SECTION III
Reasoning Type
This section contains 4 reasoning type questions. Each question has 4 choices (A), (B), (C) and (D),
out of which ONLY ONE is correct.

Code
(A) STATEMENT1 is True, STATEMENT2 is True; STATEMENT2 is a correct explanation for
STATEMENT1
(B) STATEMENT1 is True, STATEMENT2 is True; STATEMENT2 is NOT a correct explanation for
STATEMENT1
(C) STATEMENT1 is True, STATEMENT2 is False
(D) STATEMENT1 is False, STATEMENT2 is True
34. STATEMENT 1
The maximum range along the inclined plane, when through downward is greater than that
when thrown upward along the same inclined plane with constant velocity.
because
STATEMENT 2
The maximum range along inclined plane is independent of angle of inclination.
35. STATEMENT 1
A particle is projected at an angle ( < 90) to horizontal, with a velocity u. When particle
strikes the ground its speed is again u.
because
STATEMENT 2
Velocity along horizontal direction remains same but velocity along vertical direction is
changed. When particle strikes the ground then magnitude of final vertical velocity is equal to
magnitude of initial vertical velocity.
36. STATEMENT 1
A block of mass m is placed on a smooth inclined plane of inclination with the horizontal.
The force exerted by the plane on the block has a magnitude mg cos .
because
STATEMENT 2
Normal reaction always acts perpendicular to the contact surface.
37. STATEMENT 1
In high jump, it hurts less when an athlete lands on a heap of sand.
because
STATEMENT 2
Because of greater distance and hence greater time over which the motion of an athlete is
stopped, the athlete experience less force when lands on heap of sand.




SECTION IV
Linked Comprehension Type
This section contains 3 paragraphs. Based upon each paragraph, 3 multiple choice questions have
to be answered. Each question has 4 choices (A), (B), (C) and (D), out of which ONLY ONE is
correct.
Paragraph for Questions Nos. 38 to 40
When a particle is projected at some angle with the horizontal, the path of the particle is parabolic in
nature. In the process the horizontal velocity remains constant but the magnitude of vertical velocity
changes. At any instant during flight the acceleration of particle remains g in vertically downward
direction. During flight at any point the path of particle can be considered as a part of circle and
radius of that circle is called the radius of curvature of the path of particle.
Consider that a particle is projected with velocity u = 10 m/s at an angle = 60 with the horizontal

Paragraph for Questions Nos. 44 to 46
An object at rest remains at rest and an object in motion will continue its motion with a constant
velocity unless it experiences a net external force. But the magnitude of force given by Newtons 2
nd

law and 3
rd
law represents or gives the information about the nature of force. The second law gave a
specific way of determining how the velocity changes under different influences called forces. There
are so many forces calculated by Newtons law such as Normal force, Tension, Viscous, Weight but
Newtons laws are not applicable, when velocity of an object comparable to the velocity of light and
microscopic particle. If the system contains large number of particles, then if we apply the Newtons
laws, concept of centre of mass is included.
