Notes for some specific questions:


1 – Ans: B. Both vectors in A and both scalars in C and D.


2 - Ans: B. {Detailed explanations for this question is available as Solution 520 at Physics 9702 Doubts | Help Page 101 - http://physics-ref.blogspot.com/2015/04/physics-9702-doubts-help-page-101.html}


3 – Ans: A. Cannot be C since the 2 forces are not equal, so the angle of the resultant cannot be 45 degrees.


5 - Ans: C. {Detailed explanations for this question is available as Solution 834 at Physics 9702 Doubts | Help Page 166 - http://physics-ref.blogspot.com/2015/06/physics-9702-doubts-help-page-166.html}


6 - Ans: B. {Detailed explanations for this question is available as Solution 283 at Physics 9702 Doubts | Help Page 47 - http://physics-ref.blogspot.com/2015/01/physics-9702-doubts-help-page-47.html}





8 - Ans: B.


9 – Ans: D. 
A strong wind of speed33 m s-1 blows against a wall. The density of the air is1.2 kg m-3. The wall has an area of 12 m2 at right angles to the wind velocity.



11 - Ans: D. {Detailed explanations for this question is available as Solution 829 at Physics 9702 Doubts | Help Page 165 - http://physics-ref.blogspot.com/2015/06/physics-9702-doubts-help-page-165.html}



12 – Ans: A. Weight is always downward. Since the vehicle is at rest, only the weight will have a component along the slope that will cause the vehicle to go downwards. So, friction, a force which opposes motion would be in a direction opposite to the component of the weight along the slope such that the vertical component of friction would be in a direction opposite to the weight (upward). The normal reaction will be opposite to the other component of the weight.



13 – Ans: B.

14 – Ans: D. {Detailed explanations for this question is available as Solution 451 at Physics 9702 Doubts | Help Page 87 - http://physics-ref.blogspot.com/2015/03/physics-9702-doubts-help-page-87.html}

29 - Ans: C. {Detailed explanations for this question is available as Solution 840 at Physics 9702 Doubts | Help Page 167 - http://physics-ref.blogspot.com/2015/06/physics-9702-doubts-help-page-167.html}


30 - Ans: D. {Detailed explanations for this question is available as Solution 1124 at Physics 9702 Doubts | Help Page 243 - http://physics-ref.blogspot.com/2016/10/physics-9702-doubts-help-page-243.html}



32 – Ans: C. Resistance of a copper wire = ρL/A = (1.7x10-8)x2000 / (π(0.5x0.51x10-3)2)  = 166Ω. Since wires are parallel (similar to resistors in parallel), Resistance of cable = (12(1/166))-1 = 14 Ω.
