1. Write detailed answers?
a. Explain the difference between potential energy and kinetic energy.
Ans:
|
Potential Energy |
Kinetic Energy |
|
1.
The energy possessed by a body on account of its specific state or position
is called its potential energy. |
1. The energy
possessed by a body due to its motion is called its kinetic energy. |
|
2.It occurs
various forms such as gravitational potential energy and electric potential
energy but work is not done till it is transformed into kinetic energy. |
2.It occurs only in one form and for
doing work it does not have to be transformed into another form. |
|
3.Gravitational
potential energy = mgh. |
3. Kinetic energy = ½
mv2 |
|
4.
Potential energy can be negative. |
4. Kinetic energy cannot be negative. |
b. Derive the formula for the kinetic energy of an object of mass m, moving with velocity v.
Ans:
Consider
a body of mass m moving with a uniform acceleration a along a straight line. If u is the initial
velocity of the body, V is the final velocity and s is the distance covered by
the body during this change of velocity we have
V2 = u2 + 2 as ( the kinematical equation of motion)
V2 – u2 = 2 as
S = V2 – u2 / 2a ………..(1)
If F is the net force acting on the body and W is the work done by the force,
W = Fs ……….(2)
Now, F = ma ………..(3)
From Eqs. (1), (2) and (3) we get,
W = ma × V2 – u2 / 2a
= 1/2 m (V2 – u2 )
= For a body initi ally at rest, u = 0
W = 1/2
Work done on a body = change in the kinetic energy of the body.
Kinetic
energy of the body. = 1/2 mv2
c. Prove that the kinetic energy of a freely falling object on reaching the ground is nothing but the transformation of its initial potential energy.
Ans:
Consider a body of mass m initially at rest at point A at a hight h from the ground . suppose that the body is released so that if follows the downward path ABC freely ( i.e., the buoyancy due to air and air resistance are ignored).
- At A
u (initial velocity) = 0
Kinetic energy (KE) = 1/2 mu2 = 0
Potential energy (PE) = mgh, where g is the acceleration due to gravity.
Total energy = 0 + mgh = mgh
- At C
If v is the velocity of the body at C, v2 = u2 + 2gh
(considering the motion from A to C)
v2 = 2 gh (u = 0)
KE = ½ mv2
= ½ m (2 gh) = mgh
PE = 0 at the ground level
Therefore
the total energy of the body is the same
at points A, B and C, i.e., the total energy remains constant during the motion
of the body.
d. Determine the amount of work done when an object is displaced at an angle of 300 with respect to the direction of the applied force.
Ans:
e. If an object has 0 momentum, does it have kinetic energy? Explain your answer. f. Why is the work done on an object moving with uniform circular motion zero?
Ans:
Kinetic energy of a body of mass m and speed v
= K = ½ mv2 = m2v2 / 2m
= P2/2m, where p = mv is the momentum of the body,
If
follows that if p =0 , the kinetic energy of the body is zero

4. Study the following activity and answer the questions.
1. Take two aluminium channels of different lengths.
2. Place the lower ends of the channels on the floor and hold their upper ends at the same height.
3. Now take two balls of the same size and weight and release them from the top end of the channels. They will roll down and cover the same distance
Questions
1. At
the moment of releasing the balls, which energy do the balls have?
Ans:
Potential energy
2. As
the balls roll down which energy is converted into which other form of energy?
Ans:
potential energy – Kinetic energy
3. Why

Ans:Kinetic energy
5.
Which law related to energy does the above activity demonstrate ? Explain.
Ans: Law of conservation of energy .
Energy
can neither be created nor destroyed. IT can be converted from one form into

constat.

5. Solve the following examples.
a. An electric pump has 2 kW power. How much water will the pump lift every minute to a height of 10 m? (Ans : 1224.5 kg)
Ans:
Given Data: P = 2 k W = 2000 J/s, t= 60 s,
h = 10 m , g = 9.8 m/s2, m=?
P = W/t = mgh/t
m = pt/gh = 2000 J/s × 60 s ÷ 9.8 m/s × 10 m
= 12000 / 9.8 kg = nearly 1224 kg
This
gives the required mass of water.
b. If a 1200 W electric iron is used daily for 30 minutes, how much total electricity is consumed in the month of April? (Ans :18 Unit)
Ans:
Given Data : P = 1200 W,
t = 30 days × (30 minutes / day ) × ( 60 s / minute ) = 54000 s,
W = ?
P = W / t
W = pt
W = 1200 W × 54000 s
= 648 × 105 J
= 6.48 × 107 J
= 6.48 × 107 J ÷ 3.6 × 106 Units
= 18 units
This
gives the required electricity.
c. If the energy of a ball falling from a height of 10 metres is reduced by 40%, how high will it rebound? (Ans : 6 m)
Ans:
Given Data: h1 = 10 m.
E2 = E1 – E2 = E1 – E1 × 40/100
E2 = E1 ( 1 – 0.4 ) = 0.6 E1, h2 = ?
E1 = mg h1 , E2= mg h2 ,
E2 = 0.6 E1
h2 = 0.6 E1 = 0.6 × 10 m = 6 m
The
ball will rebound to a height of 6 m .
d. The velocity of a car increases from 54 km/hr to 72 km/hr. How much is the work done if the mass of the car is 1500 kg ? (Ans. : 131250 J)
Ans:
Given Data: m = 1500 kg , u = 54 km/h
= 5400m/3600s = 15 m/s,
V = 72 km/h = 72000m/3600s
= 20 m/s, W = ?
Work done,
W = increase in kinetic energy
= ½ mv2 – ½ mu2
= ½ m (v2 – u2)
= ½ × 1500 kg × [ (20 m/s)2 – (15 m/s)2]
= 750 × (400 – 225)
J = 750 × 175 J
= 131250 J
The
work done to increase the velocity of the car = 131250 J
e. Ravi applied a force of 10 N and moved a book 30 cm in the direction of the force. How much was the work done by Ravi? (Ans: 3 J)
Ans:
Given Data: F = 10 N, s = 30 cm = 0.3 m, W = ?
W = Fs = 10 N × 0.3 m = 3 J
The work done by Ravi = 3 J
