MCQ
Two solid spheres of different mass, radii and density roll down a rough inclined plane under identical situation. Their time to come down is independent of their ............
  • A
    Mass
  • B
    Radius
  • C
    Density
  • All of these

Answer

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

For rolling down an inclined plane,

$a_{c m}=\frac{g \sin \theta}{1+\frac{1}{m R^2}}$

For 5 phere of mass $m$ and radius $R, 1=\frac{2}{5} m R^2$

So, $\quad a_{c u}=\frac{g \sin 0}{1-\frac{2}{5}\left({m R^2}^2\right)}=\frac{5}{7} g \sin 0$

As acceleration of centre of mass of rolling body only depends upon angle of inclination,

So, time taken to come down, $t =\sqrt{\frac{2 L}{a_{c h}}}$

$\left(\because L=\frac{1}{2} a_{c n} t^2\right)$

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2 L \times 7}{5 g \sin \theta}}=\sqrt{\frac{14 L}{5 g \sin \theta}}$, where $L=$ length of inclined plane.

Here, $t$ is independent of mass, radius and density of spheres. Option (d) is correct.

The drawing shows a top view of a frictionless horizontal surface, where there are two indentical springs with particles of mass $m_1$ and $m_2$ attached to them. Each spring has a spring constant of $1200\  N/m.$ The particles are pulled to the right and then released from the  positions shown in the drawing. How much time passes before the particles are again side by side for the first time if $m_1 = 3.0\  kg$ and $m_2 = 27 \,kg \,?$
Two gases occupy two containers $A$ and $B$ the gas in $A$, of volume $0.10\,m ^3$, exerts a pressure of $1.40\,MPa$ and that in $B$ of volume $0.15 m ^3$ exerts a pressure $0.7\,MPa$. The two containers are united by a tube of negligible volume and the gases are allowed to intermingle. Then if the temperature remains constant, the final pressure in the container will be (in MPa)
In a Young's double slit experiment, each of the two slits $A$ and $B$, as shown in the figure, are oscillating about their fixed center and with a mean separation of $0.8 mm$. The distance between the slits at time $t$ is given by $d=(0.8+0.04 \sin \omega t) mm$, where $\omega=0.08 rad s ^{-1}$. The distance of the screen from the slits is $1 m$ and the wavelength of the light used to illuminate the slits is $6000 \mathring A$. The interference pattern on the screen changes with time, while the central bright fringe (zeroth fringe) remains fixed at point $O$.
