The mass of cyclist together with the bike is 90 kg. Calculate the increase in kinetic energy if the speed
increases from 6.0 km/h to 12 km/h.
(b)
\(\begin{aligned}
&M=m_{c}+m_{b}=90 \mathrm{~kg} \\
&u=6 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}=1.666 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec} \\
&v=12 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}=3.333 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec} \\
&\text { Increase in } \mathrm{K} . \mathrm{E} .=1 / 2 \mathrm{Mv}^{2}-1 / 2 \mathrm{Mu}^{2} \\
&=1 / 290 \times(3.333)^{2}-1 / 2 \times 90 \times(1.66)^{2}=374.8 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}\)
A block of mass \(2.00 \mathrm{~kg}\) moving at a speed of \(10.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) accelerates at \(3.00 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\) for \(5.00 \mathrm{~s}\). What is its final kinetic energy?
(c)
\(\begin{aligned}
&m =2 \mathrm{~kg} . \\
&u=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec} \\
&a=3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{aec}^{2} \\
&t=5 \mathrm{sec} \\
&\mathrm{v}=\mathrm{u}+\mathrm{at}=10+315=25 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec} . \\
&\therefore \text { Final Kinetic Energy }=1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}^{2}=625 \mathrm{~J} .
\end{aligned}\)
A box is pushed through \(4.0 \mathrm{~m}\) across a floor offering \(100 \mathrm{~N}\) resistance. How much work is done by the resisting force?
(a) Resisting force acting on the box, \(F=100 \mathrm{~N}\)
Displacement of the box, \(S=4 \mathrm{~m}\)
Also,
\(
\theta=180^{\circ}
\)
\(\therefore\) Work done by the resisting force,
\(
W=\vec{F} \cdot \vec{S}=100 \times 4 \times \cos 180^{\circ}=-400 J
\)
A block of mass \(5.0 \mathrm{~kg}\) slides down an incline of inclination \(30^{\circ}\) and length \(10 \mathrm{~m}\). What is the work done by the force of gravity?
(d)
Mass of the block, \(M=5 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Angle of inclination, \(\theta=30^{\circ}\)
Gravitational force acting on the block,
\(F=m g\)
Work done by the force of gravity depends only on the height of the object, not on the path length covered by the object.
Height of the object, \(h=10 \times \sin 30^{\circ}\)
\(
=10 \times \frac{1}{2}=5 m
\)
\(\therefore\) Work done by the force of gravity, w \(=\mathrm{mgh}\)
\(
=5 \times 9.8 \times 5=245 J
\)
A constant force of \(2.50 \mathrm{~N}\) accelerates a stationary particle of mass \(15 \mathrm{~g}\) through a displacement of \(2.50 \mathrm{~m}\). What is the work done and the average power delivered?
(a) Given:
\(\mathrm{F}=2.50 \mathrm{~N}, \mathrm{~S}=2.5 \mathrm{~m}\) and \(\mathrm{m}=15 \mathrm{~g}=0.015 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Work done by the force,
\(W=F \cdot S \cos 0^{\circ}\) ( acting along the same line )
\(
=2.5 \times 2.5=6.25 \mathrm{~J}
\)
Acceleration of the particle is,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{2.5}{0.015} \\
&=\frac{500}{3} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}
\end{aligned}
\)
Applying the work-energy principle for finding the final velocity of the particle,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}-0=6.25 \\
&\Rightarrow \nu=\sqrt{\frac{6.25 \times 2}{0.15}}=28.86 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, time taken by the particle to cover \(2.5 \mathrm{~m}\) distance,
\(t=\frac{\nu-u}{a}=\frac{(28.86) \times 3}{500}\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\therefore \text { Average power }=\frac{W}{t} \\
&=\frac{6.25 \times 500}{(28.86) \times 3}=36.1 W
\end{aligned}
\)
A particle moves from a point \(\overrightarrow{r_{1}}=(2 \mathrm{~m}) \vec{i}+(3 \mathrm{~m}) \vec{j}\) to another point \(\overrightarrow{r_{2}}=(3 \mathrm{~m}) \vec{i}+(2 \mathrm{~m}) \vec{j}\) during which a certain force \(\vec{F}=(5 \mathrm{~N}) \vec{i}+(5 \mathrm{~N}) \vec{j}\) acts on it. Find the work done by the force on the particle during the displacement.
(d) Initial position vector, \(\overrightarrow{r_{1}}=2 \vec{i}+3 \vec{j}\) Final position vector, \(\vec{r}_{2}=3 \vec{i}+2 \vec{j}\)
So, displacement vector,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\vec{r}=\vec{r}_{2}-\vec{r}_{1} \\
&=(3 \vec{i}+2 \vec{j})-(2 \vec{i}+\vec{j}) \\
&=\vec{i}-\vec{j}
\end{aligned}
\)
Force acting on the particle,\(\vec{F}=5 \vec{i}+5 \vec{j}\)
So, work done \(=\vec{F} \cdot \vec{S}=5 \times 1+5(-1)=0\)
A man moves on a straight horizontal road with a block of mass \(2 \mathrm{~kg}\) in his hand. If he covers a distance of \(40 \mathrm{~m}\) with an acceleration of \(0.5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\), What is the work done by the man on the block during the motion?
(c) Given:
Mass of the block, \(m=2 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Distance covered by the man, \(s=40 \mathrm{~m}\)
Acceleration of the man, \(\mathrm{a}=0.5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\)
So, force applied by the man on the box,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&F=m a \\
&=2 \times(0.5) \\
&=1 N
\end{aligned}
\)
Work done by the man on the block, \(W=F \cdot S\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&=1 \times 40 \\
&=40 J
\end{aligned}
\)
A force \(F=a+b x\) acts on a particle in the \(x\)-direction, where \(a\) and \(b\) are constants. What is the work done by this force during a displacement from \(x=0\) to \(x=d\)?
(a) Given that force is a function of displacement, i.e.
\(
F=a+b x \text {, }
\)
where \(a\) and \(b\) are constants.
So, work done by this force during the displacement \(x=0\) to \(x=d\),
\(
\begin{aligned}
&W=\int_{0}^{d} F \mathrm{dx} \\
&W=\int_{0}^{d}(a+b x) d x \\
&W=\left[a x+\frac{b x^{2}}{2}\right]_{0}^{d} \\
&W=a d+\frac{b d^{2}}{2} \\
&\Rightarrow W=\left(a+\frac{b d}{2}\right) d
\end{aligned}
\)
A block of mass \(250 \mathrm{~g}\) slides down an incline of inclination \(37^{\circ}\) with a uniform speed. Find the work done against the friction as the block slides through \(1.0 \mathrm{~m}\).
(b) Given :
\(
\mathrm{m}=250 \mathrm{~g}, \theta=37^{\circ}, \mathrm{d}=1 \mathrm{~m}
\)
Here, \(R\) is the normal reaction of the block.
As the block is moving with uniform speed, \(F=\mu \mathrm{R}=\mathrm{mg} \sin 37^{\circ}\)
So, work done against the force of friction,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&W=\mathrm{Fd} \cos 0^{\circ} \\
&W=\left(\operatorname{mg} \sin 37^{\circ}\right) \times d \\
&W=\left(0.25 \times 9.8 \times \sin 37^{\circ}\right) \times 1.0 \\
&W=1.5 J
\end{aligned}
\)
A block of mass \(m\) is kept over another block of mass \(M\) and the system rests on a horizontal surface. A constant horizontal force \(F\) acting on the lower block produces an acceleration \(\frac{F}{2(\mathrm{~m}+\mathrm{M})}\) in the system, the two blocks always move together. (a) Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between the bigger block and the horizontal surface. (b) Find the frictional force acting on the smaller block. (c) Find the work done by the force of friction on the smaller block by the bigger block during a displacement d of the system.
(a)
Given \(a=\frac{F}{2(M+m)} \)
case-a: From the figure below
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{ma}=\mu \mathrm{R} \text { and } \mathrm{R}=\mathrm{mg} \\
&\Rightarrow \mu=\frac{\mathrm{ma}}{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{\mathrm{F}}{2(\mathrm{M}+\mathrm{m}) \mathrm{g}}
\end{aligned}
\)
case b: Frictional force acting on the smaller block \(f=\mu R=\frac{F}{2(M+m) g} \times m g=\frac{m \times F}{2(M+m)}\)
case-c: Work done \(\mathrm{w}=\mathrm{fs}\)
\(
s=d
\)
\(
w=\frac{m F}{2(M+m)} \times d=\frac{m F d}{2(M+m)}
\)
A box weighing \(2000 \mathrm{~N}\) is to be slowly slid through \(20 \mathrm{~m}\) on a straight track having friction coefficient \(0.2\) with the box. (a) Find the work done by the person pulling the box with a chain at an angle \(\theta\) with the horizontal. (b) Find the work when the person has chosen a value of \(\theta\) which ensures him the minimum magnitude of the force.
(a) Given Weight \(=2000 \mathrm{~N}, \mathrm{~s}=20 \mathrm{~m}, \mu=0.2\)
The free-body diagram for the box is shown below:
case-a: From the figure,
\(R+P \sin \theta-2000=0 \ldots(i)\) \(P \cos \theta-0.2 R=0\)… (ii)
From the equation (i) and (ii),
\(
\begin{aligned}
&P \cos \theta-0.2(2000-P \sin \theta)=0 \\
&P(\cos \theta+0.2 \sin \theta)=400 \\
&P=\frac{400}{\cos \theta+0.2 \sin \theta} \ldots(\text { iii })
\end{aligned}
\)
So, work done by the person,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&W=P S \cos \theta \\
&=\frac{8000 \cos \theta}{\cos \theta+0.2 \sin \theta} \\
&=\frac{8000}{1+0.2 \tan \theta} \\
&=\frac{40000}{5+\tan \theta} \ldots(i v)
\end{aligned}
\)
(b) For minimum magnitude of force from equation (iii),
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\frac{d}{d k}(\cos \theta+0.2 \sin \theta)=0 \\
&\Rightarrow \tan \theta=0.2
\end{aligned}
\)
Putting the value in equation (iv),
\(
\begin{aligned}
&W=\frac{40000}{(5+\tan \theta)} \\
&=\frac{40000}{5+0.2} \approx 7692 J
\end{aligned}\)
A block of weight \(100 \mathrm{~N}\) is slowly slid up on a smooth incline of inclination \(37^{\circ}\) by a person. Calculate the work done by the person in moving the block through a distance of \(2.0 \mathrm{~m}\), if the driving force is (a) parallel to the incline and (b) in the horizontal direction.
(c) Given Weight, \(\mathrm{mg}=100 \mathrm{~N}\)
\(\theta=37^{\circ}\) and \(\mathrm{s}=2 \mathrm{~m}\)
Force, \(F=m g \sin 37^{\circ}\)
\(=100 \times \frac{3}{5}=60 N\)
So, work done when the force is parallel to incline,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&W=F S \cos \theta \\
&=60 \times 2 \times \cos 0^{\circ}=120 J
\end{aligned}
\)
In \(\triangle A B C, A B=2 \mathrm{~m}\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&A C=\mathrm{h} \\
&=s \times \sin 37^{\circ}=2.0 \times \sin 37^{\circ} \\
&=1.2 \mathrm{~m}
\end{aligned}
\)
\(\therefore\) Work done when the force is in horizontal direction,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{W}=\mathrm{mgh} \\
&=100 \times 1.2=120 J
\end{aligned}
\)
Find the average frictional force needed to stop a car weighing \(500 \mathrm{~kg}\) in a distance of \(25 \mathrm{~m}\) if the initial speed is \(72 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\).
(b) Given Mass of the car, \(\mathrm{m}=500 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Distance covered by the car, \(\mathrm{s}=25 \mathrm{~m}\)
Initial speed of the car, \(u=72 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}=20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Final speed of the car, \(v=0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Retardation of the car,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&a=\frac{\left(v^{2}-u^{2}\right)}{2 s} \\
&\Rightarrow a=-\frac{400}{50}=-8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}
\end{aligned}
\)
Frictional force, \(\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{ma}=500 \times 8=4000 \mathrm{~N}\)
Find the average force needed to accelerate a car weighing \(500 \mathrm{~kg}\) from rest to \(72 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\) in a distance of \(25 \mathrm{~m}\).
