1.

A ball of mass m is tied up with string and rotated along a horizontal circle of radius r. At an instant, its velocity is ν, and tension in string is T, the force required for circular motion is

  • T - m v2/2

  • T + m v2/2

  • m v2/r

  • zero


2.

A dipole of dipole moment 'p' is placed in non-uniform electric field along x-axis. Electric field is increasing at the rate of 1 V m-1 then the force on dipole is

  • 0

  • 2p

  • p/2

  • p

5.

Gravitational potential of the body of mass m at a height h from surface of earth of radius R is (Take g = acceleration due to gravity at earth's surface)

  • - g(R + h )

  • - g ( R + h )

  • g  ( R + H )

  • g ( R - h )


B.

- g ( R + h )

If a point mass  'm'  is placed at a height h from surface of earth, the potential energy is

      uh-G MmR + h

            = -gR2 mR  1 + hR

           = - gR2 m R1 + hR-1                   g = GMR2

      uh- gR2 m  R - h R2

           = - gm ( R - h )

∴       V = uhm

            = - gm ( R - h )m

        V = - g ( R - h )

Assertion: Moment of inertia is always constant. 

Reason:  Angular moment is conserved that is why moment of inertia is constant.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

  • If assertion is true but reason is false.

  • If both assertion and reason are false.
