A hydrometer sinks more in pure water than in salty water. Why?

Answer»

Answer:

The hydrometer works on the principle that a solid body DISPLACES its own weight of the LIQUID in which it floats. The hydrometer will FLOAT slightly higher in salt water because salt water is more dense that “PURE” water.

4.

If unit of velocity is equal to the velocity of light andacceleration is 10m/s square then the unit of time is,

Answer»

as VELOCITY of light is 3*10^8 m/s

acceleration=10m/s^2

we know that

acceleration=velocity/time

time=velocity/acceleration

=(m/s)/(m/s^2)

=s

therefore UNIT of time is second represented by 's'

5.

what is numerical ratio of average speed to average velocity of an object moving along a straight line path?

Answer»

average velocity=TOTAL displacement /total time taken

average speed=total distance/total time taken

since OBJECT is moving in a straight LINE therefore

distance=displacement

time is same for both the cases

therefore

avg speed=avg velocity

avg speed/avg velocity=1/1

therefore they are in the RATIO of 1:1

A lift starts from rest at t = 0 and moves upwards with constant acceleration of 5 m/s2. At t = 2 s, a boltfrom the ceiling of lift detaches and falls freely. If height of lift is 7.5 m, then the bolt hits the floor of lift at1= ns. Find the value of n. (g = 10 m/s2)​

Answer»

Answer:

Explanation:

A lift starts from rest at t = 0 and moves upwards with constant acceleration of 5 m/s2. At t = 2 s, a bolt  from the ceiling of lift DETACHES and falls freely. If height of lift is 7.5 m, then the bolt hits the FLOOR of lift at  1= ns. Find the value of n. (G = 10 m/s2)​

Lift starts from rest

u = 0 m/s

after t = 2sec

a = 5 m/s²

v = u + at = 0 + 5*2 = 10 m/s

Bolt hits the floor in n sec

Bolt initial speed = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

S = ut + (1/2)at²

=> S bolt = 0 + (1/2)(10)n²

=> S bolt = 5n²

SLift = 10n + (1/2)5n²

=> SLift = 10n + 2.5n²

S bolt + Slift = 7.5

=> 5n² + 10n + 2.5n² = 7.5

=> 7.5n² + 10n  - 7.5 = 0

=>  3n² + 4n - 3 = 0

=> n = 0.535 sec

It is difficult to lift a large stone in the earth surface but easy to lift the small one

Answer»

ANSWER:it is because as we know that ,the mass of the large stone is often more than the smaller ONE.the effect of the attraction of the earth on a BIGGER stone can be observed more than the effect of attraction of the earth on a smaller one.hence it is DIFFICULT to lift a large stone than the smaller one on the earth surface.

In covering a distance of 40 km, kamlesh takes 2 hours more than pankaj. If kamlesh doubles his speed, then he would take 1 hour less than pankaj. Then what is kamlesh's speed?

Answer»

let TIME TAKEN by pankaj be t

then time taken by KAMLESH is t+2

distance =40 km

initial speed of kamles=u

final speed of kamlesh=2u

new time taken by kamlesh=t-1

u=40/t+2

or

2u=80/t+2

also

2u=40/t-1

equating the 2 equations

80/t+2=40/t-1

t=4 hr

therefore speed of kamlesh is

u=40/t+2

=40/6

=20/3 km/hr

If unit of velocity is equal to the velocity of light and acceleration is 10m/s square then the unit of time is,

Answer»

as velocity of light is 3*10^8 m/s

acceleration=10m/s^2

we know that

acceleration=velocity/time

time=velocity/acceleration

=(m/s)/(m/s^2)

=s

therefore UNIT of time is SECOND REPRESENTED by 's'

25.

A car is travelling with a speed of 72 km/h on a straight horizontal road . it is followed by another car B which is moving with velocity of 36km/h. When the distance between them is 25m , the car A is given a deceleration of 2ms‐². After how much time will B catch up with A?

Answer»

VELOCITY of car A, v_A = 72 km/h = 72 × 5/18 = 20 m/s

velocity of car B, v_B = 36 km/h = 36 × 5/18 = 10 m/s

Distance between Car A and car B , S_0 = 25m

deceleration of car A, a_A = -2m/s²

Let after time t, car B will catch up car A.

USING relative formula,

s_{rel}=s_0+u_{rel}t+\frac{1}{2}a_{rel}t^2

when car B catches up the car B, S_{rel}=0

u_{rel}=v_A-v_B=20-10=10m/s

a_{rel}=a_A-a_B=-2-0=-2m/s^2

so, 0 = 25 + (10)t + 1/2(-2)t²

or, 25 + 10t - t² = 0

or, t² - 10t - 25 = 0

or, t = {10 ± √(100 + 25×4)}/2

or, t = (5 ± 5√2) but t ≠ (5 - 5√2)s because (5 - 5√2) is negative value and time can't be negative.

so, t = (5 + 5√2)s

The position time graph for a uniformly accerlated motion is​

Answer»

Answer:

The shapes of the POSITION versus time graphs for these two basic types of motion - constant velocity motion and accelerated motion (i.e., changing velocity) - reveal an IMPORTANT principle. The principle is that the slope of the line on a position-time graph REVEALS useful information about the velocity of the object.