(c) The acceleration of the car is given as,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{v}^{2}=\mathrm{u}^{2}+2 \mathrm{as} \\
&\left(72 \times \frac{5}{18}\right)^{2}=0+2 \times \mathrm{a} \times 25 \\
&\mathrm{a}=8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}
\end{aligned}
\)
The force is given as,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&F=m a \\
&=500 \times 8 \\
&=4000 \mathrm{~N}
\end{aligned}
\)
Thus, the average force needed to accelerate the car is \(4000 \mathrm{~N}\).
A particle of mass \(m\) moves on a straight line with its velocity varying with the distance travelled according to the equation \(v=a \sqrt{x}\), where \(a\) is a constant. Find the total work done by all the forces during a displacement from \(x=0\) to \(x=d\).
(a) GIven,
\(v=a \sqrt{x}(\) uniformly accelerated motion )
Displacement, \(s=d-0=d\)
Putting \(x=0\), we get \(v_{1}=0\)
Putting \(\mathrm{x}=\mathrm{d}\), we get \(v_{2}=a \sqrt{d}\)
\(a=\frac{v_{2}^{2}-v_{1}^{2}}{2 s}=\frac{a^{2} d}{2 d}=\frac{a^{2}}{2}\)
Force, \(\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{m} a=\frac{m a^{2}}{2}\)
Work done, W \(=\) Fs \(\cos \theta\)
\(
=\frac{m a^{2}}{2} \times d=\frac{m a^{2} d}{2}
\)
A block of mass \(2.0 \mathrm{~kg}\) kept at rest on an inclined plane of inclination \(37^{\circ}\) is pulled up the plane by applying a constant force of \(20 \mathrm{~N}\) parallel to the incline. The force acts for one second. (a) Show that the work done by the applied force does not exceed \(40 \mathrm{~J}\). (b) Find the work done by the force of gravity in that one second if the work done by the applied force is \(40 \mathrm{~J}\). (c) Find the kinetic energy of the block at the instant the force ceases to act. Take \(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\).
(d)
(a) \(m=2 \mathrm{~kg}, \quad \theta=37^{\circ}, \quad \mathrm{F}=20 \mathrm{~N}\)
From the free body diagram
\(
\begin{aligned}
&F=(2 g \sin \theta)+m a \Rightarrow a=(20-20 \sin \theta) / s=4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}^{2} \\
&\mathrm{~S}=u \mathrm{t}+1 / 2 a \mathrm{t}^{2} \quad(\mathrm{u}=0, \mathrm{t}=1 \mathrm{~s}, \mathrm{a}=1.66) \\
&=2 \mathrm{~m}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, work, done w \(=F_{s}=20 \times 2=40 \mathrm{~J}\)
(b) If \(W=40 J\)
\(
S=\frac{W}{F}=\frac{40}{20}=2 \mathrm{~m}
\)
\(
h=2 \sin 37^{\circ}=1.2 \mathrm{~m}
\)
So, the work done
\(
\begin{aligned}
&W=-\text { mgh } \\
&=-20 \times 1.2=-24 J
\end{aligned}
\)
(c) \(v=u+\) at \(=4 \times 10=40 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}\)
So, Kinetic Energy \(=1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}^{2}=1 / 2 \times 2 \times 16=16 \mathrm{~J}\)
A block of mass \(2 \cdot 0 \mathrm{~kg}\) is pushed down an inclined plane of inclination \(37^{\circ}\) with a force of \(20 \mathrm{~N}\) acting parallel to the incline. It is found that the block moves on the incline with an acceleration of \(10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\). If the block started from rest, find the work done (a) by the applied force in the first second, (b) by the weight of the block in the first second, and (c) by the frictional force acting on the block in the first second. Take \(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\).
(c) \(\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{m}=2 \mathrm{~kg}, \quad \theta=37^{\circ}, \quad \mathrm{F}=20 \mathrm{~N}, \quad a=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}^{2} \\
&\text { a) } \mathrm{t}=1 \mathrm{sec} \\
&\text { So, s= ut }+1 / 2 a t^{2}=5 \mathrm{~m}
\end{aligned}\)
Work done by the applied force \(w=F S \cos 0^{\circ}=20 \times 5=100 \mathrm{~J}\)
b) \(B C(h)=5 \sin 37^{\circ}=3 \mathrm{~m}\)
So, work done by the weight \(W=m g h=2 \times 10 \times 3=60 \mathrm{~J}\)
c) So, frictional force \(f=m g \sin \theta\)
work done by the frictional forces \(w=f s \cos 0^{\circ}=(m g \sin \theta) s=20 \times 0.60 \times 5=60 \mathrm{~J}\)
A \(250 \mathrm{~g}\) block slides on a rough horizontal table. Find the work done by the frictional force in bringing the block to rest if it is initially moving at a speed of 40 \(\mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{s}\). If the friction coefficient between the table and the block is 0.1, how far does the block move before coming to rest?
(a) Given, \(m=250 \mathrm{~g}=0.250 \mathrm{~kg}\),
\(
u=40 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{sec}=0.4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}
\)
\(
\mu=0.1, \quad v=0
\)
Here, \(\mu R=\operatorname{ma}\{\) where, \(a=\) deceleration \(\}\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&a=\frac{\mu R}{m}=\frac{\mu \mathrm{mg}}{m}=\mu g=0.1 \times 9.8=0.98 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}^{2} \\
&\mathrm{~S}=\frac{\mathrm{v}^{2}-\mathrm{u}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{a}}=0.082 \mathrm{~m}=8.2 \mathrm{~cm}
\end{aligned}
\)
Again, work done against friction is given by
\(
\begin{aligned}
&-W=\mu R S \cos \theta \\
&=0.1 \times 2.5 \times 0.082 \times 1\left(\theta=0^{\circ}\right)=0.02 \mathrm{~J} \\
&\Rightarrow W=-0.02 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
Water falling from a \(50 \mathrm{~m}\) high fall is to be used for generating electric energy. If \(1.8 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~kg}\) of water falls per hour and half the gravitational potential energy can be converted into electric energy, how many \(100 \mathrm{~W}\) lamps can be lit?
(d) Given Height, \(h=50 \mathrm{~m}\)
Mass of water falling per hour, \(\mathrm{m}=1.8 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~kg}\)
Power of a lamp,
\(P=100\) watt
Potential energy of the water ,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\text { P.E. = mgh } \\
&=1.8 \times 10^{5} \times 9.8 \times 50 \\
&=882 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
As only half the potential energy of water is converted into electrical energy,
Electrical energy \(=\frac{1}{2} P. \) E . \(=441 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{hr}\)
So, power in watt \((J / \mathrm{sec})=\left(\frac{441 \times 10^{5}}{60 \times 60}\right)\)
Therefore, the number of \(100 \mathrm{~W}\) lamps that can be lit using this energy,
\(
\mathrm{n}=\frac{441 \times 10^{5}}{3600 \times 100}=122.5 \approx 122
\)
A person is painting his house walls. He stands on a ladder with a bucket containing paint in one hand and a brush in the other. Suddenly the bucket slips from his hand and falls down on the floor. If the bucket with the paint had a mass of \(6.0 \mathrm{~kg}\) and was at a height of \(2.0 \mathrm{~m}\) at the time it slipped, how much gravitational potential energy is lost together with the paint?
(c) Given Mass of the bucket with the paint, \(m=6 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Height at which the bucket is placed, \(h=2 \mathrm{~m}\)
Potential energy of the bucket with the paint at the given height,
\(P . E .=m g h\)
\(=6 \times(9.8) \times 2\)
\(=117.6 J\)
\(P . E\). on the floor \(=0\)
Loss in potential energy \(=117.6-0\)
\(
=117.6 J \approx 118 J
\)
A projectile is fired from the top of a \(40 \mathrm{~m}\) high cliff with an initial speed of \(50 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) at an unknown angle. Find its speed when it hits the ground.
(a) Given Height of the cliff, \(h=40 \mathrm{~m}\)
Initial speed of the projectile, \(u=50 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Let the projectile hit the ground with velocity v.
Applying the law of conservation of energy,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{mgh}+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mu}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}^{2} \\
&\Rightarrow 10 \times 40+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \times 2500=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{v}^{2} \\
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{v}^{2}=3300 \\
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{v}=57.4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\approx 58 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}
\end{aligned}
\)
The projectile hits the ground with a speed of \(58 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\).
The \(200 \mathrm{~m}\) freestyle women’s swimming gold medal at Seol Olympic 1988 went to Heike Friendrich of East Germany when she set a new Olympic record of 1 minute and \(57.56\) seconds. Assume that she covered most of the distance with a uniform speed and had to exert \(460 \mathrm{~W}\) to maintain her speed. Calculate the average force of resistance offered by the water during the swim.
(c) Time taken to cover \(200 \mathrm{~m}, \mathrm{t}=1 \mathrm{~min} 57.56\) seconds \(=117.56 \mathrm{~s}\)
Power exerted by her,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{P}=460 \mathrm{~W} \\
&P=\frac{W}{t}
\end{aligned}
\)
Work done, \(\mathrm{W}=\mathrm{Pt}=460 \times 117.56 \mathrm{~J}\)
Again, \(W=F S\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\Rightarrow F=\frac{W}{S} \\
&=\frac{460 \times 117.56}{200} \\
&=270.3 \mathrm{~N} \approx 270 \mathrm{~N}
\end{aligned}
\)
\(\therefore\) Resistance force offered by the water during the swim is \(270 \mathrm{~N}\).
The US athlete Florence Griffith-Joyner won the \(100 \mathrm{~m}\) sprint gold medal at Seol Olympic 1988 setting a new Olympic record of \(10.54 \mathrm{~s}\). Assume that she achieved her maximum speed in a very short time and then ran the race with that speed till she crossed the line. Take her mass to be \(50 \mathrm{~kg}\). (a) Calculate the kinetic energy of Griffith-Joyner at her full speed. (b) Assuming that the track, the wind, etc. offered an average resistance of one-tenth of her weight, calculate the work done by the resistance during the run. (c) What power GriffithJoyner had to exert to maintain uniform speed?
\(
\mathrm{s}=100 \mathrm{~m}, \quad \mathrm{t}=10.54 \mathrm{sec}, \mathrm{m}=50 \mathrm{~kg}
\)
The motion can be assumed to be uniform because the time taken for acceleration is minimum.
a) Speed \(v=S / t=9.487 \mathrm{e} / \mathrm{s}\)
So, K.E. \(=1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}^{2}=2250 \mathrm{~J}\)
b) Weight \(=\mathrm{mg}=490 \mathrm{~J}\)
given \(R=m g / 10=49 \mathrm{~J}\)
so, work done against resistance \(W_{F}=-R S=-49 \times 100=-4900 \mathrm{~J}\)
c) To maintain her uniform speed, she has to exert \(4900 \mathrm{J}\) of energy to over come friction
\(
P=\frac{W}{t}=4900 / 10.54=465 \mathrm{~W}
\)
A water pump lifts water from a level \(10 \mathrm{~m}\) below the ground. Water is pumped at a rate of \(30 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{minute}\) with negligible velocity. Calculate the minimum horsepower the engine should have to do this.
Height through which water is lifted, \(h=10 \mathrm{~m}\)
Flow rate of water \(=\left(\frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{t}}\right)\)
\(=30 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{min}=0.5 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{s}\)
Power delivered by the engine,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&P=\frac{\mathrm{mgh}}{\mathrm{t}} \\
&=(0.5) \times 9.8 \times 10 \\
&=49 \mathrm{~W} \\
&1 \mathrm{hp}=746 \mathrm{~W}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the minimum horse power (hp) that the engine should possess
\(
\begin{aligned}
&=\frac{\mathrm{p}}{746}=\left(\frac{49}{746}\right) \\
&=6.6 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{hp}
\end{aligned}

An unruly demonstrator lifts a stone of mass \(200 \mathrm{~g}\) from the ground and throws it at his opponent. At the time of projection, the stone is \(150 \mathrm{~cm}\) above the ground and has a speed of \(3.00 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). Calculate the work done by the demonstrator during the process. If it takes one second for the demonstrator to lift the stone and throw, what horsepower does he use?
(a) The correct answer is
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{m}=200 \mathrm{~g}=0.2 \mathrm{~kg}, \quad \mathrm{~h}=150 \mathrm{~cm}=1.5 \mathrm{~m}, \quad \mathrm{v}=3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec} \text {, Total } \\
&\quad \mathrm{t}=1 \mathrm{sec} \\
&\text { work done } \\
&=1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}^{2}+\mathrm{mgh}=(1 / 2) \times(0.2) \times 9+(0.2) \times(9.8) \times(1.5) \\
&=3.84 \mathrm{~J} \\
&\text { h.p. used }=\frac{3.84}{746}=5.14 \times 10^{-3}
\end{aligned}
\)
In a factory it is desired to lift \(2000 \mathrm{~kg}\) of metal through a distance of \(12 \mathrm{~m}\) in 1 minute. What is the minimum horsepower of the engine to be used?
