If the dimensions of a physical quantity are given by [MxLyTz], then the physical quantity shall be

  1. Work if x = 1, y = 2, z = - 2

  2. Pressure if x = 1, y = - 1, z = 2

  3. Velocity if x = 0, y = 0, z = - 1

  4. Acceleration if x = 1, y = 1, z = - 2

  5. Acceleration if x = 1, y = 1, z = 0

Work = force × displacement = mass × acceleration × displacement = [M][LT - 2][L] = [ML2T - 2] = [M x LyTz]... x = 1, y = 2, z  = - 2.

The current gain (β) of a transistor in common emitter mode is 10. If the change in collector current is by 50mA at constant VCE, the necessary change in the base current is

  1. 0.5mA

  2. 5mA

  3. 50mA

  4. 5A

Correct Option: B
Explanation:

By definition , β = (∆IC / ∆IB) at constant VCE, therefore , ∆IB = ∆IC / β = 50/10 = 5mA.

Bullets of mass 0.02 kg each, hit a plate at the rate of 300 bullets per second with a velocity of 50 ms-1 and reflect back with a velocity of 20 ms-1. The average force (in newton) acting on the plate is

  1. 420

  2. 480

  3. 180

  4. 222

  5. 360


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Change of momentum of one bullet = m(v - u) = 0.02Χ[50 - ( - 20)] = 1.4 kg ms-1Average force = rate of change of momentum of 300 bullets = 300 Χ 1.4 = 420 N

The momentum of a body is increased by 25%. The kinetic energy is increased by about ______.

  1. 34%

  2. 56%

  3. 65%

  4. 5%

  5. 23%


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Kinetic energy of body is K = p2/2m Where p is the momentum and m is the mass of a body respectively ... k proportional to p2 When the momentum of a body is increased by 25%, its momentum will become P' = p + (25/100)p = (125/100)p = (5/4)p ... k'/k = p' 2/p2 = (5/4)2 = 25/16 or k' = (25/16)k Percentage increase in the kinetic energy of the body = (k ' -k)/k = {(25/16)k - k}/k= (9/16) Χ 100 = 56%

A semi-circular arc of radius r is charged uniformly and the charge per unit length is λ. The electric field at its centre is

  1. λ/2πє0r2

  2. λ/4πє0r2

  3. λ/3πє0r

  4. λ/2π є0r

  5. λ/21π є0r


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Electric intensity at centre O, due to small element dl of the charged ring dE = λ dl / 4πє0r2 = λ(a dӨ) / 4πє0r2.  As is clear from figure, horizontal components of dE will cancel out in pairs and vertical components will add. π π ... E = ∫dE sinӨ = ∫ λ / 4πє0r (sinӨ dӨ) 0 0 π = λ / 4πє0r [ - cos Ө] o dl dE E = λ / 4πє0r ( - cosπ + cos0) = λ / 2π є0r.

Two electric lines of force intersect each other.

  1. True

  2. False

  3. May be true

  4. May be false

  5. None of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Two electric lines of force never intersect, because in that case at the point of intersection, there will be two tangents and hence, there would be two values of the electric field at that point, which is impossible. So, this is a correct option.

A man climbs up and a monkey climbs down a rope hanging from a tree with same uniform acceleration separately. If the respective masses of monkey and man are in the ratio 3 : 2, the common acceleration must be

  1. 7/g

  2. 5g

  3. g/9

  4. g/5

  5. g/11


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Let T be the tension of a rope. When man climbs up with acceleration a, ... T - m1g = m1a …(1) When a monkey climbs down with same acceleration a ... m2g - T = m2a ….(2) Adding (i) and (ii), we get (m2 - m1)g = (m1 + m2)a Or (1 - m1 / m2)g = (m1 / m2 + 1)a Or (1 - 2 / 3)g = (2 / 3 + 1)a Or (1 / 3)g = (5 / 3)a Or, a = g / 5. Clearly, it is not equal to 5g, hence it is a wrong option.

A string over a smooth massless pulley connects two blocks of masses m1 & m2 (vertically). If the acceleration of the system is (g/10), then the ratio of masses is

  1. 8 : 1

  2. 9 : 7

  3. 11 : 9

  4. 3 : 5

  5. 5 : 3


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The acceleration of the system is The acceleration of the system is a = (m1 - m2)g / (m1 + m2) = g / 10 (m1 - m2) / (m1 + m2) = 1 / 10 10m1 - 10m2 = m1 + m2 9m1 = 11m2 m1 / m2 = 11 / 9

In a rocket of mass 3000kg, fuel is consumed at a rate of 40 kg s-1. The velocity of gases ejected from rocket is 4 x 104 ms-1. The thrust on the rocket is_____.

  1. 2 x 106N

  2. 16 x 106N

  3. 1.6 x 106N

  4. 1.0 x 106N

  5. 5.6 x 106N


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Thrust, F = u(dm/dt) = 4 Χ 10Χ 40 = 1.6 Χ 106N

The power of a water pump is 1 kW. If g = 10 ms-2, the amount of water it can raise in one minute to a height of 15 m is

  1. 400 litre

  2. 2000 litre

  3. 1500 litre

  4. 300 litre

  5. 100 litre


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

P = mgh / t or m = (p Χ t) / (g Χ h) m = (1000W Χ 60s) / (10 ms-2 Χ15 m) = 400 kg = 400 litre.

When a simple pendulum is made to oscillate on the surface of moon, the time period_______.

  1. decreases

  2. increases

  3. remains constant

  4. either increases or decreases

  5. none of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The time period of simple pendulum is given by T = 2π√(L / g). On the moon, g is much smaller as compared to g on earth. Therefore, T increases.
