HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 1

A ring of mass 200 gram is attached to one end of a light spring of force constant 100 N/m and natural length 10 cm. The ring is constrained to move on a rough wire in the shape of the quarter ellipse of the major axis 24 cm and the minor axis 16 cm with its centre at the origin. The plane of the ellipse is vertical and wire is fixed at points A and B as shown in the figure. Initially, ring is at A with other end of the spring fixed at the origin. If normal reaction of wire on ring at A is zero and ring is given a horizontal velocity of 10 m/s towards right so that it just reaches point B, then select the correct alternative (s) (g = 10 m/s2)

Detailed Solution for HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 1

∴ Spring is compressed by 2 cm at A and will be stretched by 2 cm at B.
By work-energy theorem,
Wmg + Ws + WN + Wf = Kf − Ki
0.16 + 0 + 0 + Wf = 0 - 10
Wf = -10.16

HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 3

A particle is kept at rest at the top of a sphere of diameter 42 m. When disturbed slightly, it slides down. At what height h from the bottom, the particle will leave the sphere?

Detailed Solution for HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 3


Given:
 D = 2R = 42m, R = 21m
h = R(1 − cosθ)
From the 3rd equation of motion,

v= u+ 2gh
v= 2gR(1−cosθ)  ...(1)

From the free body diagram:


When contact lost, N = 0, equation (2) becomes:

mgcosθ = 2mg(1−cosθ)
cosθ = 2−2cosθ
3cosθ = 2
cosθ = 2/3​

► 2R − h = 2R − R(1−cosθ)
► 2R − h = 2R − R(1−2/3​)
► 5R/3​ = 5/3 ​× 21 = 35m

HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 5

A uniform chain has a mass M and length L. It is placed on a frictionless table with length l0 hanging over the edge. The chain begins to slide down. The speed V with which the chain slides away from the edge is given by:

Detailed Solution for HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 5
  • Since the given chain is uniform we can find the mass of the hanging part of the chain if we define some quantity lambda as mass per unit length and then multiplying it with the length of the hanging part of the chain.
  • Also, while applying the energy conservation equation for extended bodies (like chain, etc) we need to consider the energies (both kinetic and potential) of the center of mass only. We will consider the dotted line as a reference line while applying energy equation.

HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 6

Discs, each having mass m, are attached rigidly to the ends of a vertical spring. One of the discs rests on a horizontal surface and the other produces a compression x0 on the spring when it is in equilibrium. How much further must the spring be compressed so that when the force causing compression is removed, the extension of the spring will be able to lift the lower disc off the table?

HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 7

A particle is dropped from a height h. A constant horizontal velocity is given to the particle.
Taking g to be constant every where, kinetic energy E of the particle with respect to time t is correctly shown in

Detailed Solution for HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 7
  • As the particle is projected with some velocity, therefore, its initial kinetic energy will not be zero.
  • As it moves downward under gravity then its velocity increases with time K.E. ∝ v2 ∝ t2 (As υ ∝ t) 
  • So the graph between kinetic energy and time will be parabolic in nature. 
HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 8

A pendulum of mass m and length l is suspended from the ceiling of a trolley which start with a constant acceleration a in the horizontal direction as shown in figure. The maximum angular displacement of pendulum is θ. Work done by the tension w.r.t. trolley in this time interval is

Detailed Solution for HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 8
  • Work done by tension is zero because T perpendicular to the displacement.

The free-body diagram of the pendulum with respect to the trolley is shown in figure

Free-body diagram of the pendulum bob with respect to trolley.
The forces acting on the bob are:

  • the gravity, mg
  • the pseudo force, ma
  • the tension, T

The work done by gravity, Wg = -mgl (1 − cosθ) = −mgl [2 sin2 (θ/2)]

The work done by pseudo force, Wps = ma.l sinθ

The work done by tension, Wt = 0

At the position of maximum deflection, the velocity of the bob is zero, ΔK=0ΔK=0.

Applying work-energy theorem, we get
Wg+Wps+WT=ΔK
−mg[2 sin2 (θ/2)]+ma[2sin (θ/2) cos (θ/2)] = 0
tan (θ/2) = ag or θ=2 tan−1(ag)

HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 10

A particle moves on a rough horizontal ground with some initial velocity say v0. If (3/4)th of its kinetic energy is lost due to friction in time t0 then coefficient of friction between the particle and the ground is

Detailed Solution for HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 10

3/4 th energy is lost i.e. 1/4 th kinetic energy is left.

Hence its velocity  becomes v0/2 under a retardation of μg in time t0.

HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 11

A block weighing 10 N travels down a smooth curved track AB joined to a rough horizontal surface (figure). 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 m above the horizontal surface, the distance it will moves on the rough surface is

Detailed Solution for HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 11

Let the velocity at point B be v.

By conservation of energy, mgh = (1/2 ) mv⇒ v = √(2gh​)
Now deceleration due to friction is a = μg = 0.2 g
So stopping distance, s = v2/(2a) ​= (2gh) / (0.4g) = 5 h = 5 × 1 = 5m

∵ At points B, C slope is zero,
Therefore, force acting is also zero

HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 16

The ends of a spring are attached to blocks of masses 3 kg and 2 kg. The 3 kg block rests on a horizontal surface and the 2 kg block which is vertically above it is in equilibrium producing a compression of 1 cm of the spring. The value of the length to which the 2 kg mass must be compressed, so that when it is released, the 3 kg block may be lifted off the ground is:

Detailed Solution for HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 16

We have two blocks with upper block in equilibrium. The upper block compresses the spring by 1 cm.

Therefore force by spring is equal to the weight of 2 kg block.
kx = 2g ⇒ k * 1 = 2g ⇒ k = (2g)/1 = 20 N/cm = 2000 N/m

Now let the total compression after exerting force be y. When the force is removed the upper block goes up lifting the lower block upward.
At this time the normal reaction force acting on the body becomes zero.
This means spring force will be equal to the sum of the weights of upper block and lower block.

Ky = 2g + 3g
Replacing k by 2000N/m and g by 10m/s2
2000 y = 2 * 10 + 3 * 10 = 50
⇒ y = 50/2000
⇒ y = 0.025 m = 0.025 x 100
⇒ y = 2.5 cm

Now wedge is given a horizontal acceleration  of 10 m/s2 by applying a force on the wedge, so that the block does not slip on the wedge. Then work done by the normal force in ground frame on the block in √3 seconds is

Detailed Solution for HC Verma Test: Work, Energy & Power - Question 23

Let the Normal Reaction of Wedge on the Block be 'N'.

We know,
Acceleration of Block , a = 10 m/s2
Initial velocity of block , u = 0 m/s

Using Newton's Equation of motion,
T=√3s
S = ut + (1/2) at2 = 0 + (1/2) x 10 x (√3)= 15

Work done by the Normal Force,W= N x S x cos(π/2- θ)
= N x 15 x sin(θ) = 10 x 15 = 150N

Hence, Work Done by the Normal Force in the ground Frame on the block is 150 N.
