supplemented by the concept of Hybridization. This is a Hypothetical concept and has been
introduced by Pauling and Slater. According to this concept any number of atomic orbitals of an
atom which differ in energy slightly may mix with each other to form new orbitals called hybrid
orbitals. The process of mixing or amalagamation of atomic orbitals of nearly same energy to
produced a set of entirely new orbtials of equivalent energy is known as Hybridization.

23) Question Explanation : Contact force between two surfaces has two perpendicular
components: Normal reaction and friction. We need to compare their magnitudes and identify
correct relations.
Concept :
Normal force acts perpendicular to surfaces.
Friction acts tangential to surfaces.
Resultant contact force (F) is the vector sum of normal force (FN) and friction (f).
Magnitude of contact force:
F = √(FN² + f²)
Since friction and normal reaction are non-zero, both components exist.
Solution :
Because
F = √(FN² + f²)

A. Compare F with FN
√(FN² + f²) > FN
This is always true when f ≠ 0.

So F > FN is correct.

B. Compare F with f
√(FN² + f²) > f
Always true when FN ≠ 0.
 So F > f is correct.

C. Compare FN and f
No fixed relation.
Either FN may be greater or friction may be greater depending on situation.
So this is NOT always true.

D. Inequality relation
From vector property,
|FN − f| < F < FN + f

Since FN and f are positive,

FN − f < F < FN + f
This is always true.

Thus, acceleration of 5 kg block, a = 0 m/s2

31)

Question Explanation: We must find the tension in the string between 5 kg and 3 kg just
after the spring between 2 kg and 5 kg is cut.
Concept: Immediately after cutting, apply Newton's second law. If connected masses
accelerate downward with a = g, the string becomes slack and tension becomes zero.
Solution:
After cutting, only 5 kg and 3 kg remain connected.
Total weight .

Acceleration: .
Thus both masses move downward with a = g.
For .
