प्रश्न
A girl is carrying a school bag of 3 kg mass on her back and moves 200 m on a levelled road. The work done against the gravitational force will be (g = 10 m s–2)
विकल्प
6 ×103 J
6 J
0.6 J
zero

उत्तर
zero
Explanation:
The gravitational force on the bag, i.e. the weight of the bag is in a vertically downward direction whereas the distance moved by her is in the horizontal direction. It means that the force and displacement are perpendicular to each other, therefore no work is done.

An automobile engine propels a 1000 kg car (A) along a levelled road at a speed of 36 km h–1. Find the power if the opposing frictional force is 100 N. Now, suppose after travelling a distance of 200 m, this car collides with another stationary car (B) of the same mass and comes to rest. Let its engine also stop at the same time. Now the car (B) starts moving on the same level road without getting its engine started. Find the speed of the car (B) just after the collision.
