4) Explanation Question:
A horizontal force of 9N is applied on block B, as shown. Find the frictional force acting on
block A.

Concept:
This question is based on frictional force.

Solution:
Assuming maximum friction is acting on block B.
For block B
(1) (fs,max)B = 0.2 × 30 = 6N
In equilibrium of B
(2) (fs,max)A = 0.31 × 10
= 3.1 N
9=T+6
⇒ T=3
For block A

Static friction acts for no slipping fs = T

fs = 3N
which is less than fs,max = 3.1 N
∴ Both blocks will be at rest

Final Answer:
The correct option is (3)

5)

Just after cutting

aA = aB = 0
& aC = aD ≠ 0

6) Ans. (1)
When the block begins to move

N + Fsin37° = 44
When the block begins to move
Fcos37° = µ(44 + F sin 37°)
∴ Fcos37 = 0.5 × 44 + F sin 37° × 0.5

F = 20N
∴ From graph

Concept: This question is based on inelastic collision.

Solution: In an inelastic collision (when net external force is zero) momentum and total
energy is conserved but kinetic energy is not conserved.

Final Answer: Option (2)

15) Question Explanation:

The problem involves three identical masses, each of mass m, initially, body 2 is at rest, while
body 1 and 3 moves towards it at speed v0. The collision between bodies 1 and 2 is perfectly
elastic and the collision between bodies 2 and 3 is perfectly inelastic. The final state of the
bodies after all collisions is to be determined.

Concept:
This question is based on collision (Elastic and Inelastic)

Solution:
Collision between 1 & 2; velocity exchange
Collision between 2 & 3; travel with common velocity vcm = 0. Thus all come to rest.

24) Question Explanation: Particle 'A' is projected horizontally towards a wedge with a
speed 10 m/s. If particle strikes perpendicular to the surface of wedge after 2 second then we
have to calculate the wedge velocity.

Concept: This question is based on relative motion and projectile motion.

Solution: If particle strikes 1st to the wedge i.e., the velocity of particle along the surface of

wedge [Link] wedge should be zero. Now, initial velocity of

particle on along surface of wedge would be = 8 m/s
Wedge velocity along surface = –v0 cos 3i

∴ Relative velocity of particle along =

 and relative acceleration of particle along surface be = g sin 3i = 6 m/s2

∴ v0 = 5

Final answer is 5.

2. Concepts: ΔS of sys

3. Solution:

The assertion is false because it only considers the entropy change of the system and not the
surroundings. The reason correctly states the second law of thermodynamics for reversible
processes.

Therefore, the answer is 4. The assertion is false but the reason is true.

54) Question Explanation: We have to check which of the statement is true for the given
quadratic equation.

Concept: This question is based on relation between roots and coefficient.

Solution: Given, x2 + px + q = 0 → roots α, α3

Sum of roots
α + α3 = – p ... (i)
α × α3 = q
α4 = q ... (ii)
Now, (α + α ) = (–p)2
3 2

α2(1 + α2)2 = p2
⇒ α2(1 + α4 + 2α2) = p2
⇒ α2(1 + α4) + 2α4 = p2
α2(1 + α4) = p2 – 2α4
α2(1 + q) = p2 – 2q {from (ii)}
Squaring both sides
α4(1 + q)2 = (p2 – 2q)2
q(1 + q2 + 2q) = p4 + 4q2 – 4p2q
⇒ q3 + 2q2 + q = p4 + 4q2 – 4p2q
⇒ q3 – 2p2 – p4 + 4p2q + q = 0
