A particle of charge $1.6 \mu \mathrm{C}$ and mass $16 \mu \mathrm{~g}$ is present in a strong magnetic field of 6.28 T . The particle is then fired perpendicular to magnetic field. The time required for the particle to return to original location for the first time is _________ s. $(\pi=3.14)$
Explanation:
To solve this problem, note that when a charged particle with mass $m$ and charge $q$ is fired perpendicular to a magnetic field of strength $B$, it undergoes uniform circular motion. The period (time to complete one full circle) is given by:
$ T = \frac{2\pi m}{qB} $
Here's how to calculate it step by step:
Convert the given quantities to SI units:
Charge: $q = 1.6\,\mu\text{C} = 1.6 \times 10^{-6}\,\text{C}$
Mass: $m = 16\,\mu\text{g} = 16 \times 10^{-9}\,\text{kg}$
Magnetic field: $B = 6.28\,\text{T}$
Write down the period formula:
$ T = \frac{2\pi m}{qB} $
Substitute the values:
$ T = \frac{2\pi \times (16 \times 10^{-9}\,\text{kg})}{(1.6 \times 10^{-6}\,\text{C})(6.28\,\text{T})} $
Notice that $2\pi \approx 6.28$, which cancels with the given magnetic field value, simplifying the expression:
$ T = \frac{6.28 \times 16 \times 10^{-9}}{1.6 \times 10^{-6} \times 6.28} = \frac{16 \times 10^{-9}}{1.6 \times 10^{-6}} $
Simplify the fraction:
$ T = \frac{16}{1.6} \times \frac{10^{-9}}{10^{-6}} = 10 \times 10^{-3} = 0.01\,\text{s} $
Thus, the time required for the particle to return to its original location is:
$ \boxed{0.01\,\text{s}} $

A string of length $L$ is fixed at one end and carries a mass of $M$ at the other end. The mass makes $\left(\frac{3}{\pi}\right)$ rotations per second about the vertical axis passing through end of the string as shown. The tension in the string is __________ ML.
Explanation:

$\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{T} \cos \theta=\mathrm{mg} \\ & \mathrm{~T} \sin \theta=\mathrm{M} \omega^2 \mathrm{R} \\ & \text { Using equation (2) } \\ & \mathrm{T} \sin \theta=\mathrm{M} \omega^2(\mathrm{~L} \sin \theta) \\ & \mathrm{T}=\mathrm{M} \omega^2 \mathrm{~L}=\mathrm{M}\left(\frac{3}{\pi} \times 2 \pi\right)^2 \mathrm{~L} \\ & \mathrm{~T}=36 \mathrm{ML} \end{aligned}$
A tube of length 1 m is filled completely with an ideal liquid of mass 2 M , and closed at both ends. The tube is rotated uniformly in horizontal plane about one of its ends. If the force exerted by the liquid at the other end is F then angular velocity of the tube is $\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{F}}{\alpha \mathrm{M}}}$ in SI unit. The value of $\alpha$ is _________.
Explanation:

