- In a vernier callipers 1 main scale division is 1 mm
and there are 10 divisions on vernier scale which
match with 9 divisions on main scale. When there
is no object between the jaws (when they are in
contact) the zero mark of the vernier scale is to the
le of zeroth mark of main scale and 8th division of
vernier scale coincided with one of the main scale
divisions. When a plate is kept between the jaws
zeroth mark of vernier scale crossed 12 mm mark
on the main scale and vernier coincidence is 3. e
correct thickness of the plate is
(a) 121.1 mm (b) 12.5 mm
(c) 13.1 mm (d) 11.5 mm - A block of mass 4 kg is
placed on an another
block of mass 6 kg which
is placed on a rough
horizontal surface as
shown in the figure. m= 0.1
m= 0.8

4 kg F
What maximum force that could be applied
on 4 kg block in horizontal direction so that
there is no relative slipping between the blocks?
(g = 10 m s–2)
(a) 46.6 N (b) 32 N (c) 42 N (d) 38.8 N
- e system of mass A and B Shown in gure is
released from rest from x = 0. Find maximum
displacement of block B.
(a) 82 m (b) 42 m (c) 16 2m (d) 8 m

hysics Musing was started in August 2013 issue of Physics For You. The aim of Physics Musing is to augment the chances of bright students
preparing for JEE (Main and Advanced) / NEET / AIIMS / JIPMER with additional study material.
In every issue of Physics For You, 10 challenging problems are proposed in various topics of JEE (Main and Advanced) / NEET. The detailed solutions
of these problems will be published in next issue of Physics For You.
The readers who have solved five or more problems may send their detailed solutions with their names and complete address. The names of those
who send atleast five correct solutions will be published in the next issue.
We hope that our readers will enrich their problem solving skills through “Physics Musing” and stand in better stead while facing the competitive exams.
