MCQ
A wheel is subjected to uniform angular acceleration about its axis. Initially its angular velocity is zero. In the first $2$ sec, it rotates through an angle ${\theta _1}$. In the next $2$ sec, it rotates through an additional angle ${\theta _2}$. The ratio of ${\theta _2}\over{\theta _1}$ is
  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • $3$
  • D
    $5$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$3$
c
(c) Using relation $\theta = {\omega _0}t + \frac{1}{2}a{t^2}$

${\theta _1} = \frac{1}{2}(\alpha ){(2)^2} = 2\alpha $…$(i)$ (As ${\omega _0} = 0,t = 2\,\sec $)

Now using same equation for $t = 4 \,sec$, $\omega_0 = 0$

${\theta _1} + {\theta _2} = \frac{1}{2}\alpha {(4)^2} = 8\alpha $…$(ii)$

From $(i)$ and $(ii)$,

${\theta _1} = 2\alpha $and${\theta _2} = 6\alpha $    $\frac{{{\theta _2}}}{{{\theta _1}}} = 3$

An ideal gas, initially in state $\left( P _{12}, V _1, T _1\right)$ is expanded isobarically to $\left( P _{12}, V _2, T _2\right)$, then adiabatically $\left( P _{34}, V _3, T _3\right)$. It is then contracted isobarically to $\left( P _{34}, V _4, T _4\right)$ and finally adiabatically back to the initial state. The efficiency of this cycle is
