On the basis of dimensions, decide which of the following relations for the displacement of a particle undergoing simple harmonic motion is/are not correct.
(a) \(y = a\sin \left(2\pi t / T\right)\)
(b) \(y = a\sin(vt)\)
(c) \(y = \left({\dfrac a T}\right) \sin \left({\dfrac t a}\right)\)
(d) \(y = a \sqrt 2 \left(\sin \left({\dfrac {2 \pi t} T}\right) - \cos \left({\dfrac {2 \pi t} T}\right)\right)\)
(Symbols have their usual meanings.)
Choose the correct option:
1. (a), (c)
2. (a), (b)
3. (b), (c)
4. (a), (d)
Young's modulus of steel is \(1.9 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2\). When expressed in CGS units of \(\mathrm{dyne/cm^2}\), it will be equal to: \((1 \mathrm{~N}=10^5 \text { dyne, } 1 \mathrm{~m}^2=10^4 \mathrm{~cm}^2)\)
1. \( 1.9 \times 10^{10} \)
2. \( 1.9 \times 10^{11} \)
3. \( 1.9 \times 10^{12} \)
4. \( 1.9 \times 10^9\)
The numbers \(2.745\) and \(2.735\) on rounding off to \(3\) significant figures will give respectively,
1. | \(2.75\) and \(2.74\) | 2. | \(2.74\) and \(2.73\) |
3. | \(2.75\) and \(2.73\) | 4. | \(2.74\) and \(2.74\) |
The mass and volume of a body are \(4.237~\text{grams}\) and \(2.5~\text{cm}^3\), respectively. The density of the material of the body in correct significant figures will be:
1. \(1.6048~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
2. \(1.69~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
3. \(1.7~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
4. \(1.695~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
The sum of the numbers \(436.32,227.2,\) and \(0.301\) in the appropriate significant figures is:

3. \(4.80 \times 10^{-6} ~\mathrm{rad} \)
4. \(1.75 \times 10^{-2} ~\mathrm{rad}\)
The angle of \(1^\circ\) (degree) will be equal to:
(Use \(360^\circ=2\pi\) rad)
1. \(1.034\times10^{-3}\) rad
2. \(1.745\times10^{-2}\) rad
3. \(1.524\times10^{-2}\) rad
4. \(1.745\times10^{3}\) rad
