Optics

This theorem is good for flat bodies which means, thickness much less than length and breadth. The theorem states that “the moment of inertia of a plana body about an axis perpendicular to its plane is equal to the sum of moments of inertia about two mutually perpendicular axes passing through the same point, lying on the plane”.

d

Completely inelastic.

1. acceleration is directly proportional to displacement. i.e., a α y
2. Periodic motion.

As the distance from the axis of rotation (r) increases, the torque also increases. When we are high on the ladder the, r is greater and so a small force in the perpendicular direction can cause a large torque. So there is a greater chance of falling.

a. Water.
b. Add sugar as soon as the coffee arrives and then wait. This is Newton’s law of cooling. Thus when sugar is added to coffee, the temperature of coffee decreases. Hence the rate of cooling also decreases.

a.

1. Momentum or impulse
2. Work, energy, torque

So the equation is wrong

a. AverageThe average energy of a molecule of an ideal gas is proportional to the absolute temperature. PV = nRT at all pressure and temperature.
b.

1. According to equipartition theorem, total energy of a system is equally distributed among various degree of freedom.
2. Mean free. a path is the mean distance traveled by the molecules between two successive collisions.

a. Material A is more ductile.
b.This is due to a phenomenon known as fatique. Due to continuous use for a long time, the elasticity of materials decreases. So they show a wrong reading.

a. Potential energy U = mgh
b. m = 60 + 20 = 80 kg;
h = 50m; g= 9.8 m/s2
U= mgh = 80 × 9.8 × 50
= 39200J

g= 1.7 m/s2, Tm = ? T= 3.5 s

a. Parallelogram law of vector addition.
b. It states that “if two vectors are represented both in magnitude and direction by the adjacent sides of a parallelogram drawn from a point, then the resultant vector is represented both in magnitude and direction by the diagonal of the parallelogram passing through the same point”.
c. Horizontal range (R). It is the horizontal distance covered by a projectile from the point of projection on the ground to the point on the ground where the projectile returns again. R = horizontal velocity x time of flight (The horizontal velocity v cosQ of the projectile will be a constant)

The above equation shows that R is maximum when sin 20 is maximum, ie., when 0 = 45°
The maximum horizontal range Rmax = $${ R }_{ max }=\frac { { u }^{ 2 } }{ g }$$

a. Acca ordering to a principle of homogeneity, the dimensions of the same fundamental quantity must be the same on both sides of the equation.

a. Hooke’s law states that within elastic limit stress is directly proportional to strain.

Consider a uniform wire suspended freely from a fixed point. The face end is subjected to a stress and strain is noted. In the above graph, stress is on Y-axis, and strain on X-axis.

In the initial stages as stress increases strain also increases linearly from 0 to A. Till A stress a brain. For the all-region AB the proportionality is lost but even in this region, the wire will partially recover its initial state.

Beyond B (B is called the elastic limit). The strain increases very rapidly and it is seen that the wire retains the law dimension’s on the removal of the force. Now its behavior is plastic.

Beyond this point, even without increasing the stress any further the wire extends and ultimately at D, it breaks. This point D is called Breakpoint or yield point.

a. A slope of a displacement-time graph (x-t) gives velocity. Velocity in the interval 0 – 5 sec.

When we draw a velocity-time graph, we get a graph as shown in the figure

ii. An area under the velocity-time graph gives displacement. Area A = 2 × 5 + 2 × 5 = 0 displacement = 0
b. Consider a body moving with uniform acceleration ‘a’. Let u be the initial velocity at a time t = 0 and v be the final velocity at time t.

But from equation (1), we get t = $$\frac { v-u }{ a }$$

a. A simple harmonic motion is special type of motion which is periodic and takes place continuously at regular intervals of time in which a body moves to and fro on a straight line about a fixed point under a restoring force which is directed always towards the fixed point and directly proportional to displacement at that instant from the fixed point.

An ideal simple pendulum is made of a heavy point mass body suspended from rigid support by an inextensible, weightless and perfectly flexible string. The body is free to oscillate in a vertical plane. When an undisturbed pendulum is in the position ‘SO’. ‘S’ is the point of suspension and ‘O’ is the center of gravity of the bob.

The position SO is the equilibrium position. If the bob is slightly pulled aside and released, the pendulum oscillates between Q and P. Q & P represents the position of a center of gravity of the bob in the displaced position during the oscillation, then the force at P is shown in the figure.

1. Weight, mg of the bob acting vertically downwards.
2. The tension along the string T.

Resolving mg we get mg sinθ and mg cosθ as shown in the figure. Here mg cosθ balances the tension and mg sinθ acts tangentially at P hence it acts as the restoring force.
Let SO = SQ = SP = L
Let OP = x
Restoring force F = mg sin θ (Restoring force tends to reduce angular displacement θ hence the ve sign).
If the displacement ‘x’ is small compared to 1 θ is small hence sinθ = θ Restoring force F = – mg θ

a. Newton’s 2nd law of motion.
b. The law state that the rate of change of linear momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and it takes place in the direction of applied force. According to the second law,

c. A man jumping out of a moving bus falls with his head forward because his body gets a forward momentum and has a tendency to continue in the state of motion (inertia of motion) so in order to land safely he should not stand stationary but continue in the state of motion by running for a while.

a. Streamline flow is defined as a flow in which all the liquid particles that pass any given point follow the same path at the same speed.

When the velocity of flow exceeds the critical velocity, the flow becomes Turbulent. The flow of a liquid is said to be turbulent flow if the speed and direction of the liquid particles passing any point change with time.

b. According to Bernoulli’s theorem, the steady flow of an ideal liquid, the total energy per unit volume remains constant throughout the flow. France by Bernoulli’s theorem, kinetic energy + potential energy + pressure energy = a constant throughout the flow

Consider the steady flow of a liquid through a nonuniform tube as shown in the figure. The pressure area of cross-section and speed at A are P1, a1, v1 and P2, a2, v2, at B. A and B are at height h1 and h2 from the horizontal. Let in time at liquid near

Total energy at A = Total energy at B Thus Bernoulli’s Theorem is proved.
