Q1 FREE PREVIEW
PYQ

A particle moving in a straight line covers half the distance with speed \(6\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}\). The other half is covered in two equal time intervals with speeds \(9\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}\) and \(15\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}\) respectively. The average speed of the particle during the motion is :

[JEE Main 2024, 9 Apr (Shift 1)]

\(8\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}\)

b

\(9.2\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}\)

c

\(10\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}\)

d

\(8.8\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}\)

✓ Correct answer: a)

\(8\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}\)

Explanation

\({V}_{avg}=\frac{S}{\frac{S}{2{v}_{1}}+\left(\frac{S}{{v}_{2}+{v}_{3}}\right)}\)

\({V}_{avg}=\frac{2{v}_{1}\left({v}_{2}+{v}_{3}\right)}{{v}_{2}+{v}_{3}+2{v}_{1}}\\\)

Q2 FREE PREVIEW
PYQ

A block of mass \(1\) kg , moving along x with speed \({\mathrm{v}}_{\mathrm{i}}=10\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}\) enters a rough region ranging from \(\mathrm{x}=0.1\mathrm{m}\) to \(\mathrm{x}=1.9\mathrm{m}\). The retarding force acting on the block in this range is \({\mathrm{F}}_{\mathrm{r}}=-\mathrm{kxN}\), with \(\mathrm{k}=10\mathrm{N}/\mathrm{m}\). Then the final speed of the block as it crosses rough region is

d

✓ Correct answer: d)

\(8\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}\)

Explanation


$$\begin{aligned}& a=\frac{F}{m}=-10 x \\& v \frac{d v}{d x}=-10 x \\& \int_{10}^v v d v=-10 \int_{0.1}^{1.9} x d x \\& \frac{v^2-100}{2}=-10\left(\frac{1.9^2-0.1}{2}\right)^2 \\& v=8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\end{aligned}$$

Explanation


$$\begin{aligned}&& v^2-u^2=2 a S \\& \left(\frac{2 u}{3}\right)^2=u^2+2(-a)\left(4 \times 10^{-2}\right) \\& \Rightarrow \frac{4 u^2}{9}=u^2-2 a\left(4 \times 10^{-2}\right) \\& \Rightarrow-\frac{5 u^2}{9}=-2 a\left(4 \times 10^{-2}\right) \\& \Rightarrow 0=\left(\frac{2 u}{3}\right)^2+2(-a)(x) \\& \Rightarrow-\frac{4 u^2}{9}=-2 a x$$
&\text { Dividing equation (1) by (2), we get }
&$$\begin{aligned}& \frac{5}{4}=\frac{4 \times 10^{-2}}{x} \Rightarrow x=\frac{16}{5} \times 10^{-2} \\& \Rightarrow x=3.2 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~m}=32 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}\end{aligned}$$

When bullet travels \(24 \mathrm{~cm}\) through the block along its length horizontally, velocity of bullet becomes \(\frac{u}{3}\). Then it further penetrates into the block in the same direction before coming to rest exactly at the other end of the block. The total length of the block is :