(d) Given Mass of the metal,
\(
\mathrm{m}=2000 \mathrm{~kg}
\)
Distance, \(s=12 \mathrm{~m}\)
Time taken, \(\mathrm{t}=1\) minute \(=60 \mathrm{~s}\)
Force applied by the engine to lift the metal,
\(
\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{mg}
\)
So, work done by the engine,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{W}=\mathrm{F} \times \mathrm{s} \times \cos \theta=\mathrm{mgs} \times \cos 0^{\circ}\left[\theta=0^{\circ} \text { for minimum force }\right] \\
&=2000 \times 10 \times 12 \\
&=240000 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, power exerted by the engine,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&P=\frac{W}{t} \\
&=\frac{240000}{60}=4000 \text { watt }
\end{aligned}
\)
Power in hp,
\(
P=\frac{4000}{746}=5.3 \mathrm{hp}
\)
A scooter company gives the following specifications about its product.Weight of the scooter \(-95 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Maximum speed – \(60 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\)
Maximum engine power – \(3.5 \mathrm{hp}\)
Pick up time to get the maximum speed \(-5 \mathrm{~s}\)
What is the validity of these specifications?
(a) The specification given by the company are
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{u}=0, \mathrm{~m}=95 \mathrm{~kg}, \mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{m}}=3.5 \mathrm{hp} \\
&\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{m}}=60 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}=50 / 3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}, \mathrm{} \mathrm{t}_{\mathrm{m}}=5 \mathrm{sec}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the maximum acceleration that can be produced is given by, \(a=\frac{(50 / 3)-0}{5}=\frac{10}{3}\)
So, the driving forces is given by
\(
\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{ma}=95 \times \frac{10}{3}=\frac{950}{3} \mathrm{~N}
\)
So, the velocity that can be attained by maximum h.p. While supplying \(\frac{950}{3}\)N Force will be \(\mathrm{v}=\frac{\mathrm{p}}{\mathrm{F}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{v}=\frac{3.5 \times 746 \times 3}{950}=8.2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}\).
Because, the scooter can reach a maximum of \(8 .\mathrm{2} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{sec}\) while producing a force of \(950 / 3 \mathrm{~N}\), the specifications given are some what over claimed.
A block of mass \(30.0 \mathrm{~kg}\) is being brought down by a chain. If the block acquires a speed of \(40.0 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}\) in dropping down \(2.00 \mathrm{~m}\), find the work done by the chain during the process.
(c) Given ,Mass of the block, \(\mathrm{m}=30 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Speed acquired by the block, \(v=40 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}\) \(=0.4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Distance covered by the block, \(\mathrm{s}=2 \mathrm{~m}\)
Let \(a\) be the acceleration of the block in the downward direction.
The Force applied by the chain on the block(draw the free body diagram),
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{F}=(\mathrm{ma}-\mathrm{mg}) \\
&=\mathrm{m}(\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{g}) \\
&\mathrm{a}=\frac{v^{2}-\mathrm{u}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{~s}} \\
&=\frac{0.16}{4}=0.04 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}
\end{aligned}
\)
Work done by the chain,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{W}=\text { FS } \cos \theta \\
&=\mathrm{m}(\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{g}) \times \mathrm{s} \cos 0^{\circ} \\
&=30(0.04-9.8) \times 2 \\
&=-30 \times(9.76) \times 2 \\
&=-585.6=-586 \mathrm{~J} \\
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{W}=-586 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
The heavier block in an Atwood machine has a mass twice that of the lighter one. The tension in the string is \(16.0 \mathrm{~N}\) when the system is set into motion. Find the decrease in the gravitational potential energy during the first second after the system is released from rest.
(a) Given, \(T=19 \mathrm{~N}\)
From the free-body diagrams,
\(\begin{aligned}
2 m g-T &=2 m a \dots (i)\\
T-m g &=m a \dots (ii)
\end{aligned}\)
From equations (i) and (ii),
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{T}=4 \mathrm{ma} \\
&\Rightarrow a=\frac{T}{4 \mathrm{~m}}=\frac{4}{\mathrm{~m}} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}
\end{aligned}
\)
Now, displacement \(\mathrm{S}=\mathrm{ut}+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{at}^{2}\)
Net mass \(=2 \mathrm{~m}-\mathrm{m}=\mathrm{m}\)
Decrease in potential energy,
P. E. \(=\mathrm{mgh}\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&=\mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{g} \times\left(\frac{2}{\mathrm{~m}}\right) \\
&=9.8 \times 2=19.6 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
The two blocks in an Atwood machine have masses \(2.0 \mathrm{~kg}\) and \(3.0 \mathrm{~kg}\). Find the work done by gravity during the fourth second after the system is released from rest.
(b) Given,
\(
\mathrm{m}_{1}=3 \mathrm{~kg}, \mathrm{~m}_{2}=2 \mathrm{~kg}, \mathrm{t}=\text { during } 4^{\text {th }} \text { second }
\)
From the free-body diagram,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&T-3 g+3 a=0 \ldots \text { (i) } \\
&T-2 g-2 a=0 \ldots \text { (ii) }
\end{aligned}
\)
Equating (i) and (ii), we get:
\(
\begin{aligned}
&3 g-3 a=2 g+2 a \\
&\Rightarrow a=\frac{g}{5} m / s^{2}
\end{aligned}
\)
Distance travelled in the \(4^{\text {th }}\) second,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{s}\left(4^{\text {th }}\right)=\frac{a}{2}(2 \mathrm{n}-1) \\
&=\frac{\left(\frac{g}{5}\right)}{2}(2 \times 4-1) \\
&=\frac{7 \mathrm{~g}}{10}=\frac{7 \times 9.8}{10} \mathrm{~m}
\end{aligned}
\)
Net mass m \(=m_{1}-m_{2}=3-2=1 \mathrm{~kg}\)
So, decrease in potential energy,
P.E. = mgh
\(P . E .=1 \times 9.8 \times\left(\frac{7}{10}\right) \times 9.8=67.2 \mathrm{~J}=67 \mathrm{~J}\)
So, work done by gravity during the fourth second \(=\) P.E. \(=67 \mathrm{~J}\)
Consider the situation shown in the figure below. The system is released from rest and the block of mass \(1.0 \mathrm{~kg}\) is found to have a speed \(0.3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) after it has descended through a distance of \(1 \mathrm{~m}\). Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the table.
(d) From the problem it is given given,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{m}_{1}=4 \mathrm{~kg}, \mathrm{~m}_{2}=1 \mathrm{~kg} \\
&\mathrm{v}_{2}=0.3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \\
&\mathrm{v}_{1}=2 \times 0.3=0.6 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \\
&\left(\mathrm{v}_{1}=2 \mathrm{v}_{2} \text { in this system }\right)
\end{aligned}
\)
Height descended by the \(1 \mathrm{~kg}\) block, \(\mathrm{h}=1 \mathrm{~m}\)
Distance travelled by the \(4 \mathrm{~kg}\) block,
\(
\mathrm{s}=2 \times 1=2 \mathrm{~m}
\)
Initially the system is at rest. So, \(u=0\)
Applying work energy theoremwhich says that
change in \(\mathrm{K} . \mathrm{E} .=\) Work done (for the system )
\(
\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \mathrm{m}_{1} v_{1}^{2}+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \mathrm{m}_{2} v_{2}^{2}=(-\mu \mathrm{R}) \mathrm{s}+\mathrm{m}_{2} \mathrm{gh}
\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times(0.36)+\frac{1}{2} \times 1 \times(0.09)[\mathrm{As}, \mathrm{R}=4 \mathrm{~g}=40 \mathrm{~N}] \\
&=-\mu 40 \times 2+1 \times 40 \times 1 \\
&\Rightarrow 0.72+0.045=-80 \mu+10 \\
&\Rightarrow \mu=\frac{9.235}{80}=0.12
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the table is \(0.12\).
A block of mass \(100 \mathrm{~g}\) is moved with a speed of \(5.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) at the highest point in a closed circular tube of radius \(10 \mathrm{~cm}\) kept in a vertical plane. The cross-section of the tube is such that the block just fits in it. The block makes several oscillations inside the tube and finally stops at the lowest point. Find the work done by the tube on the block during the process.
(a) Given ,Mass of the block, \(\mathrm{m}=100 \mathrm{~g}=0.1 \mathrm{~kg}\),
Velocity of the block at the highest point, \(v=5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Radius of the circular tube, \(r=10 \mathrm{~cm}\)
Work done by the block
\(=\) Total energy at the highest point A- Total energy at the lowest point B
\(
\begin{aligned}
&=\left(\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m} v^{2}+\mathrm{mgh}-0\right) \\
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{W}=\frac{1}{2} \times(0.1) \times 25+(0.1) \times 10 \times(0.2) \\
&\text { As, } h=2 r=0.2 \mathrm{~m} \\
&\mathrm{~W}=1.25+0.2=1.45 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the work done by the tube on the body is \(-1.45\) joule.
A car weighing \(1400 \mathrm{~kg}\) is moving at a speed of \(54 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\) up a hill when the motor stops. If it is just able to reach the destination which is at a height of \(10 \mathrm{~m}\) above the point, calculate the work done against friction (negative of the work done by the friction).
(c) Given,Mass of the car, \(\mathrm{m}=1400 \mathrm{~kg}\)
\(\mathrm{h}=10 \mathrm{~m}\)
Since the car is moving when the motor stops, it has kinetic energy . Thus
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{v}_{i}=54 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h} \times \frac{5}{18}=15 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \\
&\mathrm{v}_{f}=0 \\
&\triangle \mathrm{K}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}_{\mathrm{f}}^{2}-\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}_{\mathrm{i}}^{2} \\
&\triangle \mathrm{K}=\frac{1}{2} \times 1400\left(0^{2}-15^{2}\right) \\
&\triangle \mathrm{K}=-157500 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
Let the gravitational potential energy be zero at the starting point .
Then the potential energy at the terminal is
\(
\begin{aligned}
&U_{\mathrm{i}}=0 \\
&U_{f}=m g h \\
&U_{f}=1400 \times 9.8 \times 10=137200 \mathrm{~J} \\
&\triangle U=U_{f}-U_{i} \\
&\triangle U=137200-0=137200 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
Let \(W\) be the work done against friction during ascent.
Then ” – W ” is the work done by the frictional force.
\(
\begin{aligned}
&-\mathrm{W}=\Delta \mathrm{K}+\Delta \mathrm{U} \\
&-\mathrm{W}=-157500+137200 \\
&-\mathrm{W}=-20300 \mathrm{~J} \\
&\mathrm{~W}=20300 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, work done against friction is 20,300 joule.
A small block of mass \(200 \mathrm{~g}\) is kept at the top of a frictionless incline which is \(10 \mathrm{~m}\) long and \(3.2 \mathrm{~m}\) high. How much work was required (a) to lift the block from the ground and put it at the top, (b) to slide the block up the incline? What will be the speed of the block when it reaches the ground, if (c) it falls off the incline and drops vertically on the ground (d) it slides down the incline? Take \(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\).
(b) Given,
Mass of the block, \(\mathrm{m}=200 \mathrm{~g}=0.2 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Length of the incline, \(s=10 \mathrm{~m}\),
Height of the incline, \(h=3.2 \mathrm{~m}\)
Acceleration due to gravity, \(\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\)
(a) Work done, \(\mathrm{W}=\mathrm{mgh}=0.2 \times 10 \times 3.2=6.4 \mathrm{~J}\)
(b) Work done to slide the block up the incline
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{W}=(\mathrm{mg} \sin \theta) \times \mathrm{s} \\
&=(0.2) \times 10 \times(3.2 / 10) \times 10 \\
&=6.4 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
(c) Let final velocity be \(v\) when the block falls to the ground vertically.
Change in the kinetic energy = Work done
\(
\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}^{2}-0=6.4 \mathrm{~J}
\)
\(
\Rightarrow v=8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
\)
(d) Let \(v\) be the final velocity of the block when it reaches the ground by sliding.
