Statement-I: The velocity of a body at the bottom of an incline plane of given height is more when it slides down the plane, compared to, when it rolling down the same plane.
Statement-II: In rolling down a body acquires both, kinetic energy of translation and rotation.
Statement-II: In rolling down a body acquires both, kinetic energy of translation and rotation.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Statement-I is true and statement-II is true
Option A (Statement-I is true and statement-II is true) is correct because a sliding object converts all potential energy to translational kinetic energy, while a rolling object divides potential energy between translational and rotational kinetic energy, resulting in lower translational velocity.

You are pushing a wooden crate across the floor at a constant speed. You decide to change the orientation of crate such that area of contact with floor become half. In the new orientation, to push the same crate across the same floor with the same constant speed, the force that you apply must be about as the force required before you changed the crate's orientation.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Equally great
Option C (Equally great) is correct because the force of friction depends on the normal force and the coefficient of friction, neither of which changes when the orientation of the crate is changed.
