Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 1

A car of mass 1000 kg is moving at a velocity of 20 m/s. Suddenly, the driver applies the brakes, and the car comes to a stop in 4 seconds. What is the magnitude of the average force exerted by the brakes on the car? (Assume no external forces are acting on the car)

Detailed Solution for Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 1

Given:
Mass of the car (m) = 1000 kg
Initial velocity (u) = 20 m/s
Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
Time (t) = 4 s

Using the equation of motion: v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time, we can rearrange the equation to solve for the acceleration.

0 = 20 m/s + a * 4 s
a = -5 m/s² (negative sign indicates deceleration)

Since the car comes to a stop, its final velocity is 0 m/s. We can use Newton's second law, F = ma, where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration, to find the magnitude of the force.

F = 1000 kg * (-5 m/s²)
F = -5000 N

The magnitude of the force is 5000 N. However, since the force is acting in the opposite direction to the car's motion (deceleration), we take the magnitude as the answer.

Therefore, the correct answer is A: 5000N.

Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 2

A constant force acting on a body of mass 3 kg changes its speed from 2 m/s to 3.5 m/s in 10 second. If the direction of motion of the body remains unchanged, what is the magnitude and direction of the force?

Detailed Solution for Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 2

Given : Mass, m = 3 kg;

Initial Velocity, u = 2m/s;

Final velocity, v = 3.5 m/s

Time taken, t = 10 seconds

v = u+at

3.5 = 2 +a x 10

F = ma = 3 x 0.15 = 0.45 N

Since the applied force increase the speed of the body, it acts along the direction of motion.

Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 3

Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 8

The dimensional formula of Plancks’s constant and angular momentum are

Detailed Solution for Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 8

Planck's Constant (h)  = 6.626176 x 10-34  m2 kg/s
So, Unit of planck constant=  m2 kg/s

Dimensions =M L2 T −1   ________ (1)

Angular momentum l = mvr

Dimensions of angular momentum  =  M L T −1 L   = M  L2  T −1  _______________ (2)
From (1) and (2). 

Planck's constant and angular momentum have the same dimensions.

Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 9

Three forces 2570_image008 act on an object of mass m = 2 kg. The acceleration of the object in m/s2 is:

Detailed Solution for Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 9

Force vector follows the principle of superposition which says all the force vectors can be vectorially added if applied on one point to get the net force vector. Hence we get
F = F1 + F2 + F3 
= (-2 + 3) i + (1 - 2) j
 F = i - j = ma
Thus we get a = (i - j) /m
= (i - j) / 2

Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 10

A ball weighing 0.01kg hits a hard surface vertically with a speed of 5m/s and rebounds with the same speed. The ball remains in contact with the surface for 0.01s. The average force exerted by the surface on the ball is

Detailed Solution for Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 10

Since impulse I = F x Δt

And also Impulse I = Δp (i.e. change in linear momentum)

Change in momentum

= 0.01 x 5 – (-5)

= 0.10 N s

Impulse = 0.10 N s

Therefore 0.10 = F x 0.01

Or F = 10 N

Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 11

A machine gun has a mass of 20 kg fires 35 g bullets at the rate of 400 bullets per second with a speed of 400ms-1 .What force must be applied to the gun to keep in the position?

Detailed Solution for Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 11

To conserve the momentum each time a single bullet is fired,
the reverse speed gained by the gun from one bullet is 
V = 400 X .035 / 20
= 0.7 m/s
Thus total speed gained in a second is = 0.7 X 400 = 280 m/s
As total speed is gained in one second only the acceleration produced = 280 m/s2
Thus total force applied on the gun by the bullets = 20 x 280 
= 5600 N

Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 12

A block of mass 2 kg is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. A force of 8 N is applied to the block horizontally for 5 seconds. What is the final velocity of the block?

Detailed Solution for Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 12

Given:
Mass of the block (m) = 2 kg
Force applied (F) = 8 N
Time (t) = 5 s

Since no external forces are acting on the block other than the applied force, the net force is equal to the applied force. Using Newton's second law, F = ma, where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration.

8 N = 2 kg * a
a = 4 m/s²

Now, we can use the equation of motion: v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity (which is 0 m/s), a is the acceleration, and t is the time.

v = 0 + 4 m/s² * 5 s
v = 20 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the block is 20 m/s.

Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 13

Two masses are in the ratio 1:5. What is ratio of their inertia?

Detailed Solution for Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 13

Force of inertia = ma

Let the masses be 1x and 5x

Force of inertia for 1st body= 1x * a

Force of inertia for 2nd = 5x * a

Ratio= x * a / 5x * a = 1:5

Additional Information: The inability of a body to change it’s state of rest or uniform motion is called inertia.

Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 14

A 6 kg object is subject to three forces
F1 = 20+ 30j N
F2 = 8i - 50j N
F3 = 2i + 2j N
Find the acceleration of object.

Detailed Solution for Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 14

F = F1 + F2 + F3 = ( 20i + 30j) N+(8i - 50j) N+(2i +2 j) N

=(20+8+2)i+(30-50+2)j

F=30i - 18j

F = ma

Substituting F and m = 6 kg (given) in the above equation we get,

30i - 18j = 6*a

A = 5i - 3j

Hence (b) is correct choice

Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 15

An object of mass 5 kg is initially moving with a velocity of 10 m/s. An unbalanced force of 30 N is applied to the object in the opposite direction of its motion. Calculate the acceleration of the object.

Detailed Solution for Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 15

To calculate the acceleration of the object, we can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that the force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration.

Given:
Mass of the object (m) = 5 kg
Initial velocity (u) = 10 m/s
Force applied (F) = -30 N (opposite direction of motion)

Using Newton's second law, F = ma,
we can rearrange the equation to solve for acceleration (a).
-30 N = 5 kg * a
a = -6 m/s2 (negative sign indicates the opposite direction)

Therefore, the acceleration of the object is 6 m/s2 in the opposite direction of its initial motion.

The correct answer is a) 6 m/s2.

Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 17

How is inertia used when riding a bicycle?

Detailed Solution for Test: Laws of Motion I - Question 17
  • Newton’s first law of inertia states that an object at rest or in motion tends to stay at rest or moving with constant motion unless enacted upon by an unbalanced force. 

  • The law of inertia relates to the sport of cycling due to the fact that the cyclist is in constant motion when on the cycle. 

  • The motion of the bike is caused by the rider pressing down upon the pedals, which, in turn, enables the rider to accelerate on the bike. 

  • As well, the cyclist will continue to move unless enacted upon by an opposing unbalanced force, such as the force of friction on the bike tires, when the bike decelerates to a stop. 

  • The Law of Inertia is also displayed when the cyclist begins to move on the bicycle from a stop. 

  • The action is related to the concept of Inertia for the reason that the cyclist is applying an unbalanced force to the bicycle pedals when not in motion. As a result, the bicycle would gain acceleration and therefore begin to move.

Therefore the correct answer is B.
