1. Ratio of moment of inertia of a rectangle and that of a triangle, having same base and height with respect to their base will be 2. Ratio of moment of inertia of a circle and that of a square having same area about their centroidal axis is 3. An effort P1 is just sufficient to drag a load W up an inclined plane having inclination with the horizontal direction. Subsequently the effort P1 is reduced to P2 and the load W is just able to move downwards along the plane. The load W will be equal to

8. The velocity-time graph of a body is a straight line passing through the origin. If the slope of the graph is m, the distance travelled by the body in t would be 2 2 2 2 . 2 . . . 2 2 2 9. A body moves along a straight line and the variation of the kinetic energy with time is linear as depicted in the figure below: The Force acting on the body is a. Directly proportional to velocity. b. Inversely proportional to velocity. c. Zero. d. Constant. 10. The CG of a circular sector of radius D
