Read the instructions before answering the questions. The symbols used in questions have their usual meanings. Number to the right side denotes full mark in the question. Answer the tick marked questions only. Answer to the point. There will be negative marks for irrelevant writing. If you think that there is an error in a question, write down why you think the question is erroneous. This will give you full marks for that question. Q 1. Prove = dL . dt 3 Q 2. Prove = I . 3 Q 3. A 25 kg boy is running up to a slide that is inclined at an angle of 300 to the horizontal surface. The co-ecient of friction between the boys shoe sole and the surface of the slide is . Draw a diagram to show the direction of all the forces acting on the boy when he is running up. 2 Q 4. A car of mass 2000 kg slides down through a slope of 200 due to gravity. There is a frictional force between the tyres and the path. The car is moving at a speed of 2.0 m/s. With a diagram show the direction of all the forces acting on the car. 2 Q 5. Why does a rotating top not fall down but a top at rest falls down? 2 Q 6.Why is it dicult for a heavy person to be a good gure skater? 2 Q 7. A car of mass 1000 kg is put in a surface inclined at an angle of 220 to the horizontal surface. The car is at rest due to the frictional force between the tyres and the surface. Find the magnitude of the frictional force. Take g=10.0m.s2 . 3 Q 8. A lift moves down with a downward acceleration of 1.2 m.s2 . The apparent weight of a person inside the lift is 500 N. What is his true weight? Take g=10.0m.s2 . 1

3 Q 9. You drag an object of mass 40 kg horizontally, at a constant velocity, to a distance of 5.0 m through a rough surface. The co-ecient of friction between the object and the surface is 0.15. How much work is done in the process? 2 Q 10. In a carrom board game, you hit a carrom man with a striker of mass 30 gm at a speed of 0.5 m/s. after the impact, the striker stops and the carom man moves in the direction of the striker at a speed of 1.6 m/s. Find out the mass of the carrom man. Neglect any frictional force. 2 Q 11. A person stands on a frictionless turntable. the turntable is rotated initially at an angular speed of rad/s. As the person twists his body, the angular speed changes to 1.5 rev/s. The initial moment of inertia of the person is 2.8 kg.m2 . Calculate the nal moment of inertia of the person. 3 Q 12. A mass less string is wound around a solid spherical ball of radius 6.0 cm and mass 2.0 kg. The ball is placed in a horizontal frictionless surface. As the string is pulled by a constant force F , the ball starts to roll. If F = 5.0 N, nd out the angular speed of the ball. M R2 . Given, the moment of inertia of a solid sphere = 2 5 3