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}-0=6.4 \mathrm{~J} \\
&\Rightarrow v=8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
\end{aligned}
\)
In a children’s park, there is a slide which has a total length of \(10 \mathrm{~m}\) and a height of \(8.0 \mathrm{~m}\) (figure below). Vertical ladder are provided to reach the top. A boy weighing \(200 \mathrm{~N}\) climbs up the ladder to the top of the slide and slides down to the ground. The average friction offered by the slide is three tenth of his weight. Find (a) the work done by the boy on the ladder as he goes up, (b) the work done by the slide on the boy as he comes down, (c) the work done by the ladder on the boy as he goes up. Neglect any work done by forces inside the body of the boy.
(a)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&l=10 \mathrm{~m}, \mathrm{~h}=8 \mathrm{~m}, \quad \mathrm{mg}=200 \mathrm{~N} \\
&f=200 \times \frac{3}{10}=60 \mathrm{~N}
\end{aligned}
\)
a) Work done by the ladder on the boy is zero when the boy is going up because the work is done by the boy himself.
b) Work done against frictional force, \(\mathrm{W}=\mu \mathrm{RS}=f \ell=(-60) \times 10=-600 \mathrm{~J}\)
c) Work done by the forces inside the boy is
\(
W_{b}=(m g \sin \theta) \times 10=200 \times \frac{8}{10} \times 10=1600 \mathrm{~J}
\)
The figure below shows a particle sliding on a frictionless track that terminates in a straight horizontal section. If the particle starts slipping from the point \(A\), how far away from the track will the particle hit the ground?
(c) Given,
Height of the starting point of the track, \(\mathrm{H}=1 \mathrm{~m}\)
Height of the ending point of the track, \(h=0.5 \mathrm{~m}\)
Let \(v\) be the velocity of the particle at the end point on the track.
Applying the law of conservation of energy at the starting and ending point of the track, we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{mgH}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m} v^{2}+\mathrm{mgh} \\
&\Rightarrow g-\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) v^{2}=0.5 \mathrm{~g} \\
&\Rightarrow v^{2}=2(\mathrm{~g}-0.5 \mathrm{~g})=\mathrm{g} \\
&\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\mathrm{g}}=3.1 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
\end{aligned}
\)
After leaving the track, the body exhibits projectile motion for which,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\theta=0 \\
&y=-0.5
\end{aligned}
\)
Using equation of motion along the horozontal direction,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&-0.5=(\mathrm{u} \sin \theta) t-\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \mathrm{gt}^{2} \\
&\Rightarrow 0.5=4.9 \times \mathrm{t}^{2} \\
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{t}=0.31 \mathrm{sec} \\
&\text { So, } \mathrm{x}=(v \cos \theta) \mathrm{t} \\
&=3.1 \times 0.31=1 \mathrm{~m}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the particle will hit the ground at a horizontal distance of \(1 \mathrm{~m}\) from the other end of the track.
A block weighing \(10 \mathrm{~N}\) travels down a smooth curved track \(A B\) joined to a rough horizontal surface (figure below). The rough surface has a friction coefficient of \(0.20\) with the block. If the block starts slipping on the track from a point \(1.0 \mathrm{~m}\) above the horizontal surface, how far will it move on the rough surface?
(d)
\(
\mathrm{mg}=10 \mathrm{~N}, \quad \mu=0.2, \quad \mathrm{H}=1 \mathrm{~m}, \mathrm{u}=\mathrm{v}=0
\)
work done = change in P.E.
Increase in K.E.
\(
\Rightarrow \mathrm{w}=\mathrm{mgh}=10 \times 1=10 \mathrm{~J}
\)
Again, on the horizontal surface the fictional force
\(
\mathrm{F}=\mu \mathrm{R}=\mu \mathrm{mg}=0.2 \times 10=2 \mathrm{~N}
\)
So, the K.E. is used to overcome friction
\(
\Rightarrow S=\frac{W}{F}=\frac{10 \mathrm{~J}}{2 \mathrm{~N}}=5 \mathrm{~m}
\)
A uniform chain of mass \(m\) and length \(l\) overhangs a table with its two-third part on the table. Find the work to be done by a person to put the hanging part back on the table.
(d) Let ‘ \(d x^{\text {‘ }}\) be the length of an element at a distance \(x\) from the table
mass of the element of \(d x\) length \(=(\mathrm{m} / l) d x\)
Work done to put \(d x\) part back on the table
\(\mathrm{dW}=(\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{l}) g \mathrm{x} \mathrm{dx}\)
So, total work done to put \(l / 3\) part back on the table
\(
\mathrm{W}=\int_{0}^{l / 3}(\mathrm{~m} / \ell) \mathrm{gx} \mathrm{dx} \Rightarrow \mathrm{W}=(\mathrm{m} / \ell) g\left[\frac{\mathrm{x}^{2}}{2}\right]_{0}^{\frac{\ell}{3}}=\frac{\mathrm{mg} \ell^{2}}{18 \ell}=\frac{\mathrm{mg} \ell}{18}
\)
A uniform chain of length \(L\) and mass \(M\) overhangs a horizontal table with its two-third part on the table. The friction coefficient between the table and the chain is \(\mu\). Find the work done by the friction during the period the chain slips off the table.
(a) Let \(x\) length of the chain be on the table at a particular instant.
Consider a small element of length ‘ \(d x\) ‘ and mass ‘ \(d m\) ‘ on the table. \(\mathrm{dm}=\frac{M}{L} \mathrm{dx}\) Work done by the friction on this element is \(\mathrm{dW}=\mu \mathrm{Rx}=\mu\left(\frac{M}{L} \times \mathrm{gx}\right) \mathrm{dx}\)
Total work done by friction on two third part of the chain,
\(W=\int_{2 L / 3}^{0} \mu \frac{M}{L} \mathrm{gx} \mathrm{dx}\)
\(
\therefore W=\mu \frac{M}{L} \mathrm{~g}\left[\frac{\mathrm{x}^{2}}{2}\right]_{0}^{2 \mathrm{~L} / 3}
\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&=-\mu \frac{M}{L} \mathrm{~g}\left[\frac{4 L^{2}}{18}\right] \\
&=-\frac{2 \mu \mathrm{MgL}}{9}
\end{aligned}
\)
The total work done by friction during the period the chain slips off the table is \(-\frac{2 \mu \mathrm{MgL}}{9}\)
A block of mass \(1 \mathrm{~kg}\) is placed at the point \(A\) of a rough track shown in the figure below. If slightly pushed towards the right, it stops at the point \(B\) of the track. Calculate the work done by the frictional force on the block during its transit from \(A\) to \(B\).
(c) Given,
Mass of the block, \(m=1 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Height of point \(\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{H}=1 \mathrm{~m}\)
Height of point \(B, h=0.8 \mathrm{~m}\)
Work done by friction \(=\) Change in potential energy of the body
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{W}_{1}=\mathrm{mgh}-\mathrm{mgH} \\
&=1 \times 10(0.8-1) \\
&=-1 \times 10 \times(0.2)=-2 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
The work done by the frictional force on the block during its transit from \(A\) to \(B\) is – 2 joule.
A block of mass \(5 \cdot 0 \mathrm{~kg}\) is suspended from the end of a vertical spring which is stretched by \(10 \mathrm{~cm}\) under the load of the block. The block is given a sharp impulse from below so that it acquires an upward speed of \(2 \cdot 0\) \(\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\). How high will it rise? Take \(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\).
(d)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{m}=5 \mathrm{~kg}, \quad \mathrm{x}=10 \mathrm{~cm}=0.1 \mathrm{~m}, \quad v=2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}, \\
&\mathrm{h}=? \quad \mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}^{2} \\
&\mathrm{~s} o, \mathrm{k}=\frac{\mathrm{mg}}{\mathrm{x}}=\frac{50}{0.1}=500 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}
\end{aligned}
\)
Total energy just after the blow \(E=1 / 2 m v^{2}+1 / 2 k x^{2} \dots(i)\)
Total energy at height \(h=1 / 2 k(h-x)^{2}+m g h \dots(ii)\)
\(1 / 2 m v^{2}+1 / 2 k x^{2}=1 / 2 k(h-x)^{2}+m g h\)
On, solving we can get,
\(
\mathrm{h}=0.2 \mathrm{~m}=20 \mathrm{~cm}
\)
A block of mass \(250 \mathrm{~g}\) is kept on a vertical spring of spring constant \(100 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\) fixed from below. The spring is now compressed to have a length \(10 \mathrm{~cm}\) shorter than its natural length and the system is released from this position. How high does the block rise? Take \(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\)
(a) Given,Mass of the block, \(\mathrm{m}=250 \mathrm{~g}=0.25 \mathrm{~kg}\),
Spring constant, \(k=100 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\)
Compression in the string, \(x=10 \mathrm{~cm}=0.1 \mathrm{~m}\),
Acceleration due to gravity, \(\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\)
Let the block rises to height \(h\).
Applying law of conservation of energy which says that the total energy should always remain conserved.
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{kx}^{2}=\mathrm{mgh} \\
&\Rightarrow h=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{\mathrm{kx}^{2}}{\mathrm{mg}}\right) \\
&=\frac{100 \times 0.01}{2 \times(0.250) \times 10} \\
&=0.2 \mathrm{~m}=20 \mathrm{~cm}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the block rises to \(20 \mathrm{~cm}\).
The figure below shows a spring fixed at the bottom end of an incline of inclination \(37^{\circ}\). A small block of mass \(2 \mathrm{~kg}\) starts slipping down the incline from a point \(4.8 \mathrm{~m}\) away from the spring. The block compresses the spring by \(20 \mathrm{~cm}\), stops momentarily, and then rebounds through a distance of \(1 \mathrm{~m}\) up the incline. Find (a) the friction coefficient between the plane and the block and (b) the spring constant of the spring. Take \(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\).
(b) Given:Mass of the block, \(\mathrm{m}=2 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Initial distance of the block from the spring, \(\mathrm{S}_{1}=4.8 \mathrm{~m}\),
Comression in the spring, \(x=20 \mathrm{~cm}=0.2 \mathrm{~m}\)
Final distance of the block from the spring, \(\mathrm{S}_{2}=1 \mathrm{~m}\)
As \(\theta=37^{\circ}\),
\(\sin 37^{\circ}=0.60=\frac{3}{5}\), \(\cos 37^{\circ}=0.80=\frac{4}{5}\)
Applying the work-energy principle for downward motion of the block,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&0-0=\mathrm{mg} \sin 37^{\circ}(\mathrm{x}+4.8)-\mu \mathrm{R} \times 5-\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{kx}^{2} \\
&\Rightarrow 20 \times(0.06) \times 5-\mu \times 20 \times(0.80) \times 5-\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{k}(0.2)^{2}=0 \\
&\Rightarrow 60-80 \mu-0.02 \mathrm{k}=0 \\
&\Rightarrow 80 \mu+0.02 \mathrm{k}=60 \ldots \text { (i) }
\end{aligned}
\)
Similarly for the upward motion of the body the equation is
\(
\begin{aligned}
&0-0=\left(-\mathrm{mg} \sin 37^{\circ}\right)-\mu \mathrm{R} \times 1+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{k}(-2)^{2} \\
&\Rightarrow 20 \times(0.06) \times 1-\mu \times 20 \times(0.80) \times 1-\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{k}(0.2)^{2} \\
&\Rightarrow 12-16 \mu+0.02 \mathrm{k}=0 \dots (ii)
\end{aligned}
\)
Adding equations (i) and (ii), we get:
\(
\begin{aligned}
&96 \mu=48 \\
&\Rightarrow \mu=0.5
\end{aligned}
\)
Now putting the value of \(\mu\) in equation (i), we get:
\(
k=1000 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}
\)
A block of mass \(m\) moving at a speed \(v\) compresses a spring through a distance \(x\) before its speed is halved. Find the spring constant of the spring.
(b) Let the velocity of the body at \(A\) be \(v\).
So, the velocity of the body at \(B\) is \(\frac{v}{2}\). Energy at point \(A=\) Energy at point \(B\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\text { So, } \frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m} v_{A}^{2}-\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \mathrm{mv}_{B}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{kx}^{2} \\
&\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2} \mathrm{kx}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m}\left(v_{A}^{2}-v_{B}^{2}\right) \\
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{kx}^{2}=\mathrm{m}\left(v^{2}-\frac{v^{2}}{4}\right) \\
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{kx}^{2}=\mathrm{m} \frac{\left(4 v^{2}-v^{2}\right)}{4} \\
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{k}=\frac{3 \mathrm{m{v^{2}}}}{4 \mathrm{x}^{2}}
\end{aligned}
\)
Consider the situation shown in the figure below. Initially, the spring is unstretched when the system is released from rest. Assuming no friction in the pulley, find the maximum elongation of the spring.
