Comprehensive Questions (slo based solution )
III. Give an extended response to the following questions .
1. 1.In a park , children are enjoying a ride on big wheel as shown . What kind of motion the big wheel has and what kind of motion the riders have ?
Ans/- The motion of wheel will be rotatory as it's moving about its
axis . The motion of riders will be circular motion as they are moving in
circular path .
2. 2.A boy moves for some time , give two situation in which his displacement is zero but covered distance is not zero ?
Ans/- The displacement covered by object will be zero if the
initial and final positions of object are same .
Example 1
Consider a person is
running around circular path . As in circular path intial and final positions
are same . Although person has covered distance but it's displacement is Zero .
Example
2
A person is moving in
straight path suddenly he reurns back to it's initial position. As it's initial
position became final as well . In this case also distance has covered but
displacement is Zero .
3. 3.A stone tied to string is whirling in circle , what is direction of its velocity at any instant ?
Ans/- The velocity will be tangent or perpendicular to centripetal
force or radius of circle .
4. 4.Is it possible to acceleration object without speeding it up for slowing it down ?
Ans /- Consider a stone tied to string is whirling in
circle. After some time the stone will be moving with uniform velocity but
velocity will change its direction with time . It's means the acceleration of
stone will also be change.
5.Can a car moving towards right have direction of acceleration towards left ?
Ans/- Yes it's possible.
Explanation
Consider a car is
moving on straight path .The direction of acceleration and velocity both will
towards right . But when driver apply brakes . Velocity will be decreased ,which
result in deceleration. In this case velocity will be towards right but
acceleration will be towards left .
6 .With the help of daily life examples, tell the situations in which .
a) acceleration is in the direction of motion
Explanation
Consider a car moving on
straight path . The direction of velocity and acceleration will be same .
b) acceleration is against the direction of
motion
Explanation
When driver applies
brakes the direction of velocity and acceleration will be opposite.
c) acceleration is zero and body is in motion
Ans/- yes , it's possible.
Explanation
Consider a body is
moving with uniform velocity. As in this case initial and final velocity of
body will be of same magnitude. So acceleration will be zero .
7 7 Examine
distance-time graph of a motorcyclist ( as shown ) , what does this graph tell
us about the speed of motorcyclist ? Plot the velocity-time graph for it ?
Ans/- It represents that a body is moving with uniform velocity (10
m/s ) .
8. Which controls in the car can produce
acceleration or deceleration in it ?
Ans/- Accelerator
produces acceleration and brakes causes deceleration.
9. If two stones of 10kg and 1kg are
dropped from a 1km high tower. Which will hit the ground with greater velocity
? Which will hit the ground first ? ( Neglect the air resistance )
Ans/- In the
absence of air resistance both body will hit the ground at the same time with
same velocity.
10. A 1kg steel ball is dropped ( from rest )
and another is thrown downward with velocity of 5 m/s .which will have greater
acceleration ? (Neglect the air resistance )
Ans/- In this case acceleration due gravity will 9.8 for both ball. As g is independent of their masses in the absence of air
