An explosion breaks a rock into three parts in a horizontal plane. Two of them go off at right angles to each other. The first part of mass 1 kg moves with a speed of 12 ms^-1 and the second part of mass 2kg moves with 8 ms^-1 speed. If the third part flies off with 4 ms^-1 speed, then its mass is

(1) 3kg
 

(2) 5kg
 

(3) 7kg
 

(4) 17kg

The potential energy of a particle in a force field is $U=\frac{A}{r^2}-\frac{B}{r},$where A and B are positive constants and r is the distance of particle from the centre of the field. For stable equilibrium, the distance of the particle is 

(1) B/2A                                     

(2)2A/B

(3)A/B                                       

(4)B/A

Two spheres A and B of masses $m_1 and m_2$ respectively collide. A is at rest initially and B is moving with velocity v along x-axis. After collision B has a velocity $\frac{v}{2}$ in a direction perpendicular to the original direction.The mass A moves after collision in the direction

(1)same as that of B

(2)opposite to that of B

(3)$\theta ={\tan }^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)to the x‐axis$

(4)$\theta ={\tan }^{-1}\left(\frac{-1}{2}\right)to the x‐axis$

The potential energy of a system increases if work is done

(1) by the system against a conservative force 

(2) by the system against a nonconservative force

(4) upon the system by a nonconservative force

Force F on a particle moving in a straight line varies with distance d as shown in the figure. The work done on the particle during its displacement of 12 m is

(a) 21 J                                                  (b) 26 J

A ball moving with velocity $2 m{s}^{-1}$ collides head on with another stationery ball of double the mass. If the coefficient of restitution is 0.5, then their velocities (in $m{s}^{-1}$) after collision will be

(2)1,1

(3)1,0.5

An engine pumps water through a hosepipe. Water passes through the pipe and leaves it with a velocity of 2 $m{s}^{-1}.$The mass per unit length of water in the pipe is 100 $kg{m}^{-1}.$What is the power of the engine?

1. 400 W                                       

2. 200 W

3. 100 W                                       

4. 800 W

A particle of mass M starting from rest undergoes uniform acceleration. If the speed acquired in time T is v, the power delivered to the particle is 

(1) $\frac{{\mathrm{Mv}}^2}{\mathrm{T}}$                                 

(2) $\frac{1}{2}\frac{{\mathrm{Mv}}^2}{{\mathrm{T}}^2}$

An explosion blows a rock into three parts. Two parts go off at right angles to each other. These two are, 1 kg first part moving with a velocity of $12 {\mathrm{ms}}^{-1}$ and 2 kg second part moving with a velocity of $8 {\mathrm{ms}}^{-1}.$ If the third part flies off with a velocity of $4 {\mathrm{ms}}^{-1},$ its mass would be 

(a) $5 \mathrm{kg}$                                           (b) $7 \mathrm{kg}$

(c) $17 \mathrm{kg}$                                          (d) $3 \mathrm{kg}$
