MCQ

Three objects $A, B$ and $C$ are kept in a straight line on a frictionless horizontal surface. The masses of ${A}, {B}$ and ${C}$ are ${m}, 2\, {m}$ and $2\, {m}$ respectively. $A$ moves towards ${B}$ with a speed of $9$ ${m} / {s}$ and makes an elastic collision with it. Thereafter $B$ makes a completely inelastic collision with $C.$ All motions occur along same straight line. The final speed of $C$ is $....\,{m} / {s}$

$4$
B
$6$
C
$9$
D
$3$

Answer

Correct option: A.

$4$

a
After $1^{st}$ collision

$m v_{A}=m v_{A}^{\prime}+2 m v_{B}^{\prime}$

$-1=\frac{v_{B}^{\prime}-v_{A}^{\prime}}{0-v_{A}} \Rightarrow v_{B}^{\prime}=6 m / s$

After the $2^{nd}$ collision

$2 mv _{ B }^{\prime}=(2 m + m )_{ V _{ C }}$

$\Rightarrow v _{ C }=\frac{2}{3} v _{ B }^{\prime} \Rightarrow v _{ C }=4 m / s$

A steel wire of diameter $0.5 mm$ and Young's modulus $2 \times 10^{11} N m ^{-2}$ carries a load of mass $M$. The length of the wire with the load is $1.0 m$. A vernier scale with $10$ divisions is attached to the end of this wire. Next to the steel wire is a reference wire to which a main scale, of least count $1.0 mm$, is attached. The $10$ divisions of the vernier scale correspond to $9$ divisions of the main scale. Initially, the zero of vernier scale coincides with the zero of main scale. If the load on the steel wire is increased by $1.2 kg$, the vernier scale division which coincides with a main scale division is. . . . Take $g =10 m s ^{-2}$ and $\pi=3.2$.
