MCQ
Consider the quantities, pressure, power, energy, impulse, gravitational potential, electrical charge, temperature, area. Out of these, the only vector quantities are
  • A
    Impulse, pressure and area.
  • B
    Impulse and area.
  • C
    Area and gravitational potential.
  • D
    Impulse and pressure.

Answer

  1. Impulse and area.

Explanation:

We know that impulse J = F. $\Delta\text{t}=\Delta\text{p},$ where F is force, At is time duration and Ap is change in momentum. As $\Delta\text{p}$ is a vector quantity, hence impulse is also a vector quantity. Sometimes area can also be treated as vector direction of area vector is perpendicular to its plane.

A cubical box of side $a$ sitting on a rough table-top is pushed horizontally with a gradually increasing force until the box moves. If the force is applied at a height from the table top which is greater than a critical height $H$, the box topples first. If it is applied at a height less than $H$, the box starts sliding first. Then, the coefficient of friction between the box and the table top is
