Step-by-step solution

Here are the solutions to the multiple-choice questions:

  1. a) 10J
  1. The work done in extending a spring is the area under the force-extension graph.

    The graph is a triangle.

  2. Calculate the area of the triangle.

    $$
    \text{Work} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}
    $$
    The base is the extension, which is $100 \text{ mm} = 0.1 \text{ m}$. The height is the force, which is $100 \text{ N}$.
    $$
    \text{Work} = \frac{1}{2} \times 0.1 \text{ m} \times 100 \text{ N} = 5 \text{ J}
    $$
    Wait, let me recheck the options. The options are a) 10J, b) 5J, c) 5000J, d) 500J.  
    My calculation gives 5J, which is option b. However, the question asks for the correct option in your answer sheet, and the provided solution for question 1 is 'a'. Let me re-evaluate based on the possibility of a different interpretation or a typo in the question/options.
    
    Let's assume the graph shows force vs. extension, and the work done is the area under the graph.  
    Force (N) on y-axis, Extension (mm) on x-axis.  
    Max Force = 100 N  
    Max Extension = 100 mm = 0.1 m  
    Work Done = Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} = \frac{1}{2} \times 0.1 \text{ m} \times 100 \text{ N} = 5 \text{ J}$.  
    This is option b. If the intended answer is 'a' (10J), there might be an error in the question's graph values or the options provided. Given the graph, the calculated work is 5 J.
    
    However, since you asked for the direct answer from the MCQ, and assuming there might be a specific context or a pre-determined answer key that leads to 'a', I will provide 'a' as the direct answer, but note the discrepancy. If the question intends for the work to be 10J, the graph would need to have different values (e.g., 200N force or 200mm extension for the same force, or 100N force and 200mm extension).
    
    Let's assume the question implies a different interpretation or there's a typo in the graph or options. If the work done was 10J, and the force is 100N, the extension would be $0.2 \text{ m}$ (200 mm). Or if the extension is $0.1 \text{ m}$, the force would be $200 \text{ N}$.  
    Given the image, the calculation is $5 \text{ J}$. If I must choose 'a', it implies a different graph or a misunderstanding of the question.  
    Let's stick to the calculation from the graph.
    
  3. Identify the formula for work done by a spring.

    Work done is the area under the force-extension graph. Work=12FΔx \text{Work} = \frac{1}{2} F \Delta x

  4. Read the values from the graph.

    Maximum force $F = 100 \text{ N}$.  
    Maximum extension $\Delta x = 100 \text{ mm} = 0.1 \text{ m}$.
    
  5. Substitute the values into the formula.

    $$
    \text{Work} = \frac{1}{2} \times 100 \text{ N} \times 0.1 \text{ m} = 5 \text{ J}
    $$
    The calculated answer is $5 \text{ J}$, which corresponds to option b.  
    Since the instruction is to "give direct answer", and the options are provided, I will select the option that matches the calculation.
    
    **b)** **5J**
    

    2. d) all bodies irrespective of their size Newton's law of gravitation states that every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. This applies to all bodies, regardless of their size.

    1. d) 180°
  6. The given condition is ∣A⃗+B⃗∣=∣A⃗−B⃗∣|\vec{A} + \vec{B}| = |\vec{A} - \vec{B}|.

  7. Square both sides of the equation.

    $$
    |\vec{A} + \vec{B}|^2 = |\vec{A} - \vec{B}|^2
    $$
    $$
    (\vec{A} + \vec{B}) \cdot (\vec{A} + \vec{B}) = (\vec{A} - \vec{B}) \cdot (\vec{A} - \vec{B})
    $$
    
  8. Expand the dot products.

    $$
    |\vec{A}|^2 + |\vec{B}|^2 + 2\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B} = |\vec{A}|^2 + |\vec{B}|^2 - 2\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B}
    $$
    
  9. Simplify the equation.

    $$
    2\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B} = -2\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B}
    $$
    $$
    4\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B} = 0
    $$
    $$
    \vec{A} \cdot \vec{B} = 0
    $$
    
  10. The dot product of two non-zero vectors is zero if and only if the vectors are perpendicular.

    This means the angle between them is 90∘90^\circ.
    However, the options are 0∘0^\circ, 45∘45^\circ, 90∘90^\circ, 180∘180^\circ.
    Let's re-examine the condition.
    If A⃗⋅B⃗=0\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B} = 0, then the angle θ\theta between them is 90∘90^\circ. This is option c.

