13: Correct Answer: C

Solution :

Due to constant velocity along horizontal and vertical downward force of gravity stone will hit the ground following
parabolic path.

14: Correct Answer: C

Solution :

Horizontal displacement of the bomb AB = Horizontal velocity × time available

AB=u×2h/g−−−√=600×5/18×2×1960/9.8−−−−−−−−√=3.33Km.

15: Correct Answer: A

Solution :

For both cases t=2h/g−−−√=constant. Because vertical downward component of velocity will be zero for both the
particles.

16: Correct Answer: A

Solution :

The horizontal distance covered by bomb,

BC=vH×2h/g−−−√=1502×80/10−−−−−−√=660m

\ The distance of target from dropping point of bomb,

AC=AB2+BC2−−−−−−−−−−√=(80)2+(600)2−−−−−−−−−−−√=605.3m

17: Correct Answer: C

18: Answer: b

Explanation: Total time taken by the body to travel from A to B and then from B to A,

t1+t2 = AB/40 + AB/60 = AB/24 s

Total distance covered = AB + BA = 2AB

Average speed = 2AB/(t1+t2 ) = 48m/s.

19: Answer: a

Explanation: vav = (2v1 v2)/(v1+v2 )

40 = (2×30×v2)/(30+v2 )

v2 = 60km/h.

Explanation: Minimum length of the driveway is given by s = ut + 1/2 at2 = 0 + 1/2 × 3 × 35 × 35 =

1837.5 m.

21: Answer: c

Explanation: Distance covered in 0.20s = 15 × 0.20 = 3 m

For motion with deceleration:

U = 15m/s v = 0 a = -6 m/s2

As v2 – u2 = 2as

s = 18.75 m

Total distance travelled = 3.0 + 18.75 = 21.75 m.

22: Answer: c

Explanation: By conservation of momentum, MV = mv

M = mv/V = (0.05×30)/1 = 1.5kg.

23: Correct Answer: C

Solution :

In the given condition, the particle undergoes uniform circular motion and for uniform circular motion the velocity
and acceleration vector changes continuously but kinetic energy is constant for every point.

24: Correct Answer: A

Solution :

r⃗ =20i^+10j^ ∴ r=202+102−−−−−−−−√=22.5m

25: Correct Answer: A

Solution :

An aeroplane flies 400 m north and 300 m south so the net displacement is 100 m towards north.
Then it flies 1200 m upward so r=(100)2+(1200)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−√
=1204m−~1200m The option should be 1204 m, because this value mislead one into thinking that net displacement is in
upward direction only.

26: Correct Answer: C

Solution :

u=12 m/s, g=9.8 m/sec2, t=10 sec Displacement =ut+1/2gt2

=1/2×10+12×9.8×100=610m

27: Correct Answer: C

28: Correct Answer: C

Solution :

Work done = Gain in potential energy Area under curve = mgh Þ 1/2×11×100=5×10×h
Þ h=11m

29: Correct Answer: D

Solution :

Initial K.E. of the body = 1/2mv^2=1/2×25×4=50J Work done against resistive force = Area between F-x
graph = 1/2×4×20=40J Final K.E. = Initial K.E. ? Work done against resistive force =50−40=10J

30: Correct Answer: A

Solution :

Work done = Area under curve and displacement axis = Area of trapezium = 1/2×(sum of
two parallel lines) × distance between them = 1/2(10+4)×(2.5−0.5) = 1/214×2= 14 J As the area
actually is not trapezium so work done will be more than 14 J i.e. approximately 16 J

31: Correct Answer: A

Solution :

As particle is projected with some velocity therefore its initial kinetic energy will not be zero. As it
moves downward under gravity then its velocity increases with time K.E. µ v2 µ t2 (Asυ∝t) So the graph
between kinetic energy and time will be parabolic in nature.

32: Correct Answer: C

Solution :

As slope of problem graph is positive and constant upto certain distance and then it becomes zero. So from
F=−dU/dx, up to distance a, F = constant (negative) and becomes zero suddenly

33: Correct Answer: A

Solution :

Potential energy increases and kinetic energy decreases when the height of the particle increases it is
clear from the graph.

34: Correct Answer: A

Solution :

Work done = area under curve and displacement axis =1×10−1×10+1×10=10 J

35: Correct Answer: A

Solution :
