applied force, then the block of wood is at the verge of moving but it will show no physical motion.
Therefore, C is an incorrect option. In view of the above discussion, E is an incorrect option.
Question 5
A wheel is rotating with a constant acceleration of 5 rad/s
2
. After an angular displacement of
2π radians, the angular velocity of the wheel becomes 70 rad/s. What was the initial angular
velocity of the wheel?
A. 6.5 rad/s
B. 7.8 rad/s
C. 7.2 rad/s
D. 5.6 rad/s
E. 7.1 rad/s
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Here we will apply the equation of rotational motion, which is given as
ω
f
= ω
i
+ 2αθ ------------ (1)
Putting the values in equation 1 we get
70 = ω
i
+ (2 * 5 * 2π) (π = 3.14)
70 = ω
i
+ 62.8 Or ω
i
= 7.2 rad/s
Therefore, C is the correct answer option.
Question 6
A ball weighing 70 N falls from a height of 3 m. What would be the kinetic energy of the ball
when it hits the ground?
A. 200 J
B. 195 J
C. 210 J
D. 180 J
E. 22.5 J
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Energy or work done is given as
E = Fd -------------- (1)
Putting the values in equation 1 we get
E = 70 * 30 Or E = 210 J
Therefore, C is the correct answer option.
