A block of 200 g200 \mathrm{~g} mass is dropped from a height of 2 m2 \mathrm{~m} on to a spring and compresses the spring to a distance of 50 cm50 \mathrm{~cm}. The force constant of the spring is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
40 Nm−140 \mathrm{~Nm}^{-1}
Option B (40 Nm−140 \text{{ Nm}}^{-1}) is correct because the potential energy lost by the block equals the potential energy stored in the spring when it's compressed.

Reason: A vector is necessarily changed if it is rotated through an angle.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
If Assertion is True but the Reason is False
Option C (If Assertion is True but the Reason is False) is correct because the resultant acceleration is towards the center, but a vector can change without rotation.

0.1  ms−10.1\mathrm{\;m}{\mathrm{s}^{ - 1}}
Option A (0.1  ms−10.1\mathrm{\;m}{\mathrm{s}^{ - 1}}) is correct because the speed is calculated by equating the work done to the kinetic energy gained by the ship.

covering a distance of 15 m. The stopping
force acting on the motorcycle by the road is
100 N, then the work done by the motorcycle
on the road is

Assertion: If work done by the force depends on path then force is said to be conservative.
Reason: All the conservative forces are central force.
View answer and explanation

If Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.
Option D is correct. The assertion is incorrect because constant power implies non-uniform acceleration, while the reason is correct as it states the work-energy theorem.

A ball moving with a velocity uˉ1\bar{u}_1 collides elastically with another ball of equal mass, in a onedimensional collision. Which of the following is not possible?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
The first ball will move with a velocity less than uˉ1\bar{u}_1
Option D (The first ball will move with a velocity less than uˉ1\bar{u}_1) is correct because in an elastic collision with equal masses, the balls exchange velocities, making it impossible for the first ball to move with a velocity less than its initial velocity.

Assertion: Work done by the force or against the force does not depend on path, then force is called conservative force.
Reason: All central forces which follows the inverse square law are conservative forces.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
If both Assertion & Reason are True but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion
Option B is correct because while both the assertion and reason are true, the reason doesn't fully explain the assertion. Conservative forces are path-independent, and central forces are examples, but the latter doesn't explain the former.
