Assertion : Soft steel can be made red hot by continued hammering on it, but hard steel cannot.
Reason : Energy transfer in case of soft iron is large as in hard steel.

Assertion : Mountain roads rarely go straight up the slope.
Reason : Slope of mountains are large therefore more chances of vehicle to slip from roads.

Assertion : Power of machine gun is determined by both, the number of bullet fired per second and kinetic energy of bullets.
Reason : Power of any machine is defined as work done (by it) per unit time.

Assertion : In case of bullet fired from gun, the ratio of kinetic energy of gun and bullet is equal to ratio of mass of bullet and gun.
Reason : In firing, momentum is conserved.

Q 6MCQ1 Mark
Four smooth steel balls of equal mass at rest are free to move along a straight line without friction. The first ball is given a velocity of $0.4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. It collides head on with the second elastically, the second one similarly with the third and so on. The velocity of the last ball is
  • $0.4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$
  • B
    $0.2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$
  • C
    $0.1 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$
  • D
    $0.05 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$

Q 7MCQ1 Mark
Consider elastic collision of a particle of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $u$ with another particle of the same mass at rest. After the collision the projectile and the struck particle move in directions making angles $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2$ respectively with the initial direction of motion. The sum of the angles. $\theta_1+\theta_2$, is
  • A
    $45^{\circ}$
  • $90^{\circ}$
  • C
    $135^{\circ}$
  • D
    $180^{\circ}$
