A cricket ball is hit at 300{30^0} with the horizontal with kinetric energy Ek{E_k}. What is the kinetic energy at the highest point?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
3Ek/43{E_k}/4
Option B (3Ek/43{E_k}/4) is correct because the kinetic energy at the highest point is due to the horizontal component of velocity, which is vcos⁡(30∘)v \cos(30^\circ). Therefore, the kinetic energy at the highest point is Ekcos⁡2(30∘)=Ek(3/2)2=3Ek/4E_k \cos^2(30^\circ) = E_k (\sqrt{3}/2)^2 = 3E_k/4.

Assertion (A) : Velocity and acceleration of a particle in circular motion at some instant are: v=(2i^)ms−1\mathbf{v}=(2 \hat{\mathbf{i}}) \mathrm{ms}^{-1} and a=(−i^+2j^)ms−2\mathbf{a}=(-\hat{\mathbf{i}}+2 \hat{\mathbf{j}}) \mathrm{ms}^{-2}, then radius of circle is 2 m2 \mathrm{~m}.

Reason (R) : Speed of particle is decreasing at a rate of 1 ms−21 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
The correct answer is B. Both the Assertion and Reason are true, but the Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion. The radius can be calculated using centripetal acceleration, and the speed is indeed decreasing at a rate of 1 m/s².

A mass of 50 kg is raised through a certain height by a machine whose efficiency is 90%90\%, the energy is 5000 J. If the mass is now released, its KE on hitting the ground shall be
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
4500 J
Option B (4500 J) is correct because the machine's efficiency is 90%, so the useful energy (potential energy gained) is 90% of the input energy (5000 J). When the mass is released, this potential energy converts to kinetic energy, hence KE = 0.9 * 5000 J = 4500 J.

A rubber ball is dropped from a height of 5 m on a planet, where the acceleration due to gravity is not known. On bouncing it rises to 1.8 m. The ball loses its velocity on bouncing by a factor of
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
25\frac{2}{5}
Option B (25\frac{2}{5}) is correct because the coefficient of restitution is the ratio of the final to initial velocity. The velocity is proportional to the square root of the height, so the ratio of velocities is 1.8/5=9/25=3/5\sqrt{1.8/5} = \sqrt{9/25} = 3/5. The ball loses its velocity by a factor of 1 - 3/5 = 2/5.
