Look at the graphs (a) to (d) (Fig. 3.20) carefully and state, with reasons, which of these cannot possibly represent onedimensional motion of a particle. |
Answer» SOLUTION : Here, none of the graphs dosen.t represent the direction of motion in one DIMENSION. (a) Two positions are there at same time. Hence, it is not for motion in one dimension. (b) There are positive and negative values of velocity for same time. It is not possible for motion in one dimension. (c) Negative value of speed is not possible because it is ALWAYS positive. Hence it is not for motion in one dimension. (d) Path length cannot decrease with RESPECT to time during motion. Hence, it is also not for motion in one dimension. Note that the DIRECTIONS of arrows in graph are meaningless. |

If n _(1), n _(2), and n _(3)are the fundamental frequencies of three segments into which a string is divided, then the original fundamental frequency n of the string is given by … |
|
Answer» `(1)/(n) = (1)/( n _(1)) + (1)/( n _(2)) + (1)/(n _(3))` (1) For FIRST PART of length `L_(1) , n _(1) = (1)/(2L_(1)) sqrt((T)/(mu))` (2) For second part of length `l _(2), n _(2) = (1)/(2L _(2)) sqrt ((T)/( mu))` (3) For the part of length `L_(3), n_(3) = (1)/(2L _(3)) sqrt ((T)/(mu))` But `L = L _(1) + L _(2) + L _(3)` `therefore (1)/(2N ) sqrt ((T)/( mu)) = (1)/( 2n _(1)) sqrt ((T)/( mu ))+ (1)/( 2n _(2)) sqrt ((T)/( mu )) + (1)/( 2n _(3)) sqrt ((T)/( mu ))` `therefore (1)/(n) = (1)/( n _(1) )+ (1)/(n _(2)) + (1)/( n _(3))` |

In a spring gun having spring constant 100N/m, a small ball of mass 0.1kg is put in its barrel by compressing the spring through 0.05m as shown in Figure. The ball leaves the gun horizontally at a height of 2m above the ground. Find (a) The velocity of the ball when the spring is released. (b) Where should a box be placed on the ground so that the ball falls in it. (g= 10 m//s^(2)) |
|
Answer» Solution :(a) When the spring is released its elastic potential energy `(1//2) kx^(2)` is converted into kinetic energy `(1//2) mv^(2)` of the ball, so, by conservation of MECHANICAL energy `(1)/(2) mv^(2)= (1)/(2) kx^(2) rArr V= x SQRT((k)/(m))` So `v= 0.05 sqrt((100)/(0.1)) m//s = sqrt((5)/(2)) m//s` (b) As initial vertical component of velocity of ball is zero, time taken by the ball to reach the ground. `t= sqrt((2h)/(g))= sqrt((2 xx 2)/(10))= sqrt((2)/(5)) s`, So the horizontal distance TRAVELLED by the ball in this time `d= vt = sqrt((5)/(2)) xx sqrt((2)/(5))= 1m` |

|
Answer» Solution :Mass of proton `m = 1.67 xx 10^(-27)` kg , INITIAL velocity of proton u = 0 FINAL velocity of proton `v = 3 xx 10^(7) ms^(-1)` WORK done by the force on the proton = Kinetic energy gained `therefore` Work done `W = (1)/(2) mv^(2) = (1)/(2) xx 1.67 xx 10^(-27) xx (3 xx 10^(7))^(2) therefore W = 7.515 xx 10^(-13)` J |

The mechanical energy (E) of a body is the sum of kinetic energy (K) and potential energy (V) of the body i.e., E = K + V. Whereas K is always positive, V can be positive or negative. For a system to axis, K = (E - V) ge 0 Negative value of E indicates a bound state. For example, all planets revolving around the sum have nagative mechanical energy. Read the above passage and answer the following questions : (i) When mechanical energy E = 0, does it mean K = 0 and V = 0 ? (ii) What is the impulication of yjis study in day to day life ? |
|
Answer» Solution :(a) No, not always. This is because, `K` is always positive, so when `V` is equally NEGATIVE, `E = (K + V)` becomes ZERO. (ii) All planet REVOLVING around the sun have negative mechanical energy. It indicates that the planets are bound to revolve around the sun. They are not free to leave their ORBIT. In day to day life, we find that a person is not free to leave the country, if he OWES some amount to income tax (sales tax, etc.) or he has some criminal court cases pending against him. |

State the principle of homogeneity. Test the dimensional homogeneity of equations - (i) s = ut + 1/2 at^(2) (ii) S_(n) = u + a/2 (2n - 1) |
|
Answer» Solution :(i) DIMENSION of L.H.S [s] = `[M^(0)L^(1)T^(0)]` Dimension of R.H.S. = `[ut] + [at^(2)]` = `[LT^(-1).T] + [M^(0)L^(1)T^(-2).T] = [M^(0)L^(1)T^(0)]` as Dimension of L.H.S = Dimension of R.H.S `:.` The equation is DIMENSIONALLY homogeneous. (ii) `S_(n) =` Distance TRAVELLED in `n^(th)` sec that is `(S_(n) - S_(n-1))` `:.S_(n) = U xx 1 + a/2 [2N - 1]` `[LT^(-1)] = [LT^(-1)] + [LT^(-2)][T]` `[LT^(-1)] = [LT^(-2)]` L.H.S. = R.H.S. Hence this is dimensionally correct. |