$\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{F}=2 \mathrm{M} \omega^2 \frac{\ell}{2}=\mathrm{Mw}^2 \ell \\ & \omega=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{F}}{\mathrm{M} \ell}} \end{aligned}$
A particle is moving in a circle of radius $50 \mathrm{~cm}$ in such a way that at any instant the normal and tangential components of it's acceleration are equal. If its speed at $\mathrm{t}=0$ is $4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$, the time taken to complete the first revolution will be $\frac{1}{\alpha}\left[1-e^{-2 \pi}\right] \mathrm{s}$, where $\alpha=$ _________.
Explanation:
$\begin{aligned} & \left|\vec{a}_c\right|=\left|\vec{a}_t\right| \\ & \frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{d v}{d t} \\ & \Rightarrow \int_\limits4^v \frac{d v}{v^2}=\int_\limits0^t \frac{d t}{r} \\ & \Rightarrow\left[\frac{-1}{v}\right]_4^v=\frac{t}{r} \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{-1}{v}+\frac{1}{4}=2 t \end{aligned}$
$\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \mathrm{v}=\frac{4}{1-8 \mathrm{t}}=\frac{\mathrm{ds}}{\mathrm{dt}} \\ & 4 \int_0^{\mathrm{t}} \frac{\mathrm{dt}}{1-8 \mathrm{t}}=\int_0^{\mathrm{s}} \mathrm{ds} \\ & (\mathrm{r}=0.5 \mathrm{~m} \\ & \mathrm{s}=2 \pi \mathrm{r}=\pi) \\ & 4 \times \frac{[\ell \mathrm{n}(1-8 \mathrm{t})]_0^{\mathrm{t}}}{-8}=\pi \\ & \ell \mathrm{n}(1-8 \mathrm{t})=-2 \pi \\ & 1-8 \mathrm{t}=\mathrm{e}^{-2 \pi} \\ & \mathrm{t}=\left(1-\mathrm{e}^{-2 \pi}\right) \frac{1}{8} \mathrm{~s} \end{aligned}$
So, $\alpha=8$
Explanation:
$ \begin{aligned} & a=\left(\frac{28 \times 2}{60} \times \frac{22}{7}\right)^{2} \times 1.8 \\\\ & =\frac{1936}{125} \end{aligned} $
So, $x=125$
A car is moving on a circular path of radius 600 m such that the magnitudes of the tangential acceleration and centripetal acceleration are equal. The time taken by the car to complete first quarter of revolution, if it is moving with an initial speed of 54 km/hr is $t(1-e^{-\pi/2})s$. The value of t is ____________.
Explanation:
${{dv} \over {dt}} = {{{v^2}} \over R} \Rightarrow {{{v^2}} \over R} = v{{dv} \over {ds}}$
$ \Rightarrow {{dv} \over v} = {{ds} \over R} \Rightarrow \left. {\ln v} \right|_{15}^v = {s \over R}$
$ \Rightarrow v = 15{e^{\Delta /R}} = {{ds} \over {dt}} \Rightarrow dt = {1 \over {15}}{e^{ - \Delta /R}}ds$
$\Delta t = {R \over {15}}[1 - {e^{ - \Delta /R}}]$
$ = 40[1 - {e^{ - \pi /2}}]$ seconds
$ \Rightarrow t = 40$
A person starts his journey from centre 'O' of the park and comes back to the same position following path OPQO as shown in the figure. The radius of path taken by the person is 200 m and he takes 3 min 58 sec to complete his journey. The average speed of the person is _____________ ms$-$1. (take $\pi$ = 3.14)