(a) Mass of the body \(=m\)
Let the elongation be \(x\)
So, \(1 / 2 k x^{2}=m g x\)
\(
\Rightarrow x=2 \mathrm{mg} / \mathrm{k}
\)
A block of mass \(m\) is attached to two unstretched springs of spring constants \(k_{1}\) and \(k_{2}\) as shown in figure below. The block is displaced towards the right through a distance \(x\) and is released. Find the speed of the block as it passes through the mean position shown.
(a) The body is displaced \(x\) towards right
Let the velocity of the body be \(v\) at its mean position Applying law of conservation of energy
\(
\begin{aligned}
1 / 2 m v^{2}=1 / 2 k_{1} x^{2}+1 / 2 k_{2} x^{2} \\ \Rightarrow m v^{2}=x^{2}\left(k_{1}+k_{2}\right) \\ \Rightarrow v^{2}=\frac{x^{2}\left(k_{1}+k_{2}\right)}{m} \\
\Rightarrow v=x \sqrt{\frac{k_{1}+k_{2}}{m}}
\end{aligned}
\)
A block of mass \(m\) sliding on a smooth horizontal surface with a velocity \(\vec{v}\) meets a long horizontal spring fixed at one end and having spring constant \(k\) as shown in the figure below. Find the maximum compression of the spring. Will the velocity of the block be the same as \(\vec{v}\) when it comes back to the original position shown?
(b) Let the compression be \(x\)
According to the law of conservation of energy
\(1 / 2 m v^{2}=1 / 2 k x^{2} \\ \Rightarrow x^{2}=m v^{2} / k \\ \Rightarrow x=v \sqrt{(m / k)}\)
b) No. It will be in the opposite direction and the magnitude will be less due to loss in spring.
A small block of mass \(100 \mathrm{~g}\) is pressed against a horizontal spring fixed at one end to compress the spring through \(5 \cdot 0 \mathrm{~cm}\) (figure below). The spring constant is \(100 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\). When released, the block moves horizontally till it leaves the spring. Where will it hit the ground \(2 \mathrm{~m}\) below the spring?
(c) Given Mass of the block, \(\mathrm{m}=100 \mathrm{~g}=0.1 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Compression in the spring, \(x=5 \mathrm{~cm}=0.05 \mathrm{~m}\)
Spring constant, \(k=100 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\)
Let \(v\) be the velocity of the block when it leaves the spring.
Applying the law of conservation of energy,
Elastic potential energy of the spring = Kinetic energy of the block
\(\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m} \nu^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{kx}{ }^{2}\)
\(\Rightarrow v=x \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{k}}{\mathrm{m}}}\)
\(=(0.05) \times \sqrt{\frac{(100)}{0.1}}\)
\(=1.58 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
For the projectile motion,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\theta=0^{\circ}, \mathrm{y}=-2 \\
&\text { Now, } \mathrm{y}=(\mathrm{u} \cdot \sin \theta) \mathrm{t}-\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{gt}^{2} \\
&-2=\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right) \times(9.8) \times \mathrm{t}^{2} \\
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{t}=0.63 \mathrm{sec}, \\
&\text { So, } \mathrm{x}=(\mathrm{u} cos \theta) \mathrm{t} \\
&=(1.58) \times(0.36)=1 \mathrm{~m}
\end{aligned}
\)
Therefore, the block hits the ground at \(1 \mathrm{~m}\) from the free end of the spring in the horizontal direction.
A small heavy block is attached to the lower end of a light rod of length \(l\) which can be rotated about its clamped upper end. What minimum horizontal velocity should the block be given so that it moves in a complete vertical circle?
(d) Let the velocity of the body at \(A\) is \(v\), for minimum velocity given at \(A\) velocity of the body at point B is zero.
Applying law of conservation of energy at \(A\) & \(B\)
\(
1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}^{2}=\mathrm{mg}(2 \ell) \Rightarrow \mathrm{v}=\sqrt{(4 \mathrm{~g} \ell)}=2 \sqrt{\mathrm{g} \ell}
\)
The figure below shows two blocks \(A\) and \(B\), each having a mass of 320 g connected by a light string passing over a smooth light pulley. The horizontal surface on which the block \(A\) can slide is smooth. The block \(A\) is attached to a spring of spring constant \(40 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\) whose other end is fixed to a support \(40 \mathrm{~cm}\) above the horizontal surface. Initially, the spring is vertical and unstretched when the system is released to move. Find the velocity of the block \(A\) at the instant it breaks off the surface below it. Take \(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\).
(b)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{m}=320 \mathrm{~g}=0.32 \mathrm{~kg} \\
&\mathrm{k}=40 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m} \\
&\mathrm{h}=40 \mathrm{~cm}=0.4 \mathrm{~m} \\
&\mathrm{~g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}
\end{aligned}
\)
From the free body diagram,
\(\mathrm{kx} \cos \theta=\mathrm{mg}\)
(when the block breaks off the surface below it then \(R=0\) )
\(\Rightarrow \cos \theta=\mathrm{mg} / \mathrm{kx}\)
So, \(\frac{0.4}{0.4+x}=\frac{3.2}{40 \times x} \Rightarrow 16 x=3.2 x+1.28 \Rightarrow x=0.1 \mathrm{~m}\)
\(
\text { So, } \mathrm{s}=\mathrm{AB}=\sqrt{(\mathrm{h}+\mathrm{x})^{2}-\mathrm{h}^{2}}=\sqrt{(0.5)^{2}-(0.4)^{2}}=0.3 \mathrm{~m}
\)
Let the velocity of the body at \(B\) be \(v\)
Change in K.E. \(=\) work done (for the system)
\(
\begin{aligned}
\left(1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}^{2}+1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}^{2}\right)=-1 / 2 \mathrm{kx}^{2}+\mathrm{mgs} \\
\Rightarrow(0.32) \times \mathrm{v}^{2}=-(1 / 2) \times 40 \times(0.1)^{2}+0.32 \times 10 \times(0.3) \\ \mathrm{v}=1.5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
\end{aligned}
\)
One end of a spring of natural length \(h\) and spring constant \(k\) is fixed at the ground and the other is fitted with a smooth ring of mass \(m\) which is allowed to slide on a horizontal rod fixed at a height \(h\) (figure below). Initially, the spring makes an angle of \(37^{\circ}\) with the vertical when the system is released from rest. Find the speed of the ring when the spring becomes vertical.
(a)
Given \(\theta=37^{\circ}, \mathrm{l}=\) natural length = \(\mathrm{h}\), Let the velocity be \(v\).
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\cos 37^{\circ}=\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{AC}}=0.8=\frac{4}{5} \\
&{AC}=(\mathrm{h}+\mathrm{x})=\frac{5 \mathrm{~h}}{4}
\end{aligned}
\)
Applying the law of conservation of energy,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{kx}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m} v^{2} \\
&\Rightarrow v=\mathrm{x} \sqrt{\left(\frac{\mathrm{k}}{\mathrm{m}}\right)}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{4} \sqrt{\left(\frac{\mathrm{k}}{\mathrm{m}}\right)}
\end{aligned}
\)
The figure below shows a light rod of length \(l\) rigidly attached to a small heavy block at one end and a hook at the other end. The system is released from rest with the rod in a horizontal position. There is a fixed smooth ring at a depth \(h\) below the initial position of the hook and the hook gets into the ring as it reaches there. What should be the minimum value of \(h\) so that the block moves in a complete circle about the ring?
(d) The minimum velocity required to cross the height point \(c=\) \(\sqrt{2 \mathrm{gl}}\)
Let the rod be released from a height \(h\).
Total energy at \(A=\) total energy at \(B\)
\(\mathrm{mgh}=1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}^{2} ; \mathrm{mgh}=1 / 2 \mathrm{~m}(2 \mathrm{~g}l)\)
[Because \(v=\) required velocity at \(B\) such that the block makes a complete circle.]
So, \(h=l\).
The bob of a pendulum at rest is given a sharp hit to impart a horizontal velocity \(\sqrt{10 g l}\), where \(l\) is the length of the pendulum. Find the tension in the string when (a) the string is horizontal, (b) the bob is at its highest point, and (c) the string makes an angle of \(60^{\circ}\) with the upward vertical.
(a) Let the velocity at \(B\) be \(v_{2}\).
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m} v_{1}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m} v_{2}^{2}+\mathrm{mg} \mathrm{l} \\
&\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m}(10 \mathrm{~gl})=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m} v_{2}^{2}+\mathrm{mgl} \\
&v_{2}^{2}=8 \mathrm{gl}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the tension in the string at the horizontal position,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{T}=\frac{\mathrm{m} v^{2}}{\mathrm{R}}=\mathrm{m} \frac{8 \mathrm{gl}}{\mathrm{l}} \\
&=8 \mathrm{mg}
\end{aligned}
\)
b) Let the velocity at \(C\) be \(v_{3}\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& 1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}_{1}^{2}=1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}_{3}^{2}+\mathrm{mg}(2 \mathrm{l}) \\
\Rightarrow & 1 / 2 \mathrm{~m}(10g l)=1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}_{3}^{2}+2 \mathrm{mgl}\\
\Rightarrow & \mathrm{v}_{3}^{2}=6 \mathrm{mgl}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the tension in the string is given by
\(
\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{c}}=\frac{\mathrm{mv}^{2}}{\mathrm{l}}-\mathrm{mg}=\frac{6 \mathrm{glm}}{\mathrm{I}} \mathrm{mg}=5 \mathrm{mg}
\)
c) Let the velocity at point \(D\) be \(v_{4}\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \text { Again, } 1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}_{1}^{2}=1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}_{4}{ }^{2}+\mathrm{mgh} \\
& 1 / 2 \times \mathrm{m} \times(10 \mathrm{gl})=1.2 \mathrm{mv}_{4}^{2}+\mathrm{mgl}\left(1+\cos 60^{\circ}\right) \\
\Rightarrow & \mathrm{v}_{4}{ }^{2}=7 \mathrm{gl}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the tension in the string is
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{D}}=\left(\mathrm{mv}^{2} / \mathrm{l}\right)-\mathrm{mg} \cos 60^{\circ} \\
&=\mathrm{m}(7 \mathrm{gl}) / \mathrm{l}-\mathrm{l}-0.5 \mathrm{mg} \Rightarrow 7 \mathrm{mg}-0.5 \mathrm{mg}=6.5 \mathrm{mg} .
\end{aligned}
\)
A simple pendulum consists of a \(50 \mathrm{~cm}\) long string connected to a \(100 \mathrm{~g}\) ball. The ball is pulled aside so that the string makes an angle of \(37^{\circ}\) with the vertical and is then released. Find the tension in the string when the bob is at its lowest position.
(c) From the figure, \(\cos \theta=A C / A B\) \(\Rightarrow A C=A B \cos \theta \Rightarrow(0.5) \times(0.8)=0.4\).
So, \(C D=(0.5)-(0.4)=(0.1) \mathrm{m}\)
Energy at \(D=\) energy at \(B\)
\(1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}^{2}=\mathrm{mg}(C D)\)
\(v^{2}=2 \times 10 \times(0.1)=2\)
So, the tension is given by,
\(\mathrm{T}=\frac{\mathrm{mv}^{2}}{\mathrm{r}}+\mathrm{mg}=(0.1)\left(\frac{2}{0.5}+10\right)=1.4 \mathrm{~N}\).
The figure below shows a smooth track, a part of which is a circle of radius \(R\). A block of mass \(m\) is pushed against a spring of spring constant \(k\) fixed at the left end and is then released. Find the initial compression of the spring so that the block presses the track with a force \(m g\) when it reaches the point \(P\), where the radius of the track is horizontal.
(a) Given, \(N=m g\)
As shown in the figure, \(\mathrm{mv}^{2} / \mathrm{R}=\mathrm{mg}\) \(\Rightarrow v^{2}=g R\)
Total energy at point \(A=\) energy at \(P\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&1 / 2 \mathrm{kx}^{2}=\frac{\mathrm{mgR}+2 \mathrm{mgR}}{2} \quad \text { [because } v^{2}=g R \text { ] } \\
&\Rightarrow x^{2}=3 \mathrm{mgR} / \mathrm{k} \Rightarrow \mathrm{x}=\sqrt{(3 \mathrm{mgR}) / \mathrm{k}}
\end{aligned}
\)
The bob of a stationary pendulum is given a sharp hit to impart it a horizontal speed of \(\sqrt{3 g l}\). Find the angle rotated by the string before it becomes slack.
