20. Column I described some situations in which a small object moves. Column II describes some characteristics of these motions. Match the situations in Column I with the characteristics in Column II.
Column I |
Column II |
||
(A) |
The object moves n the |
(p) |
The object exercises a simple harmonic motion. |
(B) |
The object moves on the x-axis in such a way that its velocity and its displacement from the origin satisfy v = -kx, where k is a positive constant. |
(q) |
The object does not change its direction. |
(C) |
The object is attached to one end of a mass-less spring of a given spring constant. The other end of the spring is attached to the ceiling of an elevator. Initially everything is at rest. The elevator starts going upwards with a constant acceleration a. The motion of the object is observed from the elevator during the period it maintains this accelerations. |
(r) |
The kinetic energy of the object keeps on decreasing. |
(D) |
The object is projected from the earth's surface vertically upwards with a speed 2√(GMe/Rer) , where, Me is the mass of the earth and Re is the radius of the earth. Neglect forces from objects other than the earth. |
(s) |
The object can change its direction only once. |
21. Two wires each carrying a steady current I are shown in four configurations in Column I. Some of the resulting effects are described in Column II. Match the statements in Column I with the statements in Column II.
Column I |

|
(B) |
Point P is situated at the mid-point of the line joining the centers, of the circular wires, which have same radii. |
(q) |
The magnetic fields (B) at P due to the currents in the wires are in opposite directions. |
|
(C) |
Point P is situated at the mid-point of the line joining the centers of the circular wires, which have same radii. |
(r) |
There is no magnetic field at P. |
|
(D) |
Point P is situated at the common center of the wires. |
(s) |
The wires repel each other. |
