The momentum of a car moving at a constant speed in a circular track

A.

can be both positive and negative

B.

can be zero depending on its position in the track

C.

can be zero depending on its inertia in the track

D.

a centrifugal

Correct answer is C

Movement of an object in a circle with an acceleration towards its center is provided by change in velocity & centripetal force a α V α Fc

A force of 6N acts horizontally on a stationary mass of 2kg for 4s. The kinetic energy gained by the mass is _________

A.

366j

B.

240j

C.

144j

D.

90j

Correct answer is C

F = 6N, m = 2kg, t = 4s, u = 0 (stationary or at rest)

 

K.E = 1

According to kinetic molecular model, in gases

A.

The particles are closely packed together, they occupy minimum space & are usually arranged in a regular pattern

B.

The particles occur in clusters with molecules slightly farther apart

C.

The molecule are very fast apart & occupy all the space made available

D.

The particle vibrate about fixed positions and are held together by the strong intermolecular bonds between them

Correct answer is C

In kinetic molecular model, gases are energized and thus moves freely, fast as they occupy specific space

269.

The following are parts of the eye
I. Retina
II. Pupil
III. Iris
The correct equivalent in the camera in the same order are

A.

Diaphragm, Aperture, film

B.

Aperture, Diaphragm, Film

C.

Film, Diaphragm, Aperture

D.

Film, Aperture, Diaphragm

Correct answer is D

- retina is similar to film
- pupil is similar to aperture
- iris is similar to diaphragm

The earth's gravitational field intensity at its surface is about
(G = 6.7 × 10\(^{-11}\)Nm\(^2\)/kg\(^2\), mass of the earth is 6 × 10\(^{24}\)kg, radius of the earth is 6.4 × 10\(^6\)m, g on the earth = 9.8m/s\(^2\))

A.

6.7N/kg

B.

7.9N/kg

C.

8.0N/kg

D.

9.8N/kg

Correct answer is D

E = F
m
= GMm/d\(^2\)
m
= GM
d\(^2\)

 

E = 6.7 × 10\(^{-11}\) × 6 × 10\(^{24}\)
(6.4 × 10\(^6\))\(^2\)
= 9.8N
kg


E = g = 9.8N/kg
