A small block of mass `M` moves on a frictionless surface of an inclined plane, as shown in the figure. The angle of the incline suddenly changes from `60^(@)` to `30^(@)` at point `B`. The block is many at rest at `A`. Assume that collisions between the block id the incline are totally inelastic. If collision between the block and the incline is completely elastic, then the vertical (upward) component of the velocity of the blocks at point `B`, immediately after it strikes the second incline is A. `sqrt30` m/sB. `sqrt15` m/sC. 0D. `-sqrt(15)` m/s |
Answer» Correct Answer - C The velocity of the block coming down from the incline AB makes an angle `30^@` with the incline BC. If the block collides with the incline BC elastically, the angle of velocity of the block after collision with the incline shall be `30^@` Hence just after collision with incline BC the velocity of block shall be horizontal. So immediately after the block strikes the second incline, its vertical component of velocity will be zero. |

The bob A of a pendulum released from 30° to the vertical hits another bob B of the same mass at rest on a table as shown in Fig. 6.15. How high does the bob A rise after the collision? Neglect the size of the bobs and assume the collision to be elastic. |
Answer» Bob A will not rise at all In an elastic collision between two equal masses in which one is stationary, while the other is moving with some velocity, the stationary mass acquires the same velocity, while the moving mass immediately comes to rest after collision. In this case, a complete transfer of momentum takes place from the moving mass to the stationary mass. Hence, bob A of mass m, after colliding with bob B of equal mass, will come to rest, while bob B will move with the velocity of bob A at the instant of collision. |

Two identical ball bearings in contact with each other and resting on a frictionless table are hit head on by another ball bearing of the same mass moving initially with a speed v, figure,. If the collision is elastic, which of the following is a possible result after collisioin? |
Answer» Let m be the mass of each ball bearing. Before collision, total K.E. of the system is `=(1)/(2)mv^(2)+0=(1)/(2)mv^(2)` After collision. K.E. of the system is Case I, `E_(1)=(1)/(2)(2m)(v//2)^(2)=(1)/(4)mv^(2)` Case II, `E_(2)=(1)/(2)mv^(2)` Case III, `E_(3)=(1)/(2)(3m)(v//3)^(2)=(1)/(6)mv^(2)` We observe that K.E. is conserved only in case II. Hence case II is the only possibility. |

Two identical ball bearings in contact with each other and resting on a frictionless table are hit head on by another ball bearing of the same mass moving initially with a speed v, figure,. If the collision is elastic, which of the following is a possible result after collisioin? |
Answer» Let m be the mass of each ball bearing. Before collision, total K.E of the sytem `1/2mv^92)+0=1//2mv^(2)` After collision, K.E of the system is Case I, `E_(1)=1//2(2m)(v//2)^(2)= 1//4mv^(2)` Case II, `E_(2) = 1//2mv^(2)` Case III, `E_(3) = 1//2(3m)(v//3)^(2)=1//6mv^(2)` Thus, case II is the only possibility since K.E is conserved in this case. |

Two identical ball bearings in contact with each other and resting on a frictionless table are hit heat-on by another ball bearing of the same mass moving initially with a speed `V` as shown in figure. If the collision is elastic, which of the following (figure) is a possible result after collision ?A. B. C. D. |
Answer» (b) When two bodies of equal masses colides elastically their velocities are interchanges. When ball 1 collides with ball-2 then velocity of ball-1. `v_(1)` becomes zero and velocity of ball-2, `v_(2)` becomes v,i.e. similarity When ball 2 collides will ball 3 `{:(,v_(1)=0,Rightarrow v_(2)=v),(,v_(2)=0,v_(3)=v):}` |

Statement-1 : Kinetic energy is conserved in both, perfectly elastic and perfectly inelastic collisions. Statement-2 : Because linear momentum is conserved in both.A. Statement - 1 is ture , statement -2 is true, and statement-2 is correct explanation of statement -1.B. Statement-1 if ture, statement-2 is true, but statement -2 is not a correct explanation of statement-1.C. Statement-1 is true, but statement -2 is false.D. Statement-1 is false, but statement-2 is true. |
Answer» Correct Answer - D Kinetic energy is not conserved in a perfectly inelastic collision, as some of the total energy amy be converted into heat energy etc. Statement`-1` is false, but statement `-2` is true. |