28.

Why is the motion on a circular path called accerlerated​

Answer»

When a body moves along circular path then direction of motion KEEPS changing continuously.So if an ATHELETE moves with constant SPEED along circular path then velocity(speed) will not be constant because velocity is the speed in specified direction  and here direction of speed CHANGES constantly.Since the velocity changes(due to continuous CHANGE in direction )

therfore motion along circular path is said to be acclerated.

With what acceleration must the breaks be applied to stop a vehicle travelling with a speed of 40km/he in 20 seconds

Answer»

Answer:

-0.555 m/s^2

Explanation:

According to the GIVEN question,

u = initial velocity = 40 km/h = 40×1000/3600 = 11.1 m/s

t = time = 20 sec

v = FINAL velocity = 0 m/s

a = acceleration and -a = deceleration

And we are asked to find the RETARDATION or deceleration of the vehicle.

We know,

  • v = u+at

Putting the values we get

  • 0 = 11.1+ 20 a

  • 20a = -11.1

  • a = -11.1/20

  • a = - 0.555 m/s^2

Thus declaration of the vehicle should be 0.5 m/s^2 (approx) in 20 sec to stop the vehicle TRAVELING with 40 km/h .

Means acceleration should be -0.5 m/s^2.

an iron mass falls from a height of 1km on the ground.if all the energy is converted into heat, the rise of temperature of mass will be​

Answer»

LET MASS of iron ball = m

At height = 1km =1000m, 

TOTAL energy = potential energy = mgh = 1000*9.8*m = 9800m J =9.8m kJ

When all energy is converted into heat and used in raising the temperature of ball,

Specific heat of iron(s) = 0.1 kcal/kg C = 0.42 kJ/kg C 

Let change in temperature = ΔT

ms(ΔT) = mgh

⇒ms(ΔT) = 9.8m

⇒ s(ΔT) = 9.8

⇒ 0.42(ΔT) = 9.8

⇒ ΔT = 9.8/0.42 = 23.3 degree celsius

Calculate the resistance of 100 m long copper wire. The diameter of the wireis 1 mm, take rhow 1.7 x 10 power -8 ohm m.​

Answer»

ANSWER:

resistance = 40.8 OHM

Explanation:

the length = 100m

diameter = 1mm = 0.001m

radius = 0.0002m

area of CROSS section = 0.00000004π m

resistance =

(1.7 *10^-8 *100)/0.00000004 ohm

=(1.7*10^10 ) /4*10^8 ohm

=(1.7*100)/4 ohm

= 40.8 ohm

If n cap = ai cap + bj cap is perpendicular to the vector (icap + j cap) then the value of a and b may be

Answer»

GIVEN, vector N^ = a i + B j is perpendicular to the vector (i + j).

we have to find value of a and b.

we know,

when two vectors A and B are perpendicular to each other then dot product of A and B = A.B = 0

similarly, vectors n^ = (a i + b j) and (i + j) are perpendicular to each other so, (a i + b j ).(i + j) = 0

or, a + b = 0.....(1)

we know, n^ denotes unit vector.

so, MAGNITUDE of n^ = 1

or, √(a² + b²) = 1

or, a² + b² = 1 .....(2)

from equation (1),

a² + (-a)² = 1

or, 2a² = 1

or, a = ±1/√2 and then, b = -a = \mp1/√2

hence, if a = 1/√2 then, b = -1/√2

and if a = -1/√2 then, b = 1/√2

If the pressure of n moles of an ideal gas changes according to law p = p0 av, where p0 and a are positive constant. The highest temperature attained by gas is

Answer»

Answer:

  The highest temperature is proportional to the highest VOLUME of the gas during the transition from one state to another.

Explanation:

The ideal gas equation is :  P V = N R T     ---- (1)

with the usual meanings to the symbols in there.

Given P = p₀ a V          ---- (2)

that means that pressure is DIRECTLY proportional to the volume. It means that when pressure of the gas is altered, the temperature changes in such a way that both (1) and (2) are satisfied.

 So    p₀ a V * V = n R T

 =>  T = [ p₀ a /(n R)] V²

When pressure is increased, the volume is increased and the temperature is increased too. The gas absorbs energy from the ENVIRONMENT or the energy source. There is work done on the gas and there is an increase in the internal energy of the gas too.

When the gas changes from (P1, V1, T1) to (P2, V2 , T2) in such a way that T2 > T1, then T2 is the highest temperature.

    T_max = [ p₀ a /(n R) V²_max

This is the answer.