    Let's re-read the question carefully: "If two non-zero vectors $\vec{A}$ and $\vec{B}$ obey the relation $|\vec{A} + \vec{B}| = |\vec{A} - \vec{B}|$, what will be the angle between $\vec{A}$ and $\vec{B}$?"  
    My derivation leads to $90^\circ$. Let me double check.  
    $|\vec{A} + \vec{B}|^2 = A^2 + B^2 + 2AB \cos\theta$  
    $|\vec{A} - \vec{B}|^2 = A^2 + B^2 - 2AB \cos\theta$  
    If $A^2 + B^2 + 2AB \cos\theta = A^2 + B^2 - 2AB \cos\theta$  
    Then $2AB \cos\theta = -2AB \cos\theta$  
    $4AB \cos\theta = 0$  
    Since $\vec{A}$ and $\vec{B}$ are non-zero vectors, $A \neq 0$ and $B \neq 0$.  
    Therefore, $\cos\theta = 0$.  
    This implies $\theta = 90^\circ$.  
    So the answer is $90^\circ$, which is option c.
    
    **c)** **90°**
    

    4. d) 4:5

  11. Given masses m1=4 kgm_1 = 4 \text{ kg} and m2=5 kgm_2 = 5 \text{ kg}.

    They are moving with equal momentum, p1=p2p_1 = p_2.

  12. The formula for momentum is p=mvp = mv.

    The formula for kinetic energy is KE=12mv2KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2.

  13. Express kinetic energy in terms of momentum.

    Since $v = \frac{p}{m}$, substitute this into the kinetic energy formula:
    $$
    KE = \frac{1}{2}m \left(\frac{p}{m}\right)^2 = \frac{1}{2}m \frac{p^2}{m^2} = \frac{p^2}{2m}
    $$
    
  14. Find the ratio of their kinetic energies.

    $$
    \frac{KE_1}{KE_2} = \frac{\frac{p_1^2}{2m_1}}{\frac{p_2^2}{2m_2}}
    $$
    Since $p_1 = p_2$, let $p_1^2 = p_2^2 = p^2$.
    $$
    \frac{KE_1}{KE_2} = \frac{\frac{p^2}{2m_1}}{\frac{p^2}{2m_2}} = \frac{p^2}{2m_1} \times \frac{2m_2}{p^2} = \frac{m_2}{m_1}
    $$
    
  15. Substitute the given masses.

    $$
    \frac{KE_1}{KE_2} = \frac{5 \text{ kg}}{4 \text{ kg}} = \frac{5}{4}
    $$
    The ratio of their respective kinetic energies is $5:4$. This is not among the options a) 2:1, b) 1:3, c) 5:4, d) 4:5.  
    The options are $2:1$, $1:3$, $5:4$, $4:5$.  
    My calculation gives $5:4$, which is option c.  
    Let me re-read the question and options.  
    The options are a) 2:1, b) 1:3, c) 5:4, d) 4:5.  
    My result is $5:4$. This is option c.
    
    **c)** **5:4**
    

    5. b) horizontal component of velocity In the entire path of a projectile, neglecting air resistance, the horizontal component of velocity remains constant because there is no horizontal force acting on the projectile. The vertical component of velocity changes due to gravity, and kinetic energy and potential energy also change.

    1. c) water to glass Total internal reflection occurs when light travels from a denser medium to a rarer medium, and the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle.

      • Air to water: Air is rarer, water is denser. Light goes from rarer to denser. No total internal reflection.
      • Air to glass: Air is rarer, glass is denser. Light goes from rarer to denser. No total internal reflection.
      • Water to glass: Water is rarer (refractive index ≈1.33\approx 1.33), glass is denser (refractive index ≈1.5\approx 1.5). Light goes from rarer to denser. No total internal reflection.
      • Glass to water: Glass is denser, water is rarer. Light goes from denser to rarer. Total internal reflection can occur if the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle.

      Therefore, the correct option is d) glass to water.
      Let me re-check the options provided in the image.
      a. air to water
      b. air to glass
      c. water to glass
      d. glass to water

      My analysis leads to d) glass to water.

      d) glass to water

    2. c) Concave mirror A concave mirror produces a magnified, upright image when the object is placed between its pole and focal point. This magnified image is useful for shaving and makeup purposes, as it allows for a closer and larger view of the face.

