A door 1.6 m wide requires a force of 1 N to be applied at the free end to open or close it. The force that is required at a point 0.4 m distance from the hinges for opening or closing the door is

  • 1.2 N

  • 3.6 N

  • 2.4 N

  • 4 N

Two small spheres of masses M1 and M2 are suspended by weightless insulating threads of lengths L1 and L2. The spheres carry charges Q1 and Q2 respectively. The spheres are suspended such that they are in level with one another and the threads are inclined to the vertical at angles of θ1 and θ2 as shown. Which one of the following conditions is essential, if θ1 = θ2 ?

               

  • M1 ≠ M2, but Q1 = Q2

  • M1 = M2

  • Q1 = Q2

  • L1 = L2

A ball rests upon a flat piece of paper on a table top. The paper is pulled horizontally but quickly towards right as shown relative to its initial position with respect to the table, the ball

               

  1. remains stationary if there is no friction between the paper and the ball
  2. moves to the left and starts rolling backwards, i.e, to the left if there is a friction between the paper and the ball.
  3. moves forward, i.e, in the direction in which the paper is pulled.

Hence, the correct statement is/are

  • Both (1) and (2)

  • only (3)

  • only (1)

  • only (2)

The resultant of two forces acting at an angle of 120° is 10 kg-wt and is perpendicular to one of the forces. That force is

  • 103 kg-wt

  • 203 kg-wt

  • 10 kg-wt

  • 103 kg-wt


D.

103 kg-wt

Here, tan 30° = 13              13 = x10                   x = 103 kg-wt

A person is driving a vehicle at uniform speed of 5 ms-1 on a level curved track of radius 5 m. The coefficient of static friction between tyres and road is 0.1. Will the person slip while taking the turn with the same speed ? Take g = 10 ms-2.

  • A person will slip, if v2 = 5 m2s-2

  • A person will slip, if v2 > 5 m2s-2

  • A person will slip, if v2 < 5 m2s-2

  • A person will not slip, if v2 > 5 m2s-2