(b) Suppose the string becomes slack at point \(P\).
Let the bob rise to a height \(h\).
\(
h=l+l \cos \theta
\)
From the work-energy theorem,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m} v^{2}-\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~m} u^{2}=-\mathrm{mgh} \\
&v^{2}=\mathrm{u}^{2}-2 \mathrm{~g}(\mathrm{l}+\mathrm{l} \cos \theta) \ldots(\mathrm{i})
\end{aligned}
\)
Again, \(\frac{\mathrm{m} v^{2}}{l}=\mathrm{mg} \cos \theta\)
\(
v^{2}=\lg \cos \theta \text {. }
\)
Using equation (i) and (ii) and the value of \(u\), we get,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&g l \cos \theta=3 g l-2 g l-2 g l \cos \theta \\
&3 \cos \theta=1 \\
&\theta=\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)
\end{aligned}
\)
So, angle rotated before the string becomes slack
\(
=180^{\circ}-\cos ^{-1}(1 / 3)=\cos ^{-1}(-1 / 3)
\)
A heavy particle is suspended by a \(1.5 \mathrm{~m}\) long string. It is given a horizontal velocity of \(\sqrt{57} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}/\). (a) Find the angle made by the string with the upward vertical, when it becomes slack. (b) Find the speed of the particle at this instant. (c) Find the maximum height reached by the particle over the point of suspension. Take \(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\).
Given Length of the string, \(L=1.5 \mathrm{~m}\)
Initial speed of the particle, \(\mathrm{u}=\sqrt{57} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
\text { a) } \begin{aligned}
& m g \cos \theta=m v^{2} / l \\
& v^{2}=\lg \cos \theta \dots (1)\\
& \text { change in K.E. = work done } \\
& 1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}^{2}-1 / 2 \mathrm{mu}^{2}=\mathrm{-mgh} \\
\Rightarrow & \mathrm{v}^{2}-57=-2 \times 1.5 \mathrm{~g}(1+\cos \theta) \ldots(2) \\
\Rightarrow & \mathrm{v}^{2}=57-3 \mathrm{~g}(1+\cos \theta) \\
& \text { Putting the value of } \mathrm{v} \text { from equation (1) } \\
& 15 \cos \theta=57-3 \mathrm{~g}(1+\cos \theta) \Rightarrow 15 \cos \theta=57-30-30 \cos \theta \\
\Rightarrow & 45 \cos \theta=27 \Rightarrow \cos \theta=3 / 5 . \\
\Rightarrow & \theta=\cos ^{-1}(3 / 5)=53^{\circ} \\
\text { b) } & v=\sqrt{57-3 \mathrm{~g}(1+\cos \theta)} \text { from equation (2) } \\
=& \sqrt{9}=3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec} .
\end{aligned}[/latex]
A particle slides on the surface of a fixed smooth sphere starting from the topmost point. Find the angle rotated by the radius through the particle, when it leaves contact with the sphere.
(b)Let the velocity be v when the body leaves the surface.
From the free body diagram,
\(\frac{m v^{2}}{R}=m g \cos \theta\) [normal reaction]
\(\mathrm{v}^{2}=\mathrm{Rg} \cos \theta \quad\)..(1)
Again, from the work-energy principle,
Change in K.E. = work done
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\Rightarrow 1 / 2 m v^{2}-0=m g(R-R \cos \theta) \\
&\Rightarrow v^{2}=2 g R(1-\cos \theta) \quad . .(2)
\end{aligned}
\)
From (1) and (2)
\(R g \cos \theta=2 g R(1-\cos \theta)\)
\(\begin{aligned}
&3 g R \cos \theta=2 g R \\
&\cos \theta=2 / 3 \\
&\theta=\cos ^{-1}(2 / 3)
\end{aligned}\)
A particle of mass \(m\) is kept on a fixed, smooth sphere of radius \(R\) at a position, where the radius through the particle makes an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with the vertical. The particle is released from this position. (a) What is the force exerted by the sphere on the particle just after the release? (b) Find the distance travelled by the particle before it leaves contact with the sphere.
(a) When the particle is released from rest, the centrifugal force is zero.
\(\mathrm{N}\) force \(=\mathrm{mg} \cos \theta=\mathrm{mg} \cos 30^{\circ}\)
\(
=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \mathrm{mg}
\)
b) When the particle leaves contact with the surface (fig-2), \(N=0\).
So, \(\frac{m v^{2}}{R} = m g \cos \theta\)
\(
\Rightarrow v^{2}=R g \cos \theta \quad \text {..(1) }
\)
Again, \(1 / 2 m v^{2}=m g R\left(\cos 30^{\circ}-\cos \theta\right)\)
\(
\Rightarrow v^{2}=2 \operatorname{Rg}\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}-\cos \theta\right) \quad . .(2)
\)
From equation (1) and equation (2)
\(R g \cos \theta=\sqrt{3} R g-2 R g \cos \theta\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\Rightarrow 3 \cos \theta=\sqrt{3} \\
&\Rightarrow \cos \theta=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \Rightarrow \theta=\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right)
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the distance travelled by the particle before leaving contact, \(l=R(\theta-\pi / 6)\left[\right.\) because \(30^{\circ}=\pi / 6\) ]
putting the value of \(\theta\), we get \(l=0.43 R\)
A particle of mass \(m\) is kept on the top of a smooth sphere of radius \(R\). It is given a sharp impulse which imparts it a horizontal speed \(v\). (a) Find the normal force between the sphere and the particle just after the impulse. (b) What should be the minimum value of \(v\) for which the particle does not slip on the sphere?
(c) Assuming the velocity \(v\) to be half the minimum calculated in part (b) find the angle made by the radius through the particle with the vertical when it leaves the sphere.
a) Radius \(=R\)
Horizontal speed \(=v\)
From the above diagram Fig-1:
Normal force,
\(
\mathrm{N}=\mathrm{mg}-\frac{\mathrm{m} v^{2}}{\mathrm{R}}
\)
(b) When the particle is given maximum velocity so that the centrifugal force balances the weight, the particle does not slip on the sphere.
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\text { So }, \frac{\mathrm{m} v^{2}}{R}=\mathrm{mg} \\
&\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\mathrm{gR}}
\end{aligned}\)
(c) If the body is given velocity \(v_{1}\) at the top such that,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&v_{1}=\frac{\sqrt{g R}}{2} \\
&v_{1}^{2}=\frac{g R}{4}
\end{aligned}
\)
Let the velocity be \(v_{2}\) when it loses contact with the surface, as shown below in Fig-2.
So,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\frac{\mathrm{m} v_{2}^{2}}{R}=\mathrm{mg} \cos \theta \\
&\Rightarrow v_{2}^{2}=\mathrm{Rg} \cos \theta \ldots(\mathrm{i}) \\
&\text { Again, }\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \mathrm{m} v_{2}^{2}-\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) m v_{1}^{2} \\
&=\mathrm{mgR}(1-\cos \theta) \\
&\Rightarrow v_{2}^{2}=v_{1}^{2}+2 \mathrm{gR}(1-\cos \theta) \ldots(i i)
\end{aligned}
\)
From equations (i) and (ii),
\(
\begin{aligned}
&R g \cos \theta=\left(\frac{R g}{4}\right)+2 g R(1-\cos \theta) \\
&\Rightarrow \cos \theta=\left(\frac{1}{4}+2-2 \cos \theta\right) \\
&\Rightarrow 3 \cos \theta=\left(\frac{9}{4}\right) \\
&\Rightarrow \theta=\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)
\end{aligned}
\)
The figure below shows a smooth track which consists of a straight inclined part of length \(l\) joining smoothly with the circular part. A particle of mass \(m\) is projected up the incline from its bottom. (a) Find the minimum projection speed \(v_{0}\) for which the particle reaches the top of the track. (b) Assuming that the projection speed is \(2 v_{0}\) and that the block does not lose contact with the track before reaching its top, find the force acting on it when it reaches the top. (c) Assuming that the projection speed is only slightly greater than \(v_{0}\), where will the block lose contact with the track?
a) Net force on the particle between \(A \& B, F=m g \sin \theta\)
work done to reach \(B, W=F S=m g \sin \theta l\)
Again, work done to reach \(B\) to \(C=m g h=m g R(1-\cos \theta)\)
So, Total workdone \(=\mathrm{mg}[l \sin \theta+\mathrm{R}(1-\cos \theta)]\)
Now, change in K.E. = work done
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\Rightarrow 1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}_{\mathrm{o}}^{2}=\mathrm{mg}[\ell \sin \theta+\mathrm{R}(1-\cos \theta) \\
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{o}}=\sqrt{2 g(R(1-\cos \theta)+\ell \sin \theta)}
\end{aligned}
\)
b) When the block is projected at a speed \(2 \mathrm{v}_{0}\).
Let the velocity at \(C\) will be \(V_{c}\).
Applying energy principle,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&1 / 2 m v_{c}^{2}-1 / 2 m\left(2 v_{o}\right)^{2}=-m g[l \sin \theta+R(1-\cos \theta)] \\
&\Rightarrow v_{c}^{2}=4 v_{o}-2 g[e \sin \theta+R(1-\cos \theta)]
\end{aligned}
\)
\(4.2 g[l \sin \theta+R(1-\cos \theta)]-2 g[l \sin \theta+R(1-\cos \theta)\)
\(=6 g[\ell \sin \theta+R(1-\cos \theta)]\)
So, force acting on the body,
\(
\Rightarrow N=\frac{{m v_{c}}^{2}}{R}=6 m g[(l / R) \sin \theta+1-\cos \theta]
\)
c) Let the block loose contact after making an angle \(\theta\), \(\frac{m v^{2}}{R}=m g \cos \theta \Rightarrow v^{2}=R g \cos \theta\)..(1)
Again, \(1 / 2 \mathrm{mv}^{2}=m g(R-R \cos \theta) \Rightarrow \mathrm{v}^{2}=2 g R(1-\cos \theta) \dots(2)\)
From (1) and (2) \(\cos \theta=2 / 3 \Rightarrow \theta=\cos ^{-1}(2 / 3)\)
A smooth sphere of radius \(R\) is made to translate in a straight line with a constant acceleration \(a\). A particle kept on the top of the sphere is released from there at zero velocity with respect to the sphere. Find the speed of the particle with respect to the sphere as a function of the angle \(\theta\) it slides.
(d) Suppose the sphere moves to the left with acceleration a
Let \(m\) be the mass of the particle.
The particle \(m\) will also experience inertia due to acceleration \(a\) as it is in the sphere. It will also experience the tangential inertia force
\(\left[\mathrm{m}\left(\frac{d v}{d t}\right)\right]\) and centrifugal force \(\left(\frac{m v^{2}}{R}\right)\)
From the diagram,
\(
\begin{aligned}
&m \frac{d v}{d t}=\mathrm{ma} \cos \theta+\mathrm{mg} \sin \theta \\
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{m} v \frac{d v}{d t}=\mathrm{ma} \cdot \cos \theta\left(R \frac{d \theta}{d t}\right)+\mathrm{mg} \sin \theta\left(R \frac{d \theta}{d t}\right)\left(\text { because, } v=R \frac{d \theta}{d t}\right) \\
&\Rightarrow v \mathrm{d} v=a \mathrm{R} \cos \theta \mathrm{d} \theta+\mathrm{gR} \sin \theta \mathrm{d} \theta \\
&\text { Integrating both sides, we get: } \\
&\frac{v^{2}}{2}=\mathrm{aR} \sin \theta-\mathrm{gR} \cos \theta+C \\
&\text { Given: } \\
&\theta=0, v=0 \\
&\text { So, } \\
&C=\mathrm{gR} \\
&\Rightarrow \frac{v^{2}}{2}=\mathrm{aR} \sin \theta-\mathrm{gR} \cos \theta+\mathrm{gR} \\
&\Rightarrow v^{2}=2 \mathrm{R}(a \sin \theta+g-g \cos \theta) \\
&\Rightarrow v=[2 \mathrm{R}(a \sin \theta+g-g \cos \theta)]^{1 / 2}

A trolley of mass \(200 \mathrm{~kg}\) moves with a uniform speed of \(36 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\) on a frictionless track. A child of mass \(20 \mathrm{~kg}\) runs on the trolley from one end to the other ( \(10 \mathrm{~m}\) away) with a speed of \(4 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\) relative to the trolley in a direction opposite to its motion, and jumps out of the trolley. What is the final speed of the trolley? How much has the trolley moved from the time the child begins to run?