Explanation:
A pendulum of length 2 m consists of a wooden bob of mass 50 g. A bullet of mass 75 g is fired towards the stationary bob with a speed v. The bullet emerges out of the bob with a speed ${v \over 3}$ and the bob just completes the vertical circle. The value of v is ___________ ms$-$1. (if g = 10 m/s2).
Explanation:
And we know, v' = $\sqrt{5 r g}$
From the conservation of momentum, we have
$ 75 \times 10^{-3} \times v=50 \times 10^{-3} \times v^{\prime}+75 \times 10^{-3} \times \frac{v}{3} $
$75 \times 10^{-3} v=50 \times 10^{-3} \sqrt{5 r g} \times\left(75 \times 10^{-3} \times \frac{v}{3}\right)$
According to question, the bob completes a vertical circle of $2 \mathrm{~m}$ radius, therefore
$ \begin{aligned} & r=2 \mathrm{~m}, g=10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2} \\\\ & 75 \times 10^{-3} v=50 \times 10^{-3} \times \sqrt{5 \times 2 \times 10}+75 \times 10^{-3} \times \frac{v}{3} \\\\ & 75 \times 10^{-3}\left(\frac{2 v}{3}\right)=50 \times 10^{-3} \times 10 \\\\ & 150 \times 10^{-3} \times v=(150) \times 10^{-2} \\\\ & v=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \end{aligned} $
Note :
At the point $3$, both the tension $T_{3}$ and the weight $m g$ of the body act towards the centre of the circle. So $T_{3}+m g$ provides the centripetal force necessary for the rotation of the body.
$ \therefore T_{3}+m g=\frac{m v_{3}^{2}}{r} $
At the point $1$, the tension $T_{1}$ acts vertically upwards i.e., towards the centre of the circle and the weight $m g$ of the body acts vertically downwards i.e., in an opposite direction. So $T_{1}-m g$ provides the necessary centripetal force here.
$ \therefore T_{1}-m g=\frac{m v_{1}{ }^{2}}{r} $
If the tension in the string just vanishes at $3$ i.e., if $T_{3}=0$, then
$ m g=\frac{m v_{3}^{2}}{r} \text { or, } v_{3}=\sqrt{g r} $
If the velocity of the body at the highest point $3$ be less than $\sqrt{g r}$, the string will slack and the body will drop down instead of rotating in the circular path. So this minimum velocity of the body at the highest point is called the critical velocity.
Minimum velocity at the lowest point for maintaining the critical velocity :
Now, as the body goes from $3$ to $1$, its height increases by $2 r$. So its potential energy increases by $m g \times 2 r$. From the principle of conservation of mechanical energy, we have
The K.E. of the body at $3$ - Its K.E. at $1=$ Increase in P.E.
or, $1 / 2 m v_{3}^{2}-1 / 2 m v_{1}^{2}=2 m g r$
or, $v_{3}^{2}=v_{1}^{2}+4 g r$
When $v_{3}=\sqrt{g r}, v_{1}$ is minimurn
$\therefore\left(v_{1}\right)_{\min }=\sqrt{g r+4 g r}=\sqrt{5 g r}$
Minimum tension :
When the body moves with the critical velocity at the highest point, the tension in the string becomes zero; then $m g=\frac{m v_{3}^{2}}{r}$ When this condition is satisfied, the tension in the string at the lowest point $1$ becomes minimum.
So, $ \left(T_{1}\right)_{\min }=\frac{m\left(v_{1}\right)^{2} \min }{r}+\frac{m\left(v_{3}\right)^{2} \min }{r}=\frac{m}{r}(5 g r+g r)=6 \mathrm{mg} $
A curved in a level road has a radius 75 m. The maximum speed of a car turning this curved road can be 30 m/s without skidding. If radius of curved road is changed to 48 m and the coefficient of friction between the tyres and the road remains same, then maximum allowed speed would be ___________ m/s.
Explanation:
For a car to move safely around a curved road without skidding, the centripetal force needed is provided by the frictional force between the tires and the road. The relationship governing this scenario can be expressed as:
$ f_{\text{friction}} = f_{\text{centripetal}} $
The frictional force is given by:
$ f_{\text{friction}} = \mu \cdot m \cdot g $
And the centripetal force is given by:
$ f_{\text{centripetal}} = \frac{m \cdot v^2}{r} $
Where:
$\mu$ is the coefficient of friction,
$m$ is the mass of the car,
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately $9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2$),
$v$ is the speed of the car,
$r$ is the radius of the curve.
Since the frictional force equals the centripetal force, we have:
$ \mu \cdot m \cdot g = \frac{m \cdot v^2}{r} $
Cancelling $m$ from both sides (assuming $m \neq 0$) gives:
$ \mu \cdot g = \frac{v^2}{r} $
Rewriting for $v$ gives the speed:
$ v = \sqrt{\mu \cdot g \cdot r} $
For the first scenario with $r = 75 \, \text{m}$ and $v = 30 \, \text{m/s}$:
$ v_1^2 = \mu \cdot g \cdot r_1 $
Thus,
$ \mu \cdot g = \frac{v_1^2}{r_1} = \frac{30^2}{75} = \frac{900}{75} = 12 $
For the second scenario with $r_2 = 48 \, \text{m}$, the new speed $v_2$ is:
$ v_2 = \sqrt{\mu \cdot g \cdot r_2} = \sqrt{12 \times 48} $
Calculating inside the square root:
$ 12 \times 48 = 576 $
So,
$ v_2 = \sqrt{576} = 24 $
Hence, the maximum allowed speed for a curve with a radius of $48 \, \text{m}$ is 24 m/s.
Explanation:

Let the speed of bob at lowest position be v1 and at the highest position be v2.
Maximum tension is at lowest position and minimum tension is at the highest position. Now, using, conservation of mechanical energy,
${1 \over 2}mv_1^2 = {1 \over 2}mv_2^2 + mg2l$
$ \Rightarrow {v_1}^2 = {v_2}^2 + 4gl$ ..........(1)
Now, ${T_{\max }} - mg = {{mv_1^2} \over l}$
$ \Rightarrow {T_{\max }} = mg + {{mv_1^2} \over l}$
& ${T_{\min }} + mg = {{mv_2^2} \over l}$
$ \Rightarrow {T_{\min }} = {{mv_2^2} \over l} - mg$
${{{T_{\max }}} \over {{T_{\min }}}} = {5 \over 1}$
$ \Rightarrow {{mg + {{mv_1^2} \over l}} \over {{{mv_2^2} \over l} - mg}} = {5 \over 1}$
$ \Rightarrow mg + {{mv_1^2} \over l} = \left[ {{{mv_2^2} \over l} - mg} \right]5$
$ \Rightarrow mg + {m \over l}\left[ {v_2^2 + 4gl} \right] = {{5mv_2^2} \over l} - 5mg$
$ \Rightarrow mg + {{mv_2^2} \over l} + 4mg = {{5mv_2^2} \over l} - 5mg$
$ \Rightarrow 10mg = {{4mv_2^2} \over l}$
${v_2}^2 = {{10 \times 10 \times 1} \over 4}$
$ \Rightarrow {v_2}^2 = 25 \Rightarrow {v_2} = 5$ m/s
Thus, velocity of bob at highest position 5 m/s.
