Imagine you have been asked to push a heavy box across the floor. At first, you needto push very hard, but once the box has started to move, you can push less harderand yet keep it moving. Why is this?c.

Answer»

In the starting the friction force is greatest. When we have pushed the box little, the friction force is slowing being overcome.

and so, the force we are applying on the object, is stronger than the friction force applied by the object... right?

39) What is ray optics?

Answer»

Ray optics (or geometrical optics), describes light traversal (propagation in terms of physics) in terms of "rays". The "ray" in geometric optics is an abstraction, or "instrument", which can be used to approximately model how light will travel. Light rays are defined to propagate in a straight path as they travel in a homogeneous medium (such as air, ).As light travels through space, it oscillates in amplitude (like any other wave). In this image, each maximum amplitude crest is marked with a plane to illustrate the wavefront. The ray is the arrow perpendicular to these surfaces.

4. A 20 gram bullet moving at 300 m/s stops afterpenetrating 3 cm of bone. Calculate the averageforce exerted by the bullet. [Ans. – 3 x 104 N]

Answer»

There are two methods to solve this.

METHOD 1 : Using only Motion Equations.

m = 0.02 kgu = 300 m/sv = 0d = 0.03 m(Note everything is in SI system of units)

a = (v×v - u×u)/2s = (0-900)/0.06 = -15000 m/s^2- sign indicates that acceleration is opposite to motion. This type of acceleration is also called retardation or deceleration.

So, Force = ma = 0.02 × 15000 = 300 newton (Ans)

METHOD 2 : Using Conservation of Energy.

So, we have Work done = Change in Kinetic EnergyHence, Fd = mv×v/2F = mv×v/(2d) = 0.02 × 30 × 30 / 0.06 = 300 newton (Ans)

work done, fd=mvxv/2d==0.0××30×30/0.06=300 newton

300 Newton is the answer

Physical processes are sometimes described visually by lines. Ouly the following can crossA Streamlines in fuid flowB. Lines of forces m electrostaticsC. Rays n geometrical opticsD Lines of force m magnetism.

Answer»

Only the rays in geometrical optics can cross.

The lines of forces in electrostatics represent the electric field and if they cross it would mean that there are two values of electric field at a point which is not possible.

In magnetism, the lines represent the direction of magnetic force as well as tangent to streamlines in fluid represent the direction of flow. Hence, they cannot intersect.

8. Water is flowing steadily through a horizontal pipeof non-uniform cross-section. At a point, wherethe cross-sectional area of the pipe is 0.02 m2,the pressure of water is 4.0 x 104 N m (or Pa)and its velocity of flow is 2.0 m s. What is theectional area is0.01 m2? The density of water is 103 kg m 3

Answer»

Here we shall first use the continuity equation

av = a'v'

where

a and a' are cross-sectional areas at points 1 and 2 respectively and

v and v' are the velocities of fluid at points 1 and 2 respectively

so,

a =0.02 m^2

v =2 m/s

a' =0.01 m^2

now, as

v' = av / a'

so,

v' = 0.02x2 / 0.01

thus,

v' = 4 m/s

..

now, the Bernoulli's equation is given as (here z = z' - 0)

P/ρ + (1/2)v^2= P'/ρ + (1/2)v'^2

or

P/ρ + (1/2)v^2- (1/2)v'^2= P'/ρ

or

P' = P + (ρ/2)[v^2- v'^2]

now, P = 4 x 10^4N/mm^2= 4 x 10^10N/m^2

and ρ = 1000 kg/m^3

so,

P' = 4 x 10^10+ (1000/2)[2^2- 4^2] ~ 4 x 10^10N/m^2

the answer is close to the initial value

18. Name the non-optical aid that makes use of raised dots on a paper. Whodeveloped this resource for visually challenged persons? Write a short noteon it.

Answer»

Optical aids for low vision can range from reading glasses, magnifiers to small telescopes depending on the severity of visual impairment. Such devices differ from the reading glasses or the magnifying glasses that we are familiar with. Low vision devices are never all purpose devices and are built with a very specific use in mind. We should think of the low vision optical aids as specific where one device may be used for reading a mail, another for watching movies, and yet another for seeing menus at a restaurant.Braille is a system that uses combinations of raised dots to spell letters and numbers. It’s used by people who are blind or partially sighted to help them read and write.Louis Braille developed this system

Define linear and angular velocity. Derive a relation between them.

Answer»

Ans :- linear velocity refers to an object's speed as it moves along a straight line.

Angular velocity is the rate of velocity at which an object or a particle is rotating around a center or a specific point in a given time period. It is also known as rotational velocity. Angular velocity is measured in angle per unit time or radians per second (rad/s).

Define angular velocity(o). Derive v,a).

Answer»

Angular velocity can be considered to be a vector quantity, with direction along the axis of rotation in theright-hand rulesense.

For an object rotating about an axis, every point on the object has the same angular velocity. The tangential velocity of any point is proportional to its distance from the axis of rotation. Angular velocity has the units rad/s.

Derivation :

You're moving in a circle of radius r, so the distance you travel in one full trip round the circle is 2.pi.r and you're doing it in one time period, T

speed, v = distance/time = 2.pi.r/T

w = angular speed, and you complete 2 pi radians in time T, so w = 2pi/T

so v=rw