(c) Mass of the trolley, \(M=200 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Speed of the trolley, \(v=36 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Mass of the boy, \(m=20 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Initial momentum of the system of the boy and the trolley
\(
\begin{aligned}
&=(M+m) v \\
&=(200+20) \times 10 \\
&=2200 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
\end{aligned}
\)
Let \(v^{\prime}\) be the final velocity of the trolley with respect to the ground.
Final velocity of the boy with respect to the ground \(=v^{\prime}-4\)
Final momentum \(=M v^{\prime}+m\left(v^{\prime}-4\right)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&=200 v^{\prime}+20 v^{\prime}-80 \\
&=220 v^{\prime}-80
\end{aligned}
\)
As per the law of conservation of momentum:
Initial momentum \(=\) Final momentum
\(
\begin{aligned}
&2200=220 v^{\prime}-80 \\
&\therefore v^{\prime}=2280 / 220=10.36 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
\end{aligned}
\)
Length of the trolley, \(l=10 \mathrm{~m}\)
Speed of the boy, \(v^{\prime \prime}=4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Time taken by the boy to run, \(\mathrm{t}=10 / 4=2.5 \mathrm{~s}\)
\(\therefore\) Distance moved by the trolley \(=v^{\prime} \times t=10.36 \times 2.5=25.9 \mathrm{~m}\)
A bolt of mass \(0.3 \mathrm{~kg}\) falls from the ceiling of an elevator moving down with an uniform speed of \(7 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\). It hits the floor of the elevator (length of the elevator \(=3 \mathrm{~m}\) ) and does not rebound. What is the heat produced by the impact? Would your answer be different if the elevator were stationary?
(b) Mass of the bolt, \(m=0.3 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Speed of the elevator \(=7 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Height, \(h=3 \mathrm{~m}\)
Since the relative velocity of the bolt with respect to the lift is zero, at the time of impact, potential energy gets converted into heat energy.
Heat produced = Loss of potential energy
\(=\mathrm{mgh}=0.3 \times 9.8 \times 3\)
\(=8.82 \mathrm{~J}\)
The heat produced will remain the same even if the lift is stationary. This is because of the fact that the relative velocity of the bolt with respect to the lift will remain zero.
A \(1 \mathrm{~kg}\) block situated on a rough incline is connected to a spring of spring constant 100 \(\mathrm{N} \mathrm{m}^{-1}\) as shown in the figure below. The block is released from rest with the spring in the unstretched position. The block moves \(10 \mathrm{~cm}\) down the incline before coming to rest. Find the coefficient of friction between the block and the incline. Assume that the spring has a negligible mass and the pulley is frictionless.
(d) From the above figure
\(
\begin{aligned}
&R=m g \cos \theta \\
&F=\mu R=\mu m g \cos \theta
\end{aligned}
\)
Net Force on the block down the incline
\(
\begin{aligned}
&=m g \sin \theta-F \\
&=m g \sin \theta-\mu m g \cos \theta \\
&=m g(\sin \theta-\mu \cos \theta)
\end{aligned}
\)
Here distance moved \(x=10 \mathrm{~cm}=0.1 \mathrm{~m}\)
In equilibrium
work done = Potential energy of stretched spring
\(m g(\sin \theta-\mu \cos \theta) x=\frac{1}{2} k x^{2}\)
or \(2 m g(\sin \theta-\mu \cos \theta)=k x\)
or \(2 \times 1 k g \times 10 m s^{-2}\left(\sin 37^{\circ}-\mu \cos 37^{\circ}\right)=100 \times 0.1 m\)
or \(20(0.601-\mu \times 0.798)=10\)
or \(0.601-0.798 \mu=\frac{10}{20}=0.5\)
or \(-0.798 \mu=0.5-0.601=-0.101\)
or \(\mu=-\frac{0.101}{-0.798}=\frac{101}{798}=0.126\)
Hence \(\mu=0.126\)
Two inclined frictionless tracks, one gradual and the other steep meet at A from where two stones are allowed to slide down from rest, one on each track (Fig. below). Will the stones reach the bottom at the same time? Will they reach there at the same speed? Explain. Given \(\theta_{1}=30^{\circ}, \theta_{2}=60^{\circ}\), and \(h=10 \mathrm{~m}\), what are the speeds and times taken by the two stones?
(a)
\(A B\) and \(A C\) are two smooth planes inclined to the horizontal at \(\angle \theta_{1}\) and \(\angle \theta_{2}\) respectively.
The height of both the planes is the same, therefore, both the stones will reach the bottom with same speed.
As P.E. at \(O=K . E\). at \(A=K . E\). at \(B\)
Therefore,
\(
\begin{gathered}
m g h=1 / 2 m v_{1}^{2}=1 / 2 m v_{2}^{2} \\
v_{1}=v_{2}
\end{gathered}
\)
As it is clear from fig. above, acceleration of the two blocks are
\(
a_{1}=g \sin \theta_{1},
\)
\(
a_{2}=g \sin \theta_{2}
\)
As \(\theta_{2}>\theta_{1}\)
\(
\therefore \quad a_{2}>a_{1}
\)
From \(v=u+a t\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&=0+a t \\
\Rightarrow \quad t &=v / a
\end{aligned}
\)
As \(t \propto 1 / a\), and \(a_{2}>a_{1}\)
\(
\therefore \quad t_{2}<t_{1}
\)
That is, the second stone will take lesser time and reach the bottom earlier than the first stone.
A bullet of mass \(0.012 \mathrm{~kg}\) and horizontal speed \(70 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}{ }^{-1}\) strikes a block of wood of mass \(0.4 \mathrm{~kg}\) and instantly comes to rest with respect to the block. The block is suspended from the ceiling by means of thin wires. Calculate the height to which the block rises. Also, estimate the amount of heat produced in the block.
(c) Mass of the bullet, \(\mathrm{m}=0.012 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Initial speed of the bullet, \(\mathrm{u}_{\mathrm{b}}=70 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Mass of the wooden block, \(M=0.4 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Initial speed of the wooden block, \(\mathrm{u}_{\mathrm{w}}=\mathrm{0}\)
Final speed of the system of the bullet and the block \(=\mathrm{v} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Applying the law of conservation of momentum:
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{mu}_{\mathrm{b}}+\mathrm{Mu}_{\mathrm{w}}=(\mathrm{m}+\mathrm{M}) \mathrm{v} \\
&0.012 \times 70+0.4 \times 0=(0.012+0.4) \mathrm{v} \\
&\mathrm{v}=0.84 / 0.412 \\
&=2.04 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
\end{aligned}
\)
For the system of the bullet and the wooden block:
Mass of the system, \(\mathrm{m}^{\prime}=0.412 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Velocity of the system \(=2.04 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Height up to which the system rises \(=h\)
Applying the law of conservation of energy to this system:
Potential energy at the highest point = Kinetic energy at the lowest point
\(\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{m}^{\prime} g \mathrm{~h}=(1 / 2) \mathrm{m}^{\prime} \mathrm{v}^{2} \\
&\mathrm{~h}=\frac{\mathrm{v}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{~g}} \\
&=\frac{(2.04)^{2}}{2 \times 9.8} \\
&=0.2123 \mathrm{~m} \\
&\text { The wooden block will rise to a height of } 0.2123 \mathrm{~m} . \\
&\text { The heat produced = Kinetic energy of the bullet }-\text { Kinetic energy of the system } \\
&=(1 / 2) \mathrm{mu}{ }^{2}-(1 / 2) \mathrm{m}^{\prime} \mathrm{v}^{2} \\
&=(1 / 2) \times 0.012 \times(70)^{2}-(1 / 2) \times 0.412 \times(2.04)^{2} \\
&=29.4-0.857=28.54 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}\)
A family uses \(8 \mathrm{~kW}\) of power. (a) Direct solar energy is incident on the horizontal surface at an average rate of \(200 \mathrm{~W}\) per square meter. If \(20 \%\) of this energy can be converted to useful electrical energy, how large an area is needed to supply \(8 \mathrm{~kW}\)?
(b) Compare this area to that of the roof of a typical house.
(a)
Power used by the family, \(P=8 \mathrm{~kW}\)
\(=8 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~W}\)
Solar energy received per square metre \(=200 \mathrm{~W}\)
Efficiency of conversion from solar to electricity energy \(=20 \%\)
Area required to generate the desired electricity \(=A\)
We have
\(8 \times 10^{3}=20 \% \times(A \times 200)\)
\(=(20 / 100) \times A \times 200\)
\(\therefore \quad A=8 \times 10^{3} / 40=200 \mathrm{~m}^{2}\)
(b)
The area of a solar plate required to generate \(8 \mathrm{~kW}\) of electricity is almost equivalent to the area of the roof of a building having dimensions \(14 \mathrm{~m}\) \(\times 14 \mathrm{~m} .(\approx \sqrt{200})\).
A person trying to lose weight (dieter) lifts a \(10 \mathrm{~kg}\) mass, one thousand times, to a height of \(0.5 \mathrm{~m}\) each time. Assume that the potential energy lost each time she lowers the mass is dissipated. (a) How much work does she do against the gravitational force? (b) Fat supplies \(3.8 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{~J}\) of energy per kilogram which is converted to mechanical energy with a \(20 \%\) efficiency rate. How much fat will the dieter use up?
(a) is the right option. Given,
(a) Mass of the weight, \(m=10 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Height to which the person lifts the weight, \(h=0.5 \mathrm{~m}\)
Number of times the weight is lifted, \(n=1000\)
Therefore, Work done against gravitational force,
\(
\begin{aligned}
W &=n(m g h) \\
&=1000 \times 10 \times 9.8 \times 0.5 \\
&=49 \mathrm{~kJ}
\end{aligned}
\)
(b) Energy equivalent of \(1 \mathrm{~kg}\) of fat \(=3.8 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{~J}\)
Efficiency rate \(=20 \%\)
Mechanical energy supplied by the person’s body,
\(
\begin{aligned}
E &=(20 / 100) \times 3.8 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{~J} \\
&=(1 / 5) \times 3.8 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
Equivalent mass of fat lost by the dieter,
\(
\begin{aligned}
m &=\left[1 /(1 / 5) \times 3.8 \times 10^{7}\right] \times 49 \times 10^{3} \\
&=(245 / 3.8) \times 10^{-4} \\
&=6.45 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~kg}

(b) What is the kinetic energy of the air ? (c) Assume that the windmill converts \(25 \%\) of the wind’s energy into electrical energy, and that \(A=30 \mathrm{~m}^{2}, v=36\) \(\mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}\) and the density of air is \(1.2 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-3}\). What is the electrical power produced?
(c) Area of the circle swept by the windmill \(=A\)
The velocity of the wind \(=v\)
Density of air \(=\rho\)
(a) Volume of the wind flowing through the windmill per sec \(=A v\)
Mass of the wind flowing through the windmill per \(\sec =\rho A v\)
Mass \(m\), of the wind flowing through the windmill in time \(t=\rho A v t\)
(b) Kinetic energy of air \(=(1 / 2) m v^{2}\)
\(
=(1 / 2)(\rho A v t) v^{2}=(1 / 2) \rho A v^{3} t
\)
(c) Area of the circle swept by the windmill \(=A=30 \mathrm{~m}^{2}\)
Velocity of the wind \(=v=36 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\)
Density of air, \(\rho=1.2 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-3}\)
Electric energy produced \(=25 \%\) of the wind energy
\(=(25 / 100) \times\) Kinetic energy of air

(d) Mass of the body, \(m=0.5 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Velocity of the body is governed by the equation, \(v=a x^{3 / 2}\) and \(a=5 \mathrm{~m}^{1 / 2} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\)

A trolley of mass \(300 \mathrm{~kg}\) carrying a sandbag of \(25 \mathrm{~kg}\) is moving uniformly with a speed of \(27 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\) on a
frictionless track. After a while, the sand starts leaking out of a hole on the floor of the trolley at the rate of \(0.05 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\). What is the speed of the trolley after the entire sandbag is empty?
(d) Since the hole is on the floor, that means the sand is falling vertically with respect to the trolley. Therefore there is no force in the horizontal direction hence in the horizontal direction momentum is conserved.
