2.
\({ K }_{ 1 }=\frac { 2\pi }{ 1 } =6.28 \ rad \ { m }^{ -1 }\)

3.
Force constant of a spring is defined as the restoring force per unit length.
4.
RMS velocity \(\mathrm{C} =\sqrt{\frac{3 R T}{M}} \)
\(\mathrm{T}=\mathrm{T}_{1} =273 \mathrm{~K}
\)
\(\therefore C =\sqrt{\frac{3 R \times 273}{M}}\)
When the RMS velocity is tripled
\(3 \mathrm{C}=\sqrt{\frac{3 R T}{M}}\)
Dividing equation is (2) by (1) we get
\(\frac{3 C}{C} =\sqrt{\frac{3 R T / M}{3 R \times 273 / M}}
\)
\(3 =\sqrt{\frac{T}{273}}
\)
\(\therefore 9 =\frac{T}{273}

8.
Two systems are said to be in thermal equilibrium with each other if they are at the same temperature, will not change with time.
9.
(i) Acceleration to Boyle's law P \(\alpha\)\(\frac { 1 }{ V } \)
(ii) Acceleration to Charles' law V \(\alpha\) T. By combining these two equations we have PV = CT. Here C is a positive constant.
(iii) So we can write the constant C as k times the number of particles N.
Here k is the Boltzmann constant (1.381\(\times\)10-23 JK-1) and it is found to be a universal constant. So the ideal gas law can be stated as follows PV = NKT
10.
When oil comes out through a tin with one hole, the pressure inside the tin becomes less than the atmospheric pressure, soon the oil stops flowing out. When two holes are made in the tin, air keeps on entering the tin, through the other hole and maintains pressure inside.
11.
Angle of contact is defined as the angle between the tangent to the liquid surface at the point of contact and the solid surface inside the liquid.
12.
Pascal's law states that, if the pressure in a liquid is changed at a particular point, the change is transmitted to the entire liquid without being diminished in magnitude.
13.
Hooke's law of elasticity states that within the elastic limit, the strain produced in a body is directly proportional to the stress applied.
strain ∝ stress
14.
Here, the elastic modulus is Young modulus and due to stretching, stress is tensile stress and strain is tensile strain.
Within the elastic limit, stress is proportional to strain (obey Hooke’s law). Therefore, it shows a straight line behaviour. So, Young modulus can be computed by taking slope of these straight lines. Hence, calculating the slope for the straight line, we get
Slope of A > Slope of B > Slope of C
Which implies,
Young modulus of C < Young modulus of B < Young modulus of A
Notice that larger the slope, lesser the strain (fractional change in length). So, the material is much stiffer. Hence, the elasticity of wire A is greater than wire B which is greater than C. From this example, we have understood that Young’s modulus measures the resistance of solid to a change in its length.
15.
The weight of an object is defined as the downward force whose magnitude W is equal to the upward force that must be applied to the object to hold it at rest or at constant velocity relative to the Earth.
16.
Yes, the angular momentum of a planet is conserved.
During the orbitary motion of the planets around the Sun, the line of action of gravitational force passes through the axis, the external torque is zero. Hence the angular momentum is conserved.
Torque, \( { \tau } =\frac { dL }{ dt }\)
If torque is zero then angular momentum (L) is constant i.e., it is conserved.
17.
1. Law of orbits
Each planet moves around the Sun in an elliptical orbit with the Sun at one of the foci.
2. Law of area
The radial vector (line joining the Sun to a planet) sweeps equal areas in equal intervals of time.
3. Law of period
The square of the time period of revolution of a planet around the Sun in its elliptical orbit is directly proportional to the cube of the semi major axis of the ellipse. It can be written as :
\(T^{2} \propto a^{3} \)
\(\frac{T^{2}}{a^{3}}=\text { constant. }\)
18.
Mass m = 100 kg
Acceleration a = 50 cm s-2 = 0.5 ms-2
Using Newton's second law,
F= ma
F=100 kg\(\times\)0.5 ms-2 = 50N
19.
We can resolve all the vectors in x, y and z components with respect to Cartesian coordinate system.
Once we resolve the components we can separately equate the x components on both sides, y components on both sides, and z components on both the sides of the equation, we then get
\(F_{1x}+F_{2x}+F_{3x}=F_{4x}\)
\(F_{1y}+F_{2y}+F_{3y}=F_{4y}\)
\(F_{1z}+F_{2z}+F_{3z}=F_{4z}\)
20.
Force \(\vec F=\vec i+2\vec j+3\vec k\)
Distance \(\vec S=4\vec i+6\vec j\)
Work done \(\vec F.\vec S=(\vec i2\vec j+3\vec k).(4\vec i+6\vec j)=4+12+0=16J\)

24.
No.
If a car is moving at a constant speed, then net external force will be zero.
Because a = \(\frac{v-u}{t}\)
For constant speed v = u, then a = 0. (a-acceleration)
F = ma ∴ F = zero. i.e.. no external force.
W = FS = 0. So net work done is zero .
25.
\(\text {Mass of a bullet } m=20 g=20 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~kg} =0.02 \mathrm{~kg} \)
\(\text {Mass of a pendulum } M =5 \mathrm{~kg} \)
\(\text {Height } \mathrm{h} =10 \mathrm{~cm} \)
\(=10 \times 10^{-2} \)
\(=0.1 \mathrm{~m} \)
\(\text { K.E. of the block } =\text { P.E. of the block } \)
\(\frac{1}{2} M v^{2} =M g h \)
\(\therefore v^{2} =\sqrt{2 g h} \)
\(=\sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \times 0.1}=\sqrt{1.96}=1.4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \)
\(\therefore \text { Final speed } v =1.4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \)
\(\text {Final speed } v =\frac{m_{1} u_{1}+m_{2} u_{2}}{\left(m_{1}+m_{2}\right)} \)
\(v_{1} =\frac{0.02 u_{1}+5 \times 0}{(0.02+5)}=\frac{0.02}{5.02} u_{1} \)
\(\text { But } v =1.4 \)
\(\therefore 1.4 =\frac{0.02}{5.02} u_{1} \)
\(u_{1}=\frac{1.4 \times 5.02}{0.02}=\frac{7.028}{0.02}=351.4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
\(\therefore \text { Initial speed } =351.4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
26.

27.
Force acting vertically to sling shot
Tension T in each string;
Now applying Lami's theorem, we get
\(\frac{2 T}{\sin \theta} =F
\)
\(\frac{2 T}{\sin (2 \times 30)} =50 N
\)
\(\frac{2 T}{\sin (60)} =50 N
\)
\(\frac{2 T}{\sqrt{3}} =50 N
\)
\(\frac{T}{2 T} =\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \times 50 N
\)
\(T=\frac{50 N}{\sqrt{3}}=28.268 N\)
28.

31.
(i) According to Newton's third law when one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.
(ii) When you push a car from inside, the reaction force of your pushing is balanced out by your body moving backward and eventually the seat behind you pushes against to bring things to static equilibrium.

33.
Least count of screw gauge

Least count of vernier calipers
\(=1MSD-1-1VSD=(1-19/20)MSD\)
\(={{1}\over{20}}\) = 0.05 cm.
So screw gauge is more precise than vernier.

When two or more springs are connected in parallel, we can replace (by removing) all these springs with an equivalent spring (effective spring) whose net effect is same as if all the springs are in parallel connection.
