Q. 141. A horizontal plane supports a plank with a bar of mass m = 1.0 kg placed on it and attached by a light elastic non-deformed cord of length l0  = 40 cm to a point O (Fig. 1.35). The coefficient of friction between the bar and the plank equals k = 0.20. The plank is slowly shifted to the right until the bar starts sliding over it. It occurs at the moment when the cord deviates from the vertical by an angle θ = 30°. Find the work that has been performed by that moment by the friction force acting on the bar in the reference frame fixed to the plane.

Q. 144. Two interacting particles form a closed system whose centre of inertia is at rest. Fig. 1.36 illustrates the positions of both particles at a certain moment and the trajectory of the particle of mass m1. Draw the trajectory of the particle of mass m2  if m2  = m1/2. 

Irodov Solutions: Laws of Conservation of Energy, Momentum & Angular Momentum - 2 | I. E. Irodov Solutions for Physics Class 11 & Class 12 - JEE

Ans. As the closed system consisting two particles m 1 and of m2 is initially at rest the C.M. of the system will remain at rest. Further as m2 = m1/2, the C.M. of the system divides the line joining m1 and m2 at all the moments of time in the ratio 1 : 2.

Q. 145. A closed chain A of mass m = 0.36 kg is attached to a vertical rotating shaft by means of a thread (Fig. 1.37), and rotates with a constant angular velocity ω = 35 rad/s.

Irodov Solutions: Laws of Conservation of Energy, Momentum & Angular Momentum - 2 | I. E. Irodov Solutions for Physics Class 11 & Class 12 - JEE

Ans. First of all, it is clear that the chain does not move in the vertical direction during the uniform rotation. This means that the vertical component of the tension T balances gravity. As for the horizontal component of the tension T, it is constant in magnitude and permanently directed toward the rotation axis. It follows from this that the C.M. of the chain, the point C, travels along horizontal circle of radius p (say). Therefore we have,

Irodov Solutions for Physics Class 11 & Class 12 - JEE towards right Let us work in the frame of centre of mass. As this frame is a non-inertial frame (accelerated with respect to the ground) we have to apply a pseudo force m1 a towards left on the block m1 and m2 a towards left on the block m2

 (b) to what height h the centre of gravity of this system will rise if the initial compression of the spring Δl = 7 mg/x.

Irodov Solutions: Laws of Conservation of Energy, Momentum & Angular Momentum - 2 | I. E. Irodov Solutions for Physics Class 11 & Class 12 - JEE

Ans. (a) The initial compression in the spring Δl must be such that after burning of the thread, the upper cube rises to a height that produces a tension in the spring that is atleast equal to the weight of the lower cube.

Q. 154. Two identical buggies 1 and 2 with one man in each move without friction due to inertia along the parallel rails toward each other. When the buggies get opposite each other, the men exchange their places by jumping in the direc- tion perpendicular to the motion direction.

Find the initial velocities of the buggies v1 and v2  if the mass of each buggy (without a man) equals M and the mass of each man m.

Q. 157. A chain hangs on a thread and touches the surface of a table by its lower end. Show that after the thread has been burned through, the force exerted on the table by the falling part of the chain at any moment is twice as great as the force of pressure exerted by the part already resting on the table.

Irodov Solutions: Laws of Conservation of Energy, Momentum & Angular Momentum - 2 | I. E. Irodov Solutions for Physics Class 11 & Class 12 - JEE

Hence, the force exerted on the falling chain equals λv2 and is directed upward. Therefore from third law the force exerted by the falling chain on the table at the same instant of time becomes λv2 and is directed downward.

Since a length of chain of weight (λyg) already lies on the table the total force on the floor is (2λyg) + (λyg) = (3λyg) or the weight of a length 3y of chain.

Q. 159. A raft of mass M with a man of mass m aboard stays motionless on the surface of a lake. The man moves a distance 1' relative to the raft with velocity v'(t) and then stops. Assuming the water resistance to be negligible, find:
 (a) the displacement of the raft 1 relative to the shore;
 (b) the horizontal component of the force with which the man acted on the raft during the motion. 

Ans. (a) Since the resistance of water is negligibly small, the resultant of all external forces acting on the system “a man and a raft” is equal to zero. This means that the position of the C.M. of the given system does not change in the process of motion.

FAQs on Irodov Solutions: Laws of Conservation of Energy, Momentum & Angular Momentum - 2 - I. E. Irodov Solutions for Physics Class 11 & Class 12 - JEE

1. What is the law of conservation of energy?
Ans. The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can only be transferred or transformed from one form to another. This means that the total amount of energy in a closed system remains constant.
2. How is the law of conservation of momentum applied in physics?
Ans. The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of a system of objects remains constant if no external forces are acting on it. This principle is applied to analyze collisions and interactions between objects, allowing us to determine the final velocities or momenta of the objects involved.
3. What is the significance of the law of conservation of angular momentum?
Ans. The law of conservation of angular momentum states that the total angular momentum of a system remains constant if no external torques act on it. This law is important in understanding the motion of rotating objects and is frequently used in fields such as astrophysics and mechanics.
4. Can energy be converted from one form to another?
Ans. Yes, according to the law of conservation of energy, energy can be converted from one form to another. For example, potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy, or electrical energy can be converted into heat energy. The total amount of energy remains the same, but its form changes.
5. How does the law of conservation of momentum relate to Newton's third law of motion?
Ans. Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This law is closely related to the law of conservation of momentum because the momentum of an object is directly related to the force applied to it. When two objects interact, the forces they exert on each other are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, resulting in a conservation of momentum.
