MCQ
Two putty balls of equal mass moving with equal velocity in mutually perpendicular directions, stick together after collision. If the balls were initially moving with a velocity of $45\sqrt 2 \,m{s^{ - 1}}$ each, the velocity of their combined mass after collision is .................. $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{-1}$
  • A
    $45\sqrt 2$
  • $45$
  • C
    $90$
  • D
    $22.5\sqrt 2$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$45$
b
(b)Initial momentum
$\vec P = m45\sqrt 2 \;\hat i + m45\sqrt 2 \;\hat j$ $⇒$ $|\vec P| = m \times 90$
Final momentum $2m \times V$
By conservation of momentum $2m \times V = m \times 90$
$V = 45\,m/s$

Following figure shows on adiabatic cylindrical container of volume ${V_0}$ divided by an adiabatic smooth piston (area of cross-section = $A$ ) in two equal parts. An ideal gas $({C_P}/{C_V} = \gamma )$ is at pressure $P_1$ and temperature $T_1$ in left part and gas at pressure $P_2$ and temperature $T_2$ in right part. The piston is slowly displaced and released at a position where it can stay in equilibrium. The final pressure of the two parts will be (Suppose $ x$ = displacement of the piston)
