MCQ
From Newton's second law of motion, it can be inferred that
  • A
    No force is required to move a body uniformly along straight line 
  • B
    Accelerated motion is always due to an external force
  • C
    Inertial mass of a body is equal to force required per unit acceleration in the body
  • All of these

Answer

Correct option: D.
All of these
d
(d)

By Newton's second law

$\vec{F}=m \vec{a}$

for $(1)$ Uniform motion means body is moving with constant velocity. By $(i)$ it can be said that only for accelerated motion force is required

$(2)$ is true using $(i)$

$(3)$ Using $(i)$ $\vec{a}=\frac{\vec{F}}{m}$ so this is true

A ball of mass $10\, kg$ moving with a velocity $10 \sqrt{3}\, ms ^{-1}$ along $X-$axis, hits another ball of mass $20\, kg$ which is at rest. After collision, the first ball comes to rest and the second one disintegrates into two equal pieces. One of the pieces starts moving along $Y-$ axis at a speed of $10\, m / s$. The second piece starts moving at a speed of $20\, m / s$ at an angle $\theta$ (degree) with respect to the $X-$axis. The configuration of pieces after collision is shown in the figure. The value of $\theta$ to the nearest integer is
