Q2. For a particle performing uniform circular motion, choose the correct statement(s) from the following: 4 Marks
A Magnitude of particle velocity (speed) remains B Particle velocity remains directed perpendicular to
constant. radius vector.
C Direction of acceleration keeps changing as particle D Angular momentum is constant in magnitude but
moves. direction keeps changing.
Ans: A Magnitude of particle velocity (speed) remains constant.
B Particle velocity remains directed perpendicular to radius vector.
C Direction of acceleration keeps changing as particle moves.
Explanation:
 While a particle is in uniform circular motion. Then the following statements are true.
Important point: In uniform circular motion, magnitude of linear velocity and centripetal acceleration is constant
but direction changes continuously.
Q3. A ball is being rotated in a circle of radius 5m with a constant tangential velocity of 20m/ s. A stone is also being 4 Marks
rotated in a circle of radius 4m with a constant tangential velocity of 16m/ s. Which one of the following choices is
true about both the circular motions?
A Both have same angular velocity. B Both have different angular velocity.
C Angular velocity of ball > angular velocity of stone. D Angular velocity of stone > angular velocity of ball.
Ans: A Both have same angular velocity.
Explanation:
Tangential velocity
Angular velocity = Radius
.
When we put in the values and calculate the angular velocities for each of the circular motions, we see that both the
angular velocities are equal to each other and the value is 4 rad/ s.
Q4. For the one-dimensional motion, described by x = t − sin t. 4 Marks
A x (t) > 0 for all t > 0. B v (t) > 0 for all t > 0.
C a (t) > 0 for all t > 0. D v (t) lies between 0 and 2.
Ans: A x (t) > 0 for all t > 0. D v (t) lies between 0 and 2.
Explanation:
Position of the particle is given as a function of time i.e. x = t − sin t By differentiating this equation w.r.t. time we
get velocity of the particle as a function of time.
Velocity v = dxdt
d
= dt [t − sin t] = 1 − cos t
If we again differentiate this equation w,r,t, time we will get will get acceleration of the particle as a function of time.
Acceleration a = dvdt
= dtd
[1 − cos t] = sin t
As acceleration a > 0 for all t > 0
Hence, x(t) > 0 for all t > 0
Velocity v = 1 − cos t
When, cos t − 1, velocity v = 0
vmax = 1 − (cos t)min = 1 − (−1) = 2
vmin = 1 − (cos t)max = 1 − 1 = 0
Hence, v lies between 0 and 2.
Acceleration a = dvdt
= − sin t
When t = 0; x = 0, v = 0, a = 0
When t = π2 ; x = positive, v = 0, a = -1 (negative)
When t = 2π, x = 0, v = 0, a = 0
Q5. An object starts 5m from origin and moves with an initial velocity of 5ms−1 and has an acceleration of 2ms−2. After 4 Marks
10sec, the object is how far from the origin?
A 150m B 145m C 155m D 55m
Ans: C 155m
Explanation:
at2
Displacement in 10 seconds is ut + 2
2
= 5 × 10 + 2 × 102 = 150 meter
Final position is initial position + displacement 5 + 150 = 155meter
Q6. A body thrown vertically up from the ground passes the height 10.2m twice at an interval of 10s. What was its initial 4 Marks
velocity? (in m/ s)
A 52 B 53 C 51 D 49
Ans: A 52
Explanation:
If the body moving vertically passes twice in 10sec then it is clear that it will go up for 5sec and next 5sec will be
consumed by body to come down back. distance traveled in 5 sec starting from rest and with acceleration
10(returning from top using S = ut + 12 ?at2 ), is 125 meters. so total height is (125 + 10.2 = 135.2) initial velocity
is calculated by using v2 - u2 = 2aS
v = √2704 = 52m/s.
Q7. A driver takes 0.20s to apply the brakes after he sees a need for it. This is called the reaction time of the driver. If he 4 Marks
is driving a car at a speed of 54km/ h and the brakes causes a deceleration of 6.0 m/ s2, find the distance traveled by
the car after he sees the need to put the brakes on.
A 18.63m B 20m C 26.85m D 27.67m
Ans: A 18.63m
Q8. A stone drop from height 'h' on Earth surface fall in 1sec. If the same stone taken to Moon and drop freely then it will 4 Marks

A √6 second B 9 second
C √3 second D 6 second
Ans: A √6 second

Q10.A cricket ball of mass 150g has an initial velocity u = (3^i + 4^j)m s−1 and a final velocity v = −(3^i + 4^j)m s−1 4 Marks
after being hit. The change in momentum (final momentum-initial momentum) is (in kg m s1):
A zero B −(0.45^i + 0.6^j)
C −(0.9^i + 1.2^j) D −5(^i + ^j)
Ans: C −(0.9^i + 1.2^j)
Explanation:

According to the problam, u = (3^i + 4^j)m s−1 and v = −(3^i + 4^j)m s−1 mass of the ball = 150g = 0.15kg.
Chang in momentum will be

Hence, Δp = −[0.9^i + 1.2^j]

impulse(in N s).
A 0 B -100 C -10 D -10000
Ans: C -10
Explanation:
Impulse = change in momentum
Impulse = final momentum - initial momentum
= 0 - (5kg × 2ms-1)
= -10kgms-1
= -10Ns-1
Q13.For two statements are given-one labelled Assertion (A) and the other labelled Reason (R). Select the correct answer 4 Marks
to these questions from the codes (a), (b), (c) and (d) as given below.
Assertion: It is not always necessary that external agency of force is in contact with the object while applying force
on object.

Q14.When forces F1, F2, F3 are acting on a particle of mass m such that F2 and F2 are mutually perpendicular, then the 4 Marks
particle remain stationary. If the force F1 is now removed, then the acceleration of the particle is:
F1 F2
A m
B m
F3
C m
D none of these
F1
Ans: A m

Explanation:
As F3 and F3 are mutually perpendicular, their resultant = √F22 + F23

As particle is stationary under F1, F2, F3, therefore, √F22 + F23 must be equal and opposite of F1.

When F1 is removed, resultant force is √F22 + F23

√F22 +F23 F1
Therefore, acceleration of particle = m = m
Q15.You measure two quantities as A = 1.0m ± 0.2m, B = 2.0m ± 0.2m. We should report correct value for √AB 4 Marks

A 1.4m ± 0.4m. B 1.41m ± 0.15m.
C 1.4m ± 0.3m. D 1.4m ± 0.2m.
Ans: D 1.4m ± 0.2m.
Explanation:
According to the problem, A = 1.0m ± 0.2m, B = 2.0m ± 0.2m
Let, Z = √AB = √(1.0)(2.0) = 1.414m
