Statement I: In high jump, it hurts less when an athlete lands on a heap of sand.
Statement II: Because of greater distance and hence greater time over which the motion of an athlete is stopped, the athlete experieces less force when lands on the heap of sand.

A

Statement I is true, statement II is true, Statement II is the correct explanation for statement I.

B

Statemet I is true, Statement II is true , Statement II is NOT the correct explanation for Statement I

C

Statement I is True, Statement II is False.

D

Statement I is False, Statement II is true

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`F=(Delta p)/(Delta t)`. If `Delta t` is more, then F will be less.

Statement -I : Energy emitted when an electron jump from 5rarr2 (energy level) is less than when an electron jump from 2rarr1 in all 'H' like atom. Statement -II : The|total energy dofference| between 1^(st) & 2^(nd) energy level is greater than that of any two energy level provided level 1 is not part of those two energy levels.

(i) In the system shown in figure, find the time period of vertical oscillations of the block A. Both the blocks A and B have equal mass of m and the force constant of the ideal spring is k. Pulley and threads are massless (ii) In the arrangement shown in the figure the spring, string and the pulley are mass less. The force constant of the spring is k. A rope of mass per unit length equal to lamda (kg m^(-1)) hangs from the string as shown. In equilibrium a length L of the rope is in air and its bottom part lies in a heap on the floor. The rope is very thin and size of the heap is negligible though the heap contains a fairly long length of the rope. The rope is raised by a very small distance and released. Show that motion will be simple harmonic and calculate the time period. Assume that the hanging part of the rope does not experience any force from the heap or the floor (For example there is no impact force while the rope hits the floor while moving downward and there is no impulsive pull when the vertical part jerks a small element of heap into motion).

Statement I: The apparent freqeuncy which is the frequency as noted by an observer or an observing detection device of the acoustic wave that moves from the source to the observer propagating in a medium may be different from its true frequency. Statement II: A source in motion relative to an observer sends out less or more number of waves per metre distance in the medium and an observer in motion collects less or more number of waves per second that when both of them remain at rest relatively.
