Real questions that test this

एक वस्तू निर्वात पोकळीतून गुरुत्वाकर्षण क्रिये अंतर्गत मुक्तपणे खाली पडत आहे. अश्या प्रकारच्या क्रियेमध्ये खालीलपैकी कोणत्या बाबी स्थिर राहतील ? A body is falling freely under the action of gravity alone in vacuum. Which of the following quantities remains constant during the fall ?

1)गतिज उर्जा / Kinetic energy
2)स्थितिज उर्जा / Potential energy
3)संपूर्ण यांत्रिक उर्जा / Total mechanical energy✓ Correct
4)संपूर्ण एकरेखीय संवेग / Total linear momentum

When a body falls freely under gravity in a vacuum, mechanical energy (sum of kinetic and potential energy) remains conserved and constant due to the absence of dissipative forces like air resistance.

दोन वस्तूंच्या अप्रत्यास्थ धडकेच्या दरम्यान खालीलपैकी कोणत्या बाबींचे संवर्धन होईल ? During inelastic collision between two bodies, which of the following quantities always remains conserved ?

1)संपूर्ण गतिज ऊर्जा / Total kinetic energy
2)संपूर्ण यांत्रिक ऊर्जा / Total mechanical energy
3)संपूर्ण एकरेषीय ऊर्जा / Total linear momentum✓ Correct
4)प्रत्येक वस्तूची गती / Speed of each body

During any type of collision (elastic or inelastic), total linear momentum of the system is always conserved according to Newton's laws and the law of conservation of momentum.

एका माणसाला 25 किलो वजनाची बॅग 5 मीटर उंचीवर नेण्यास 30 सेकंद लागतात, तर त्या माणसाने वापरलेली शक्ती किती ? A person carrying a bag of total mass 25 kg climbs upto a height 5 meters in 30 seconds. How much power the man needs to carry the bag ?

1)1225 W
2)40.83 W✓ Correct
3)1.64 W
4)245 W

Power is work done per unit time. Work done = mgh = 25 * 9.8 (or 10) * 5. Power = Work / Time. Calculating gives approximately 40.8 W depending on g value.

खालीलपैकी कोणती भौतिक राशी टकरीच्या दरम्यान अक्षय राहते ? Which physical quantity conserved during collision ?

1)(1) वस्तुमान / Mass
2)(2) संवेग / Momentum✓ Correct
3)(3) वेळ / Time
4)(4) लांबी / Length

According to the Law of Conservation of Momentum, the total momentum of a system of colliding objects remains constant before and after the collision (in the absence of external forces).
