    Practice Questions and Solutions

    Q1. Which of the following pairs of quantities have same dimensions?

    A. acceleration and angular acceleration

    B. stress and strain

    C. latent heat and specific heat

    D. momentum and impulse

    E. mass and weight

    Ans. (D) is correct choice. Momentum= mass x velocity =[MLT-1]

    Impulse=Force x time = [MLT-2] x [T]

    = [MLT-1

    ]

    Choices A, B, C and E are incorrect.

    Q2. Dimensional formula of Gravitational constant is

    A. [M-1L2T]

    B. [M-1L3T-2]

    C. [M0L3T-2]

    D. [M-1L-1T-2]

    E. [M 1 L1 T 1]

    2/17

    Ans. (B) is the correct choice,

    Gravitational constant G=F x r2/m1 x m

    Therefore dimension of G= [MLT-2][L2]/[M2]

    = [M-1L3T-2]

    Q3. Plancks constant has dimension of

    A. Energy

    B. Angular momentum

    C. Power

    D. momentum

    E. Impulse.

    Ans. (B) is the correct choice.

    Plancks constant h=E/= Energy X Time

    Dimension of h = [ML 2 T -2][T]

    = [ML 2 T -1]

    And angular momentum=Linear momentum X distance

    Therefore dimension of angular momentum= [M L T -1][L]

    = [M L 2 T 1]

    Q4. In the fig. shown above two objects are approaching some point Owith equal velocities v. What is the magnitude relative velocity of

    object 1 with respect to object 2?

  • 8/7/2019 bVQhrpracticequestions1_25_mcqs

    3/17

    (A). 2 v

    (B). 2 v

    (C). v/2

    (D). v/2

    (E). v

    Ans. (B) is the correct choice. Magnitude of relative velocity of object 1with respect to object 2 is v12= (v 2 + v 2)1/2 =2 v

    Q5.The velocity of a particle is v= 5+(x + yt), where a and b are

    constants and t is the time. The acceleration of the particle is

    (A). x

    (B). y

    (C). 0

    (D). xy

    4/17

    (E) x/y

    Ans. (B) is the correct choice.

    v = 5 + x + yt

    Acceleration dv/dt=d/dt (5 + x + yt) =y

    Q6. The following forces are acting simultaneously on a particle

    (1). (2 + 3 2k) N

    (2). (3 + 3k) N

    (3). (-5 -2 -3k) N

    So the particle will move in

    (A). X-Y Plane

    (B). X Plane

    (C). Y-Z Plane

    (D). Y Plane

    (E). X-Z Plane

    Ans. (C). is the correct choice.

    The total force acting on the particle is the sum of three forces i.e.

    F= (2 +3 -2 k) + (3 + -3 k) + (-5 -2 +k)

    F = 2-4 k

    Therefore the particle will move in Y-Z Plane.

    Options (A), (B), (D), (E) are incorrect, because F= 2 -4 k.

    is a unit vector in Y direction and k is a unit vector in Z direction. So,particle will move in Y-Z Plane.

    Q7 A projectile is fired from point O at an angle with the

    horizontal. What will be the angle between instantaneous velocity and

    acceleration at the highest point h?

    (A). 45 0

    (B). 90 0

    (C). 0 0

    (D). 180 0

    (E). 30 0

    Ans. (B) is the correct choice. At point h, acceleration is directed in thedownward direction and velocity is along the tangent at that point. So, the

    angle between the two is 90 0.

    6/17

    Hence the Options (A), (C), (D), (E) are incorrect.

    Q8. If y=a +bt +ct2, where y is in meter and t is in second. The unit of

    b is

    (A). m

    (B). s

    (C). ms -1

    (D) ms -2

    (E). m -1s -1

    Ans. (C) is the correct choice. According to dimensional analysis

    [y]= [bt]

    [L]=b [T]

    b= [L]/ [T] or unit of b=ms -1

    Q9. The above fig. shows displacement time graph of a body in a

    straight like. We can conclude from the graph that

    (A). the velocity increases uniformly

    (B). the velocity is constant.

    (C). the velocity decreases uniformly.

    (D). the body is subjected to acceleration from O to A.

    (E). the velocity of the body at A is zero

    Ans. (E) is the correct choice.

    Velocity at any point of the graph is found by drawing tangent to that point.At point A, tangent to the curve is parallel to time axis. It shows that velocity

    at A is zero.

    option (A),(B),( C),(D) are incorrect since the displacement is first

    increasing with time and then starts decreasing, so the velocity of the bodycan not increase or decrease uniformly and nor can it be constant.

    Q10. A ball is dropped from the top of a tower of height h; meters. It

    takes T seconds to reach the ground. Where is the ball at the time T/2

    second?

    (A). at h/2 meter from the ground.

    (B). at h/4 meters from the ground.

    (C). at 3h/4meter from the ground.

    (D).at h/8 meter from the ground.

    (E). at h/3 meter from the ground.

    Ans. (C) is the correct choice.

    h=ut+1/2gT2

    The ball is dropped from rest, so u=0

    So, h=1/2gT 2

    After T/2 seconds, h1=1/2g (T/2) 2

    h1=1/2g T2 /4

    h1=1/4(1/2gT 2)

    h1= h/4

    So after T/2 sec. height above the ground =h -h/4=3h/4

    Q11.Two resistances when connected in series become 6 ohms and 1

    ohm when connected in parallel. The two resistances are

    (A). 2, 4(B). 1, 5

    (C). 1, 4

    (D). 4.7 ,1.3

  • 8/7/2019 bVQhrpracticequestions1_25_mcqs

    9/17

    (E). 2.5, 3.5

    Ans. (D) is the correct choice.

    R1+R2=6

    R1 R2/R1 +R2=1

    Therefore R1 R2/6=1

    R1 R2=6

    (R1 - R2)2 = ( R1 + R2 )

    2 - 4R1 R2=36-24

    R1 - R2=2 3

    Therefore R1= 4.7R2= 1.3

    Q12. Three voltmeters A, B, C are having resistances 2R, 3R, 6R

    respectively, are connected as shown. When some potential difference is

    applied between X&Y, the voltmeter readings are V A, V B and V Crespectively. Then,

    10/17

    (A). V A = V B= V C

    (B). V A V B = V C

    (C).V A =V B V C

    (D). V A V B V C

    (E). V A V B =V C

    Ans. (A) Is the correct choice.

    From ohms law V=IR

    V A=I.2R=2IR

    The division of current in the two parallel branches will be according to the

    resistance of each branch.

    Current I B = 2/3 I

    And I C =1/3 I

    Therefore V B= I B RB =2/3 I x 3R=2 IR

    AND V C = I C RC =1/3 I x 6R=2IR

    Therefore V A= V B= V C

    Given I 1 /I 2 =1/9

    A 12/ A 2

    2 =1/9

    A 1 / A 2 =1/3

  • 8/7/2019 bVQhrpracticequestions1_25_mcqs

    17/17

    Now, I max. / I min. = (a 1 + a 2 )2 / (a 1- a 2)

    2

    = (3+1) 2/ (3-1) 2

    =16/4
