONAL motion.
`KE=1/2Mv^(2)`
(VIII) Relational between rotational kinetic energy and angular momentum
Let a rigid body of moment of inertia I rotate with angular velocity `omega`.
The angular momentum of rigid body is,
`L=Iomega`
(ix) The rotational kinetic energy of the rigid body is, `KE=1/2Iomega^(2)`
(x) By multiplying the numerator and DENOMINATOR of the above equation with I, we get a relation between Land KE as,
`KE=1/2(I^(2)omega^(2))/I=1/2((Iomega^(2)))/I`
`KE=L^(2)/(2I)`

`R_("earth")=10.20m` (Approximately 10 m)
If the same object is thrown in the Moon, the range will increase because in the Moon, the acceleration due to gravity is smaller than g on Earth,
`g_("moon")=(g)/(6)`
`R_("moon")=(u^(2)sin2theta)/(g_("moon"))=(v_(0)^(2)sin2theta)/(g//6)`
`:.R_("moon")=6R_("earth")`
`R_("moon")=6xx10.20=61.20m`(Approximately 60 m)
The range attained on the Moon is approximately SIX times that on Earth.
13350.