Let \(\mathrm{M}=\) mass of trolley
\(\mathrm{m}=\) mass of sandbag
\(\mathrm{v}_{1}=\) initial velocity
\(\mathrm{v}_{2}=\) final velocity ( to be found)
Then \(P_{1}=(M+m) V_{1}\) when the sand bag is empty the momentum is
\(
\mathrm{P}_{2}=(\mathrm{M}+0) \mathrm{v}_{2}
\)
Momentum is conserved in horizontal direction so
\(
\begin{aligned}
&P_{1}=P_{2} \\
&\Rightarrow=v_{2}=\frac{(M+m)}{M} v_{1}=\frac{300+25}{300} \times 27 \times \frac{5}{18}=8.215 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}

The bob A of a pendulum released from \(30^{\circ}\) to the vertical hits another bob \(B\) of the same mass at rest on a table as shown in the Figure below. How high does the bob A rise after the collision? Neglect the size of the bobs and assume the collision to be elastic.
(a) The bob A will not rise because when two bodies of the same mass undergo an elastic collision, their velocities are interchanged. After the collision, ball A will come to rest and bob B would move with the velocity of A. Thus bob A will not rise after the collision.
The bob of a pendulum is released from a horizontal position. If the length of the pendulum is \(1.5 \mathrm{~m}\), what is the speed with which the bob arrives at the lowermost point, given that it dissipated \(5 \%\) of its initial energy against air resistance?
(b) Let \(m\) be the mass of bob and \(I\) be the length of the string. If the potential energy of bob is taken zero at \(B\), then the potential energy of bob at A will be mgl. When bob reaches the point \(B, 5 \%\) of the potential energy is dissipated against air resistance, and the rest of \(95 \%\) is converted into kinetic energy.
\(\therefore \quad \frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}^{2}=0.95 \mathrm{mgl}\)
or
\(=\sqrt{2 \times 0.95 \times 9.8 \times 1.5}\)
\(=5.28 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
A pump on the ground floor of a building can pump up water to fill a tank of volume \(30 \mathrm{~m}^{3}\) in \(15 \mathrm{~min}\). If the tank is \(40 \mathrm{~m}\) above the ground, and the efficiency of the pump is \(30 \%\), how much electric power is consumed by the pump?
(d) Here, Volume of water \(=30 \mathrm{~m}^{3}\)
\(\mathrm{t}=15 \mathrm{~min}=15 \times 60 \mathrm{~s}=900 \mathrm{~s} ;\) Height, \(h=40 \mathrm{~m}\)
Efficiency, \(\eta=30 \%\)
Density of water \(=10^{3} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-3}\)
\(\therefore\) Mass of water pumped=Volume \(\times\) Density
\(=\left(30 \mathrm{~m}^{3}\right)\left(10^{3} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-3}\right)=3 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{~kg}\)
\(P_{\text {output }}=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{\mathrm{mgh}}{\mathrm{t}}=\frac{\left(3 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{~kg}\right)\left(10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}\right)(40 \mathrm{~m})}{900 \mathrm{~s}}\)
\(=\frac{4}{3} \times 10^{4} \mathrm{~W}\)
Efficiency, \(\eta=\frac{P_{\text {output }}}{P_{\text {input }}}\)
\(P_{\text {input }}=\frac{P_{\text {output }}}{\eta}=\frac{4 \times 10^{4}}{3 \times \frac{30}{100}}=\frac{4}{9} \times 10^{5}\)
\(
=44.4 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~W}=44.4 \mathrm{~kW} \text {. }

A molecule in a gas container hits a horizontal wall with speed \(200 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\) and angle \(30^{\circ}\) with the normal, and rebounds with the same speed. Is momentum conserved in the collision? Is the collision elastic or inelastic?
(a) Since the molecule approaches the wall of the container at a particular speed and then rebounds from the container at the same speed. Since there is no loss in the velocity due to any factor and the mass is the same. So, the momentum of the system remains conserved.
The molecule approach and rebound with the same speed. So, the kinetic energy of approach and rebound remains the same. Therefore it will be an elastic collision.
A raindrop of radius \(2 \mathrm{~mm}\) falls from a height of \(500 \mathrm{~m}\) above the ground. It falls with decreasing acceleration (due to viscous resistance of the air) until, at half its original height, it attains its maximum (terminal) speed, and moves with uniform speed thereafter. What is the work done by the gravitational force on the drop in the first and second half of its journey? What is the work done by the resistive force in the entire journey if its speed on reaching the ground is \(10 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\)?
(c) Given,Radius of the rain drop, \(r=2 \mathrm{~mm}=2 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}\)
Volume of the rain drop, \(V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}\)
\(
=\frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times\left(2 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{3} \mathrm{~m}^{-3}
\)
Density of water, \(\rho=10^{3} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-3}\)
Mass of the rain drop, \(m=\rho V\)
\(
=\frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times\left(2 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{3} \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~kg}
\)
Gravitational force, \(F=m g\)
\(
=\frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times\left(2 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{3} \times 10^{3} \times 9.8 \mathrm{~N}
\)
The work done by the gravitational force on the drop in the first half of its journey,
\(
\begin{aligned}
W_{1} &=F . s \\
&=\frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times\left(2 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{3} \times 10^{3} \times 9.8 \times 250 \\
&=0.082 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
This amount of work is equal to the work done by the gravitational force on the drop in the second half of its journey.
\(
\text { i.e., } W_{1}=0.082 \mathrm{~J}
\)
According to the law of conservation of energy,
If no resistive force is present, then the total energy of the rain drop will remain the same.
\(\therefore\) Total energy at the top,
\(
\begin{aligned}
E_{\mathrm{T}} &=m g h+0 \\
&=(4 / 3) \times 3.14 \times\left(2 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{3} \times 10^{3} \times 9.8 \times 500 \times 10^{-5} \\
&=0.164 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
Due to the presence of a resistive force, the drop hits the ground with a velocity of \(10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\).
\(\therefore\) Total energy at the ground is,
\(
\begin{aligned}
E_{G} &=(1 / 2) \mathrm{mv}^{2}+0 \\
&=(1 / 2) \times(4 / 3) \times 3.14 \times\left(2 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{3} \times 10^{3} \times 9.8 \times(10)^{2} \\
&=1.675 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
\(\therefore\) Resistive force \(=E_{G}-E_{T}=-0.1623 \mathrm{~J}\)
An electron and a proton are detected in a cosmic ray experiment, the first with kinetic energy \(10 \mathrm{keV}\), and the second with \(100 \mathrm{keV}\). Which is faster, the electron or the proton ? Obtain the ratio of their speeds. (electron mass \(=9.11 \times 10^{-31} \mathrm{~kg}\), proton mass \(\left.=1.67 \times 10^{-27} \mathrm{~kg}, 1 \mathrm{eV}=1.60 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{~J}\right)\).
(a) Here \(K_{e}=10 \mathrm{KeV}\) and \(K_{p}=100 \mathrm{keV}\)
\(m_{e}=9.11 \times 10^{-31} \mathrm{~kg}\) and \(m_{p}=1.67 \times 10^{-27} \mathrm{~kg}\)
As \(\mathrm{K}=\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}\) or \(\mathrm{v}=\operatorname{sqrt}\left(\frac{2 K}{m}\right)\)
Hence \(\frac{v_{e}}{v_{p}}=\sqrt{\frac{K_{e}}{K_{p}} \times \frac{m_{p}}{m_{e}}}=\sqrt{\frac{10 k e V}{100} k e V} \times \frac{1.67 \times 10^{-27} \mathrm{~kg}}{9.11 \times 10^{-31} \mathrm{~kg}}\) \(=13.54\)
\(
\Rightarrow v_{e}=13.54 v_{p}
\)
Thus electron is travelling faster
A body constrained to move along the z-axis of a coordinate system is subject to a constant force \(\mathbf{F}\) given by \(\mathbf{F}=-\hat{\mathbf{i}}+2 \hat{\mathbf{j}}+3 \hat{\mathbf{k}} \mathrm{N}\)
where \(\hat{\mathbf{i}}, \hat{\mathbf{j}}, \hat{\mathbf{k}}\) are unit vectors along the \(x\)-, \(y\) – and \(z\)-axis of the system respectively. What is the work done by this force in moving the body a distance of \(4 \mathrm{~m}\) along the \(z\)-axis?
(c) Force exerted on the body, \(\mathrm{F}=-\hat{\imath}+2 \hat{\jmath}+3 \hat{k} \mathrm{~N}\)
Displacement, \(\mathrm{s}=4 \mathrm{~km}\)
Work done, W = F.S
\(
\begin{aligned}
&=(-\hat{\imath}+2 \hat{\jmath}+3 \hat{k}) \cdot(4 \hat{k}) \\
&=0+0+3 \times 4 \\
&=12 \mathrm{~J}
\end{aligned}
\)
Hence, \(12 \mathrm{~J}\) of work is done by the force on the body?
A body is moving unidirectionally under the influence of a source of constant power. Its displacement in time \(t\) is proportional to
(c) Power is given by the relation:
\(P=F v\) \(=\operatorname{mav}-\mathrm{mv}(\mathrm{dv} / \mathrm{dt})=\) Constant \((\) Say, \(\mathrm{k})\) \(\therefore v d v=\frac{k}{m} d t\) Intergarit both sides \(\frac{v^{2}}{2}=\frac{k}{m} t\), \(v=\sqrt{\frac{2 k t}{m}}\)
For displacement x of the body, we have
\(
\begin{aligned}
&v=\frac{d x}{d t}=\sqrt{\frac{2 \mathrm{k}}{m}} t^{\frac{1}{2}} \\
&d x=k \prime t^{\frac{1}{2}} d t
\end{aligned}
\)
where \(k \prime=\sqrt{\frac{2 k}{3}}=\) New Constant On integrating both sides, we get:
\(
\begin{aligned}
&x=\frac{2}{3} k \prime t^{\frac{3}{2}} \\
&\therefore x \propto t^{\frac{3}{2}}
\end{aligned}
\)
A body is initially at rest. It undergoes one-dimensional motion with constant acceleration. The power delivered to it at time \(t\) is proportional to
(b) Let \(u\) be the initial velocity, a be the constant acceleration, \(P\) be the power, \(F\) be the force, \(v\) be the final velocity, \(t\) be the time, and \(m\) be the mass.
As the body is initially at rest, thus \(\mathrm{u}=0\)
According to the equation of motion, \(\mathrm{v}=\mathrm{u}+\) at \(=0+\) at \(=\) at
Force is the product of mass and acceleration \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{F}=\mathrm{ma}\)
Power is given by the product of force and velocity.
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\Rightarrow \mathrm{P}=\mathrm{Fv} \\
&\therefore \mathrm{P}=\mathrm{ma} \times \text { at }=\mathrm{ma}^{2} \mathrm{t}
\end{aligned}
\)
If mass \(\mathrm{m}\) and acceleration a is constant then, \(\mathrm{P} \alpha \mathrm{t}\)
The power delivered to it is proportional to \(t\).
State which of the following statements is true?
(d) (a) False. In an elastic collision of two bodies, the momentum and energy of the system is conserved.
(b) False. Some energy is lost in heat, so it is not conserved.
(c) False. It is true only for conservative forces. For non-conservative forces, work done over one cycle is not zero.
(d) True. Some energy is lost in internal friction and heat.
The potential energy function for a particle executing linear simple harmonic motion is given by \(V(x)=\) \(k x^{2} / 2\), where \(k\) is the force constant of the oscillator. For \(k=0.5 \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{~m}^{-1}\), the graph of \(V(x)\) versus \(x\) is shown in the figure below. A particle of total energy \(1 \mathrm{~J}\) moving under this potential must ‘turn back’ when it reaches what distance?
(c) Total energy of the particle, \(\mathrm{E}=1 \mathrm{~J}\)
Force constant, \(\mathrm{k}=0.5 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\)
Kinetic energy of the particle,
\(
\mathrm{K}=(1 / 2) \mathrm{mv}^{2}
\)
According to the conservation law: \(\mathrm{E}=\mathrm{V}+\mathrm{K} =(1 / 2) \mathrm{kx}^{2}+(1 / 2) \mathrm{mv}^{2}\)
At the moment of turn back, velocity (and hence \(\mathrm{K}\) ) becomes zero.
\(1=(1 / 2) \mathrm{kx}^{2}\)
\((1 / 2) 0.5 \mathrm{x}^{2}=1\)
\(x=\pm 2 m\)
Hence, the particle turns back when it reaches \(x=\pm 2 m\)
