$A$ particle of mass $m$ is acted upon by a force $F$ given by the empirical law $F = \frac{R}{t^2} v(t)$. If this law is to be tested experimentally by observing the motion starting from rest,the best way is to plot:

  • A
    $\log\, v(t)$ against $\frac{1}{t}$
  • B
    $v(t)$ against $t^2$
  • C
    $\log\, v(t)$ against $\frac{1}{t^2}$
  • D
    $v(t)$ against $t$

Column $II$ shows five systems in which two objects are labelled as $X$ and $Y$. Also in each case a point $P$ is shown. Column $I$ gives some statements about $X$ and/or $Y$. Match these statements to the appropriate system$(s)$ from Column $II$.

$(A)$ The force exerted by $X$ on $Y$ has a magnitude $Mg$. $(p)$ Block $Y$ of mass $M$ on a fixed inclined plane $X$,slides on it with a constant velocity.
$(B)$ The gravitational potential energy of $X$ is continuously increasing. $(q)$ Two ring magnets $Y$ and $Z$,each of mass $M$,are kept in a frictionless vertical plastic stand. $Y$ rests on base $X$ and $Z$ hangs in equilibrium. The system is in a lift moving up with constant velocity.
$(C)$ Mechanical energy of the system $X+Y$ is continuously decreasing. $(r)$ $A$ pulley $Y$ of mass $m_0$ is fixed to a table $X$. $A$ block of mass $M$ hangs from a string over the pulley,fixed at $P$. The system is in a lift moving down with constant velocity.
$(D)$ The torque of the weight of $Y$ about point $P$ is zero. $(s)$ $A$ sphere $Y$ of mass $M$ is released in a non-viscous liquid $X$ and moves down.

Two balls of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are separated from each other by a powder charge placed between them. The whole system is at rest on the ground. Suddenly,the powder charge explodes and the masses are pushed apart. The mass $m_1$ travels a distance $s_1$ and stops. If the coefficients of friction between the balls and the ground are the same,the mass $m_2$ stops after travelling the distance:

$Assertion$: On a rainy day,it is difficult to drive a car or bus at high speed.
$Reason$: The value of the coefficient of friction is lowered due to the wetting of the surface.

Can the work done by a frictional force be positive or negative?

Imagine a situation in which the horizontal surface of block $M_0$ is smooth and its vertical surface is rough with a coefficient of friction $\mu$. In the above problem,choose the correct value$(s)$ of $F$ for which the blocks $M$ and $m$ remain stationary with respect to $M_0$.
