A particle’s motion is given by \( x = 2 \cos (5t - \frac{\pi}{4}) \) (in m). What is its kinetic energy at \( x = 1 \,

**Oscillation of mass attached to spring** follows Hooke's law F = -k x, SHM with ω = √(k/m). Effective stiffness for two identical springs in parallel doubles, k_eff = 2k, increasing frequency by √2, while series halves stiffness to k/2, lowering frequency. Energy E = ½ k_eff A². Total energy: E = (1/2) k A² = (1/2) m ω² A² = 0.5 × 1 × 5² × 2² = 50 J . Potential energy: U = (1/2) m ω² x² = 0.5 × 1 × 25 × 1² = 12.5 J . Kinetic energy: K = E - U = 50 - 12.5 = 37.5

A force F\=7i^+3j^N acts at r\=−2i^+1j^m. What is the magnitude of the torque about the origin?

τ = r×F = |i^j^k^−210730| = k^((−2)×3−1×7) = k^(−6−7) = −13k^Nm. Magnitude = 13Nm. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to 13 Nm. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option B is scientifically correct.

A 3kg particle moves with velocity v\=6i^−4j^m/s at r\=2j^m. What is the z-component of its angular momentum?

L = r×p = |i^j^k^0206−40| = k^(0×(−4)−2×6) = −12k^kg m2/s. Z-component = −12kg m2/s. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to -12 kg m²/s. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option B is scientifically correct.
