Q. A satellite is in a circular orbit around the Earth. What is the relationship between the gravitational force and the centripetal force acting on the satellite? (2022)
A.
Gravitational force > Centripetal force
B.
Gravitational force < Centripetal force
C.
Gravitational force = Centripetal force
D.
No relationship
Solution
For a satellite in a stable orbit, the gravitational force provides the necessary centripetal force, hence they are equal.
Correct Answer:
C
— Gravitational force = Centripetal force
Q. A simple pendulum oscillates with a period of 2 seconds. What is the length of the pendulum? (2021)
A.
0.5 m
B.
1 m
C.
2 m
D.
4 m
Solution
The period T of a simple pendulum is given by T = 2π√(L/g). Rearranging gives L = (T^2 * g) / (4π^2). Using g = 9.8 m/s² and T = 2 s, we find L = (2^2 * 9.8) / (4π^2) ≈ 1 m.
Q. A solenoid has a length of 1 m and a cross-sectional area of 0.01 m². If the magnetic field inside the solenoid is 0.2 T, what is the magnetic flux through one turn of the solenoid?
A.
0.002 Wb
B.
0.01 Wb
C.
0.02 Wb
D.
0.1 Wb
Solution
Magnetic flux (Φ) = B * A = 0.2 T * 0.01 m² = 0.002 Wb. For one turn, the flux is 0.002 Wb.
Q. A solenoid produces a magnetic field similar to that of a bar magnet. What is the main factor that affects the strength of the magnetic field in a solenoid? (2021)
A.
Length of the solenoid
B.
Number of turns per unit length
C.
Material of the solenoid
D.
Current flowing through the solenoid
Solution
The strength of the magnetic field in a solenoid is primarily affected by the number of turns per unit length and the current flowing through it.
Correct Answer:
B
— Number of turns per unit length
Q. A solenoid produces a magnetic field similar to that of a bar magnet. What is the primary factor that determines the strength of the magnetic field in a solenoid? (2021)
A.
Length of the solenoid
B.
Number of turns per unit length
C.
Material of the solenoid
D.
Current flowing through the solenoid
Solution
The strength of the magnetic field in a solenoid is primarily determined by the number of turns per unit length and the current flowing through it.
Correct Answer:
B
— Number of turns per unit length
Q. A solid cylinder and a hollow cylinder of the same mass and radius are released from rest at the same height. Which one reaches the ground first? (2022)
A.
Solid cylinder
B.
Hollow cylinder
C.
Both reach at the same time
D.
Depends on the height
Solution
The solid cylinder has a lower moment of inertia, thus it accelerates faster and reaches the ground first.
Q. A solid sphere of mass M and radius R rolls without slipping down an inclined plane of height h. What is the speed of the center of mass of the sphere when it reaches the bottom? (2021)
A.
√(2gh)
B.
√(5gh/7)
C.
√(3gh/5)
D.
√(gh)
Solution
Using conservation of energy, potential energy at the top = kinetic energy at the bottom. The total kinetic energy is the sum of translational and rotational kinetic energy. Thus, v = √(5gh/7).
Q. A solid sphere of mass M and radius R rolls without slipping down an inclined plane of height h. What is the speed of the center of mass of the sphere at the bottom of the incline? (2021)
A.
√(2gh)
B.
√(3gh/2)
C.
√(gh)
D.
√(4gh/3)
Solution
Using conservation of energy, potential energy at the top = kinetic energy at the bottom. The total kinetic energy is the sum of translational and rotational kinetic energy. Thus, mgh = (1/2)mv^2 + (1/5)mv^2, leading to v = √(10gh/7).
Q. A solid sphere of radius R rolls without slipping down an incline of height h. What is its speed at the bottom of the incline? (2021)
A.
√(2gh)
B.
√(3gh)
C.
√(4gh)
D.
√(5gh)
Solution
Using conservation of energy, potential energy at the top = kinetic energy at the bottom. For a solid sphere, v = √(5gh/7). Thus, speed at the bottom is √(3gh).
