When a simple pendulum is rotated in a vertical plane with constant angular velocity, centripetal force is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Same at all lower point
Option B (Maximum at lowest point) is correct because at the lowest point, the tension in the string is maximum, contributing to the centripetal force.

Assertion: When a force of 20 N displaces a body by 5 m then work done by this force must be 100 J for every observer watching that body.
Reason: Work done on a body does not depend on the observer that is observing the body.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
If both Assertion & Reason are false
Option D is correct because both Assertion and Reason are false. Work done depends on the frame of reference and is not the same for every observer.

A spring when stretched by 2 mm its potential energy becomes 4 J. If it is stretched by 10 mm, its potential energy is equal to
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
None
Option D (None) is correct because the potential energy of a spring is proportional to the square of the displacement, so if the displacement increases by a factor of 5, the potential energy increases by a factor of 25, resulting in 100 J.

View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion
Option A (If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion) is correct because the centripetal force required for a car to turn is provided by friction, and this force must be less than the limiting friction.

Angle between position vector and acceleration vector of a particle in uniform circular motion (centre of circle is taken as origin) is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
180∘180^{\circ}
Option D is correct because in uniform circular motion, the acceleration vector (centripetal acceleration) points towards the center of the circle, while the position vector points away from the center, resulting in an angle of 180 degrees.

View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
1 does not imply 2 but 2 implies 1
Option D (1 does not imply 2 but 2 implies 1) is correct because zero kinetic energy implies zero velocity, hence zero momentum, but zero momentum does not necessitate zero kinetic energy.

Potential energy is also called as
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Mutual energy
Option B (Mutual energy) is correct because potential energy is also referred to as mutual energy, representing the energy stored due to the relative positions of objects within a system.

Statement-I: In circular motion, the centripetal and centrifugal force acting in opposite direction balance each other.
Statement-II: Centripetal and centrifugal forces don't act at the same time.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Both statements are false
Option D (Both statements are false) is correct because centripetal and centrifugal forces are not balanced forces acting on the same object, and they act at the same time in a rotating frame.

A running man has the same kinetic energy as that of a boy of half his mass. The man speed up by 2  ms−12\mathrm{\;m}{\mathrm{s}^{ - 1}} and the boy changes his speed by x=ms−1x = \mathrm{m}{\mathrm{s}^{ - 1}}, so that the kinetic energies of the boy and the man are again equal. Then x in ms−1\mathrm{m}{\mathrm{s}^{ - 1}} is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
+22+ 2\sqrt 2
Option B (+22+ 2\sqrt 2) is correct because it is derived from equating the kinetic energies of the man and boy before and after the speed changes.

Reason: Because both the types of collisions are identical.
View answer and explanation

View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
56αr3\frac{5}{6} \alpha r^3

Correct option: B
Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true, Statement-2 is not the correct explanation for Statement-1
Option B (Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true, Statement-2 is not the correct explanation for Statement-1) is correct because both statements are true, but the zero displacement doesn't directly explain why the work done is zero.

View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
mv2r+mg\frac{{m{v^2}}}{r} + mg
The correct answer is C (mv2r+mg\frac{{m{v^2}}}{r} + mg) because at the lowest point, the tension must support both the weight and provide the centripetal force.
