SECTION A Attempt all questions: Multiple choice questions. 1.

The acceleration due to gravity of two freely falling bodies of masses 1 kg and 5 kg is: a) Greater for the heavier body b) Smaller for the heavier body c) Same for both d) None of these 3. Rate of change of momentum of a body is given by the: a) Unbalanced force b) Resultant velocity c) Acceleration d) Frictional force 4. As a result of unbalanced force the body moves with: *Uniform acceleration * Uniform speed * Variable acceleration * Uniform Velocity 5.

Gradient (slope) of velocity time graph represents: a) Speed b) Velocity c) Acceleration d) Displacement 7. A string passes over a pulley and carries a 2kg mass at one end and 3kg mass at the other. What is the acceleration of the masses? a) 1. 96m/sec2 b) 19.6m/sec2 c) 4.9m/sec2 d) 170m/sec2 8. What is the tension in the string in above? a) 9.80N b) 5.88N c) 23. 52N d) 238N 9. A ball is thrown vertically up and comes back to ground in 4sec. The initial velocity of the ball is: a) 4m/sec b) 19.6m/sec c) 25m/sec d) 30m/sec 10. A helicopter of mass 3x104 kg rises vertically with a constant speed of 25m/s. what is the resultant force acts on the helicopter? a) Zero b) 3x104 N upward c) 3x104 N downward d) 7.5x104 N upward 11. How much height does a freely falling body o mass 10kg lose in 2 sec? a) 9.8m b) 19.6m c) 49m d) 4.9m SECTION B (20 marks) 1. A boy throws a ball upward from the top of a cliff with a speed of 15.7m/s. On the way down it just misses the thrower and fall ground 35meters below. Find a) How long it is in air b) How high it goes c) How long the ball rises d) With what velocity it strikes the ground. 2. A stone is thrown vertically upwards, If it takes 30 seconds to return to the ground. How high does the stone go? 3. Two bodies of mass 25kg and 15kg are attached to the ends of a string which pass over a frictionless pulley so that the two bodies hang vertically. Find the tension in the string and the time taken by the bodies to move through a distance of 20m. (Assume that the bodies start from rest). (2o marks)

4. Give the difference between elastic collision and inelastic collision. Two bodies having different masses and moving with different velocities have an elastic collision in one dimension. Calculate their final velocities after collision. What will happen if? (a) The masses of two bodies are equal? (b) The masses of the two bodies are equal one of them is at rest?
