Question 11.

Mercury thermometer can be used to measure temperature upto :


  1.    `50^circ C`
  2.    `150^circ C`
  3.    `250^circ C`
  4.    `357^circ C`
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> `357^circ C`

Mercury thermometer can be used to measure temperature from  - `30^circ C` to `357^circC`.



Question 12.

If a ball is dropped from rest . It because from the floor respectively . The coefficient of restitution is 0.5 and the speed just before the first  bounce is 5 m/sec. The total time taken by the ball to come to rest is :


  1.    2 sec
  2.    1 sec
  3.    0.5 sec
  4.    0.25 sec
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 0.5 sec

`because `       acceleration =`a = (v - u)/(t)`

or        `a = (v - v_0)/(t)`

or        `g = (v - v_0)/(t)`                          (considered average force)

`because                    v = 0`

speed before first bounce

     `v_0 `= 5 m/sec`(uarr)`

`:.`   t = `(v - v_0)/(g) = (0 - (-5))/(10) =  5/10 = 0.5 sec`



Question 13.

When a gas filled in a closed vessel is heated upto `1^circ C` it increases by 0.4 % . The initial temperature of the gas was :


  1.    `25^circ C`
  2.    `250^circ C`
  3.    `250^circ K`
  4.    `350^circ K`
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> `250^circ C`

From the law of pressure ` prop` T

or`P_1/P_2 = T_1/T_2`

or  `P_1/T_1 = P_2/T_2`

Here `P_1 = P,  T_1 = T` 

        ` P_1 = P + 0.4% ,   P = 1.004 P`

       `  T_2 = T  + 1`

`:.`   `   P/T = (1.004 P)/(T + 1)`

or   ` T + 1 = 1.004 T`

or      0.004 T = 1

or  T = `250^circ C`



Question 14.

When two blocks A and B coupled by a spring  on a frictionless table are stretched and then released , then


  1.    kinetic energy of body at any instant afer releasing is inversely proportional to their masses
  2.    kinetic energy of body at any instant may or may not be inversely proportional to their masses
  3.    `(K.E. of A)/(K.E. of B) = (mass of B)/(mass of A)` when spring is massless
  4.    boh (B) and (C) are correct
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> boh (B) and (C) are correct

when spring is massless . Then according to momentum conservation principle,

           ` vec (p_i) = vec(p_f)`

or      `R`      ``right`      `yes` 


Question 15.

Two bodies are projected from roof with same speed different directions . If air resistance is not taken into account . Then


  1.    they reach at ground with same magnitude of moments if bodies have same masses
  2.    they reach at ground with same kinetic energy
  3.    they reach at ground with same speed
  4.    both (A) and (C) are correct
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> both (A) and (C) are correct

in the case of projectile motion, if bodies are projected with same speed , they reaches at ground with same speeds . So  if bodies have same msse3s then momentum of body will be different for different directions of projection  but magnitude of moments must be same .


Question 16.

Two blocks of mass `m_1` and `m_2` are connected by a massless spring and placed at smooth surface . The spring  initially stretched and released . Then


  1.    the momentum of each particles remains consant separately
  2.    the momentum of both bodies are same to each other
  3.    the magnitude of momentum of both bodies are same to each other
  4.    the mechanical energy of system remains constant
  5.    both (C) and (D) are correct
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option E. -> both (C) and (D) are correct

Since , no external force is present on the system . So conservation principle of momentum is applicable .

`:.`           `vec(p_i) = vec(p_f) = vec (p_1) + vec(p_2)`

`:.`          ` vec (p_1) = - vec (p_2)`                                               (  `because    vec (p_i) = 0)`

`:.`         l`vec(p_1)`l =  l - `vec(p_2)`l

`:.`       `vec(p_1) = vec(p_2)`

From this point of view, it is clear that moments of both  particles are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction .

Also friction is absent . So total mechanical energy of system remains conserved .



Question 17.

A 15 gm bullet is fired horizontally  into a 3 kg block of wood 10 cm above its initial level , the velocity of the bullet was


  1.    251 m/sec
  2.    261 m/sec
  3.    271 m/sec
  4.    281 m/sec
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 281 m/sec


Question 18.

A nucleus moving with a velocity `vec(n)` emits an `prop`-particle . Let the velocity of the `prop`-particle and the remaining nucleus be `vec(n_1) `and `vec(n_2)` and their masses be `m_1` and `m_2` then


  1.    `vec(n), vec(n_1) and vec(n_2)` must be parallel to each oher
  2.    none of the two `vec(n), vec(n_1), vec(n_2)` should be parallel to each other
  3.    `vec(n_1) + vec(n_2)` must be parallel to` vec(n)`
  4.    `m_1 vec(n_1) + vec(n_2)` must be parallel to `vec(n)`
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> `m_1 vec(n_1) + vec(n_2)` must be parallel to `vec(n)`

Since , no external force is present. So momentum conservation principle is completely applicable

`:.`        `m vec(n) = m_1 vec(n_1) + m_2 vec(n_2)`

or `(m_1 + m_2) vec(n) = m_1 vec(n_1) + m_2 vec(n_2)`

Hence , (d) is correct .



Question 19.

If a bullet is fired from a gun . Then


  1.    the mechanical energy of bullet gun system remains constant
  2.    the mechanical energy is converted into non- mechanical energy
  3.    the mechanical energy may be conserved
  4.    he non -mechanical energy is converted ino mechanical energy .
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> he non -mechanical energy is converted ino mechanical energy .

(A) During firing of the bullet from gun , the chemical energy of powder of bullet is converted into the kinetic of the system . So, final mechanical energy of system is greater than initial kinetic energy of the sysem.

(B) In this case chemical energy (non-mechanical) is converted into  mechanical energy of the system.

(C) The same reason as the above.

(D) The same reason as (A) and (B).


Question 20.

  1.    momentum decreases
  2.    momentum increases
  3.    kinetic energy increases
  4.    inetic energy decreases
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> kinetic energy increases
