Two bodies of mass, \(4~\text{kg}\) and \(6~\text{kg}\), are tied to the ends of a massless string. The string passes over a pulley, which is frictionless (see figure). The acceleration of the system in terms of acceleration due to gravity (\(g\)) is:
| 1. | \(\dfrac{g}{2}\) | 2. | \(\dfrac{g}{5}\) |
| 3. | \(\dfrac{g}{10}\) | 4. | \(g\) |
The pulleys and strings shown in the figure are smooth and of negligible mass. For the system to remain in equilibrium, the angle \(\theta\) should be:

1. \(0^\circ\)
2. \(30^\circ\)
3. \(45^\circ\)
4. \(60^\circ\)
The force \(F\) acting on a particle of mass \(m\) is indicated by the force-time graph shown below. The change in momentum of the particle over the time interval from \(0\) to \(8\) s is:

1. \(24~\text{N-s}\)
2. \(20~\text{N-s}\)
3. \(12~\text{N-s}\)
4. \(6~\text{N-s}\)
When a body of mass \(m\) just begins to slide as shown, match List-I with List-II:

| (b) | Frictional force \((f_s)\) | (ii) | \(Q\) |
| (c) | Weight \((mg)\) | (iii) | \(R\) |
| (d) | \(mg \mathrm{sin}\theta ~\) | (iv) | \(S\) |
| (a) | (b) | (c) | (d) | |
| 1. | (ii) | (i) | (iii) | (iv) |
| 2. | (iv) | (ii) | (iii) | (i) |
| 3. | (iv) | (iii) | (ii) | (i) |
| 4. | (ii) | (iii) | (iv) | (i) |
What is the velocity of the block when the angle between the string and the horizontal is \(30^\circ\) as shown in the diagram?

1. \(v_B=v_P\)
2. \(v_B=\frac{v_P}{\sqrt{3}}\)
3. \(v_B=2v_P\)
4. \(v_B=\frac{2v_P}{\sqrt{3}}\)
A car of mass \(m\) is moving on a level circular track of radius \(R\). If \(\mu_s\) represents the static friction between the road and tyres of the car, the maximum speed of the car in circular motion is given by:
| 1. | \(\sqrt{\dfrac{Rg}{\mu_s} }\) | 2. | \(\sqrt{\dfrac{mRg}{\mu_s}}\) |
| 3. | \(\sqrt{\mu_s Rg}\) | 4. | \(\sqrt{\mu_s m Rg}\) |
A massless and inextensible string connects two blocks \(\mathrm{A}\) and \(\mathrm{B}\) of masses \(3m\) and \(m,\) respectively. The whole system is suspended by a massless spring, as shown in the figure. The magnitudes of acceleration of \(\mathrm{A}\) and \(\mathrm{B}\) immediately after the string is cut, are respectively:
| 1. | \(\dfrac{g}{3},g\) | 2. | \(g,g\) |
| 3. | \(\dfrac{g}{3},\dfrac{g}{3}\) | 4. | \(g,\dfrac{g}{3}\) |
| 1. | \(4 T\) | 2. | \(\dfrac{T}{4}\) |
| 3. | \(\sqrt{2} T\) | 4. | \(T\) |
A rigid ball of mass \(M\) strikes a rigid wall at \(60^{\circ}\) and gets reflected without loss of speed, as shown in the figure. The value of the impulse imparted by the wall on the ball will be:
| 1. | \(Mv\) | 2. | \(2Mv\) |
| 3. | \(\dfrac{Mv}{2}\) | 4. | \(\dfrac{Mv}{3}\) |
A truck is stationary and has a bob suspended by a light string in a frame attached to the truck. The truck suddenly moves to the right with an acceleration of \(a.\) In the frame of the truck, the pendulum will tilt:
| 1. | to the left and the angle of inclination of the pendulum with the vertical is \(\text{sin}^{-1} \left( \dfrac{a}{g} \right )\) |
| 2. | to the left and the angle of inclination of the pendulum with the vertical is \(\text{cos}^{-1} \left ( \dfrac{a}{g} \right )\) |
| 3. | to the left and the angle of inclination of the pendulum with the vertical is \(\text{tan}^{-1} \left ( \dfrac{a}{g} \right )\) |
| 4. | to the left and the angle of inclination of the pendulum with the vertical is \(\text{tan}^{-1} \left ( \dfrac{g}{a} \right )\) |