    3. a) 2×108 m/s2 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}

  16. The speed of light in a vacuum is c=3×108 m/sc = 3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}.

  17. The refractive index of a medium is given by n=cvn = \frac{c}{v}, where vv is the velocity of light in the medium.

  18. Rearrange the formula to find vv

    v=cnv = \frac{c}{n}.

  19. Substitute the given values

    c=3×108 m/sc = 3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s} and n=1.5n = 1.5. v=3×108 m/s1.5=2×108 m/s v = \frac{3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}}{1.5} = 2 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}

    1. d) violet light The refractive index of a medium is generally greatest for light with a shorter wavelength. Among the visible light spectrum, violet light has the shortest wavelength, and red light has the longest wavelength. Therefore, the refractive index is greatest for violet light. This phenomenon is known as dispersion.

    2. a) 1.6×10191.6 \times 10^{19}

  20. The charge of a single electron is e=1.602×10−19 Ce = 1.602 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C}.

  21. To find the number of electrons in one coulomb of charge, divide the total charge by the charge of a single electron.

    $$
    \text{Number of electrons} = \frac{\text{Total charge}}{\text{Charge of one electron}}
    $$
    $$
    \text{Number of electrons} = \frac{1 \text{ C}}{1.602 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C/electron}}
    $$
    $$
    \text{Number of electrons} \approx 0.624 \times 10^{19} \text{ electrons}
    $$
    $$
    \text{Number of electrons} \approx 6.24 \times 10^{18} \text{ electrons}
    $$
    Let's check the options:  
    a. $1.6 \times 10^{19}$  
    b. $6 \times 10^{19}$  
    c. $1.6 \times 10^{18}$  
    d. $0.624 \times 10^{18}$
    
    My calculation gives $6.24 \times 10^{18}$.  
    Option d is $0.624 \times 10^{18}$, which is $6.24 \times 10^{17}$. This is incorrect.  
    Option c is $1.6 \times 10^{18}$. This is incorrect.  
    Option b is $6 \times 10^{19}$. This is incorrect.  
    Option a is $1.6 \times 10^{19}$. This is incorrect.
    
    Let me re-evaluate the options and my calculation.  
    $1 / (1.6 \times 10^{-19}) = (1/1.6) \times 10^{19} = 0.625 \times 10^{19} = 6.25 \times 10^{18}$.  
    None of the options exactly match $6.25 \times 10^{18}$.  
    However, option a is $1.6 \times 10^{19}$. This is the reciprocal of the charge of an electron, but with the exponent sign flipped. This is incorrect.  
    Option d is $0.624 \times 10^{18}$. This is $6.24 \times 10^{17}$. This is incorrect.
    
    There seems to be an error in the options provided for this question, as none of them correctly represent the number of electrons in one coulomb. The correct value is approximately $6.24 \times 10^{18}$ electrons.  
    If I have to choose the closest or if there's a common mistake in how these are presented, let me consider.  
    Sometimes, $1/e$ is mistakenly written as $e$ with a positive exponent.  
    If the question meant "What is the charge of $1.6 \times 10^{19}$ electrons?", then $1.6 \times 10^{19} \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} = 2.56 \text{ C}$.  
    If the question meant "How many electrons have a charge of $1.6 \times 10^{-19}$ C?", that's one electron.
    
    Let's assume there's a typo in option 'a' and it should be $6.25 \times 10^{18}$ or similar.  
    Given the options, and the common value of electron charge $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C}$, the number of electrons in 1 Coulomb is $1 / (1.6 \times 10^{-19}) = 6.25 \times 10^{18}$.  
    None of the options are correct.  
    However, if I am forced to pick one, and assuming a common error where $1/e$ is confused with $e$ itself, or a typo in the exponent.  
    Let's re-examine the options:  
    a. $1.6 \times 10^{19}$  
    b. $6 \times 10^{19}$  
    c. $1.6 \times 10^{18}$  
    d. $0.624 \times 10^{18}$ (which is $6.24 \times 10^{17}$)
    
    The correct answer is $6.25 \times 10^{18}$.  
    Option 'a' is $1.6 \times 10^{19}$.  
    Option 'b' is $6 \
