Multiple choice force exerted by collision collisions work, energy and power mechanics physics

During any collision

  1. Momentum is conserved

  2. Linetic energy is conserved

  3. Both conserved

  4. All
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

During any collision, the momentum is conserved but the kinetic energy is not. This is because during collision, a part of kinetic energy is converted into heat sound energies.

For two body system, the forces they apply on each other during collision with each other are

  1. external forces on the system

  2. internal forces within the system but external forces on each body

  3. external forces on the system but internal forces on each body

  4. None

A Correct answer
Explanation

When we consider two body as one system, any interaction between them is internal. But when we consider one body (as system), the force applied by the other body is external force.

In the game of cricket, the stumps falls when the ball strikes them. This is an example of

  1. Contact force

  2. Non contact force

  3. Displacement force

  4. None
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
When a speeding ball strakees stumps, they came in contact with each other, due to that a contact force greater between the two.
This face pushes the $3$ function in the direction of motion of the ball resulting it to fall off. 
option $A$ is correct






Multiple choice force exerted by collision collisions work, energy and power mechanics physics

Two bodies of equal masses moving with equal velocities in opposite direction collide the resultant velocity of combination is

  1. v

  2. 2v

  3. -v

  4. zero

D Correct answer
Explanation

When two equal masses moving with equal but opposite velocities collies. Their velocities cancel each other and net velocity becomes zero.

Multiple choice force exerted by collision collisions work, energy and power mechanics physics

All collision conserves

  1. Kinetic energy

  2. Potential energy

  3. Momentum

  4. All of the above

C Correct answer
Explanation
According to the collision theory, all collisions are conserved in momentum in both elastic and inelastic collision. KE is conserved in elastic collision but not in inelastic collision.

A billiard ball moving with a speed of $5  {m}/{s}$ collides with an identical ball originally at rest. If the first ball stops after collision then the second ball will move forward with a speed 

  1. $10 {m}/{s}$
  2. $5 {m}/{s}$
  3. $2.5 {m}/{s}$
  4. $1 {m}/{s}$

B Correct answer
Explanation

In elastic head collision velocities get interchanged.
