A rectangular brick is kept on a table with a part of its length projecting out. It remains at rest if the length projected is slightly less than slightly half the total length but it falls down if the length projected is slightly more than half the total length. Give reason. |
|
Answer» Correct REASON ⇒ The weight or the Force of the Gravity of the projected part produces a torque that will tend to overturn the brick about the edge of the table while the weight of the part on the table sometimes produces a torque that will tend to restore the brick from overturning. Let us Assuming that the uniform density of the brick in the first case, the weight of projected part will be less than the weight of the part on the table. Also, the distance of the line of action of the weight of the projected part from the edge of the table is also less in COMPARISON to the other part. Thus, the overturning torque, in this case, will be less than the restoring torque. Thus, the brick remains at rest. The situation is just reverse in the second case where the overturning torque is GREATER than the restoring torque, so the brick overturns and falls. HOPE it helps. |

A body is in transitional equilibrium under the actions of coplanar forces. If the torque of these forces is zero about a point, is it necessary that it will also be zero about any other point? |
|
Answer» Answer ⇒ Yes, It is necessary, i.e., it is always necessary that the torque will be zero about any other point if the RESULTANT of the torque acting on the BODY is zero about the point. If the body will be in the Transnational Equilibrium then it will move with he constant VELOCITY thus zero acceleration at every point. By the Inertial and the EQUIVALENT Frame of the Reference ,i.e the Position of the OBSERVATIONS, it will be Zero. Note ⇒ Torque is the turning effects produced in the Body when the force is applied and the body covers some distance. Torque is the Vector Quantity and also an Vector Product or the Cross Product of two vectors. Hope it helps. |

If the sum of all the forces acting on a body is zero, is it necessarily in equilibrium? If the sum of all the forces on a particle is zero, is it necessarily in equilibrium? |
|
Answer» Answer ⇒ No, It the sum of all the FORCES acting on the body is zero then it not necessarily that the body will be in the state of the Equilibrium. Explanation⇒ The sum of all the forces acting on the body is zero then it not necessarily that the body will be in the state of the Equilibrium. For the explanation let us TAKE an example. Let us assume that the two equal and OPPOSITE forces having their line of actions at a CERTAIN distance apart act on a body, then the body in this case will remain stationary at the point but will have not have the rotation due to the torque produced. Also, we can say that If the sum of all the forces acting on a particle is zero then it is necessarily in equilibrium because there will not be a distance between anti-parallel forces. Hope it HELPS. |

|
Answer» According to question 7.7, Capacitance ( C ) = 30 цf 1 цf = 10⁻⁶ f => 30 цf = 30 * 10⁻⁶ f Inductance ( L ) = 27 mH 1 mH = 10⁻³ H => 27 mH = 27 * 10⁻³ H Charge of the conductor ( Q ) = 6 mC 1 mC = 10⁻³ C => 6 mC = 6 * 10⁻³ C We know that, ENERGY = Q² / 2C => Energy = ( 6 * 10⁻³ )² / 2 * 30 * 10⁻⁶ => Energy = 36 * 10⁻⁶ C / 60 * 10⁻⁶ F => Energy = 36 / 60 = 6 / 1 0= 0.6 J Hence energy stored is 0.6 J. This energy will be same in LATER time also as it is shared between Inductor and capacitor. |

A heavy particle of mass m falls freely near the earth's surface. What is the torque acting on this particle about a point 50 cm east to the line of motion? Does this torque produce any angular acceleration in the particle? |
|
Answer» ANSWER ⇒ The Torque acing on the Particles about the point 50 cm east to the line of the MOTION is 4.9m N-meter. where m -s the mass of the Particle. This Torque cannot produce any angular acceleration in the Particles. Explanation ⇒ For First Answer, Distance of the line of the motion (r) = 50 cm = 0.5 m. Let the mass of the Particle be m. Acceleration due to gravity(g) = 9.8 m/s² ∴ Force acting on the body = m × g = 9.8m N Now, Using the Formula, Torque = Force × Distance of the line of the motion. = 9.8 m × 0.5 = 4.9m N-m. Hence, the torque is 4.9m N-m. Second answer, This torque cannot produce any angular acceleration in the particle because there is no force in the OPPOSITE direction of the weight at 50 cm east of the line of motion. For a torque to be effective through a force, there MUST be equal and opposite non-linear force acting on the particle. Hope it HELPS. |

A ball is whirled in a circle by attaching it to a fixed point with a string. Is there an angular rotation of the ball about its center? If yes, is this angular velocity equal to the angular velocity of the ball about the fixed point? |
|
Answer» Answer ⇒ Yes, there is the ANGULAR ROTATION of the ball about its centre. The Angular Velocity of the ball about its center is equal to the angular velocity of the ball about the fixed POINT. Explanation ⇒ Yes the ball has an angular rotation about its center. If we will be noticing the POSITION of the point on the ball where it is tied with the string, we can EASILY see that it is moving about its center as its position changes. This point again comes to the same position when the ball makes a complete revolution around the fixed point. Thus the ball rotates about its center through 360° in the same time in which the ball revolves through 360° around the fixed point. Hence the angular velocity of the ball about its center is equal to the angular velocity of the ball about the fixed point. Hope it helps. |

A simple pendulum is a point mass suspended by a light thread from a fixed point. The particle is displaced towards one side and then released. It makes small oscillations. Is the motion of such a simple pendulum a pure rotation? If yes where is the axis of rotation? |
|
Answer» Answer ⇒ YES, the motion of such a simple pendulum is a pure rotation. Explanation ⇒ As we know that in a pure rotation all the particles of a body always moves in concentric CIRCLES, thus such motion of a simple pendulum is always a pure rotation but only the direction of motion reverses periodically. The axis of rotation in this case is the line perpendicular to the plane of rotation and passing through the fixed POINT where the thread of the pendulum is tied.Since the oscillations are small, for all practical purposes the movement of the BALL can be assumed on a straight line and also the motion can be taken as periodic and Simple HARMONIC motion can be assumed. Hence, we can finally say that the motion of such a simple pendulum a pure rotation. Hope it helps. |

Can an object be in pure translation as well as in pure rotation? |
|
Answer» Answer ⇒ No, The OBJECT be in pure translation as well as in pure ROTATION. Explanation ⇒ In pure translation, each particle of the body always moves in the parallel lines while in the case of the pure rotation the particles of a body always move in CONCENTRIC circles. THUS, Both the conditions cannot be TRUE at the same time. Hence, the answer is no, i.e., the object can not in Pure Rotation and Pure Transnational Motion at the same time. In Transnational motion body moves in the straight line whereas in Rotational motion body moves in the Rotational Path. Hope it helps. |

Derivation of 2rd equation of motion mathematically |
|
Answer» Before I start my discussion here I would like to state the first two laws of Newton in their most correct forms: 1)1st Law: There EXIST frames of reference with respect to which every body continues to be at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line until compelled by an external force to CHANGE that state. Such frames are called inertial frames. 2)2nd Law: In an inertial frame, if external force be applied on a body to change its dynamic state, then rate of change of momentum of the body is directly proportional to the applied force. This constant of proportionality can be taken as 1, 2, 3 or anything as the laws are not experimental but axiomatic in the purview of classical mechanics. Newton took it as 1 reducing the proportionality to equality. Now many textbooks on physics derive Newton's First Law from his Second Law in the following manner: " From Newton's second law, considering mass of the body to be a non-zero constant: |
