MCQ

The position-time graphs for two students $A$ and $B$ returning from the school to their homes are shown in figure

$(A)$ $A$ lives closer to the school

$(B)$ $B$ lives closer to the school

$(C)$ $A$ takes lesser time to reach home

$(D)$ $A$ travels faster than $B$

$(E)$ $B$ travels faster than $A$

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

✓
$(A)$ and $(E)$ only
B
$(B)$ and $(E)$ only
C
$(A), (C)$ and $(E)$ only
D
$(A), (C)$ and $(D)$ only

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

$(A)$ and $(E)$ only

a
As slope of $B$ > Slope of $A$

$\therefore V_B > V_A$

Also, $t _{ B } < t _{ A }$

A sound source of frequency $170 Hz$ is placed near a wall. A man walking from a source towards the wall finds that there is a periodic rise and fall of sound intensity. If the speed of sound in air is $340\, m/s$ the distance (in metres) separating the two adjacent positions of minimum intensity is

A train moves towards a stationary observer with speed $34 m/s$. The train sounds a whistle and its frequency registered by the observer is ${f_1}$. If the train’s speed is reduced to $17\, m/s$, the frequency registered is ${f_2}$. If the speed of sound is 340 m/s then the ratio ${f_1}/{f_2}$ is

In a steady state, the temperature at the end $A$ and $B$ of $20\,cm$ long rod $AB$ are $100\,^oC$ and $0\,^oC$ respectively. The temperature of a point $9\,cm$ from $A$ is....... $^oC$

A compass needle is placed in the gap of a parallel plate capacitor. The capacitor is connected to a battery through a resistance. The compass needle:

Does not deflect.
Deflects for a very short time and then comes back to the original position.
Deflects and remains deflected as long as the battery is connected.
Deflects and gradually comes to the original position in a time that is large compared to the time constant.

A rocket is launched normal to the surface of earth, away from the Sun, along the line joining the Sun and the Earth. The Sun is $3 \times 10^5$ times heavier than the Earth and is at a distance $2.5 \times 10^4$ times larger than the radius of the Earth. The escape velocity from Earth's gravitational field is $\mathrm{ve}_{\mathrm{e}}=11.2 \mathrm{~km} \mathrm{~s} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$. The minimum initial $\left(\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{s}}\right)$ required for the rocket to be able to leave the Sun-earth system is closest to
