STATEMENT-1 : A block of mass mm starts moving on a rough horizontal surface with a velocity vv. It stops due to friction between the block and the surface after moving through a certain distance. The surface is now tilted to an angle of 30∘30^{\circ} with the horizontal and the same block is made to go up on the surface with the same initial velocity vv. The decrease in the mechanical energy in the second situation is smaller than that in the first situation.

STATEMENT-2 : The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface decreases with the increase in the angle of inclination.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False
Option C is correct because Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False. The decrease in mechanical energy due to friction is less on an incline, and the coefficient of friction does not decrease with the angle of inclination.

(A): Two solid cylinders of different masses and radii take same time to roll down an inclined plane without slipping.
(R): Moment of inertia of two solid cylinders of different masses and radii about their natural axes are different.
Given below are two statements:

Statement I: An elevator can go up or down with uniform speed when its weight is balanced with the tension of its cable.

Statement II: Force exerted by the floor of an elevator on the foot of a person standing on it is more than his/her weight when the elevator goes down with increasing speed.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A particle is projected with a velocity 200  ms−1200\mathrm{\;m}{\mathrm{s}^{ - 1}} at an angle of 600{60^0}. At the highest point, it explodes into three particles of equal masses. One goes vertically upwards with a velocity 100  ms−1100\mathrm{\;m}{\mathrm{s}^{ - 1}}, the second particle goes vertically downwards. What is the velocity of third particle?

The final speed of the wagon is Assertion : Mass is a measure of inertia of the body in linear motion.

Reason : Greater the mass, greater is the force required to change its state of rest or of uniform motion.
