Q1: Let us find force of attraction between two blocks lying 1 m apart. Let the mass of each block is 40 kg.
Ans:
F = ?
m1 = 40 kg
m2 = 40 kg
d = 1 m
G = 6.67 × 10–11 Nm2kg–2
= 1.0672 x 10-7N
Q2: The gravitational force between two objects is 49 N. How much distance between these objects be decreased so that the force between them becomes double?
Ans: Let ‘r’ be the distance between the object of mass m1 and m2
Now, the distance is reduced to ‘x’ so that the force become twice, then
Dividing eq. (i) by (ii)
So, the distance must decrease by times the original distance.
Q3: Two bodies A and B having masses 2 kg and 4 kg respectively are separated by 2 m. Where should a body of mass 1 kg be placed so that the gravitational force on this body due to bodies A and B is zero?
Ans:
Mass of body a is Ma = 2 kg
Mass of body b is Mb = 4 kg
Mass of body c is Mc = 1 kg
Separation between a and b = 2 m
Let the body C be placed at a distance d from body A Gravitational force between A and C
Gravitational force between B and C is
For body C the gravitational force is 0.
Hence, FAC = FBC
d = 0.83
Q4: Calculate the force of gravitation due to a child of mass 25 kg on his mother of mass 75 kg if the distance between their centres is 1 m from each other. Given G = (20/3) × 10–11 Nm2 kg–2
Ans: Here m1 = 25 kg; m2 = 75 kg; d = 1 m;
Using,
F = 12,500 × 10–11
or F = 1.25 × 10–7 N
Q5: A ball thrown up is caught by the thrower after 4 s. With what velocity was it thrown up? How high did it go? Where was it after 3 s ? (g = 9.8 ms–2)
Ans: Since, the time of going up is the same as that of coming down, therefore, time of going up = 4/2 = 2s. Let it starts upward with velocity u.
Here
u = ?;
a = – 9.8 ms–2;
t = 2 s;
v = 0 (at the top);
s = h
Using v = u + at
or 0 = u – 9.8 × 2
or u = 19.6 ms–1
Again v2 – u2 = 2as
0 – (19.6)2 = 2 (–9.8) h
h = 19.6 m
After 2 s, it starts coming downwards (starting with u = 0). Considering downward motion,
u = 0;
a = 9.8 ms–2;
t = 3 – 2= 1s;
s = ?
= 4.9 m from top.
Q6: A sealed tin of Coca Cola of 400 g has a volume of 300 cm3. Calculate the density of the tin.
Ans: Here,
mass of tin, M = 400 g
Volume of tin, V = 300 cm3
Density of tin,
Q7: A sealed can of mass 600 g has a volume of 500 cm3. Will this can sink in water? Density of water is 1 g cm–3.
Ans: Here,
mass of can, M = 600 g
Volume of can, V = 500 cm3
Density of can,
Since, density of the can is greater than the density of water, so the can will sink in water.
Q8: A force of 200 N is applied perpendicular to its surface having area 4 square metres. Calculate the pressure.
Ans:
Thrust = 200 N
Area = 4 m2
Pressure = ?
Pressure = Thrust / Area =
= 50 Nm–2 = 50 Pa
Q9: The density of water is 1000 kg m3. If relative density of iron is 7.874, then calculate the density of iron.
Ans:
Density of water = 1000 kg/m3
Relative density (R.D.) of iron = 7.874
Using, R.D. of iron we get
Density of iron = R.D. of iron × density of water
= 7.874 × 1000 kg/m3
= 7874 kg/m3.
Q10: What is the force of gravitation between two point masses of 1 kg and 2 kg kept 1 m apart?
Ans:
m = 1 kg, m2 = 2 kg, r = 1 m
= 13.34 x 10-11N
This is an extremely small force.
Q11: A particle is thrown up vertically with a velocity of 50 m/s. (a) What will be its velocity at the highest point of its journey? (b) How high would the particle rise? (c) What time would it take to reach the highest point?
Ans:
At the highest point the velocity will be zero. Considering activity A to B
Using
= u + at
0 = 50 – 9.8 × t
t = 5.1 sec
Also v2 – u2 = 2as
02 – (50)2 = 2 (– 9.8) × s
s = 127.5 m
Q12: Weight of a girl is 294 N. Find her mass.
Ans:
W = mg
294 = m × 9.8 m
= 30 kg
Q13: How much force should be applied on an area of 1 cm2 to get a pressure of 15 Pa?
Ans:
Here,
Area, A = 1 cm2 = 10–4 m2
Pressure (P) = 15 Pa = 15 N/m2
As F = P × A
= (15 N/m2) × (10–4 m2)
= 1.5 × 10–3 N
Q14: A force of 20N acts upon a body whose weight is 9.8N. What is the mass of the body and how much is its acceleration? Given, Force = 20 N, Weight W = 9.8 N. We know, W = mg; 9.8 = m × 9.8 m = 1 kg
Ans:
We know
F = ma
20 = 1 × a
a = 20 m/s2
Q15: An object is thrown vertically upwards and reaches a height of 78.4 m. Calculate the velocity at which the object was thrown? (g = 9.8 m/s2)
Ans:
Given,
h = 78.4 m
v = 0
g = –9.8 m/s2
Now, v2 = u2 – 2gh
u = 39.2 m/s2
