IPE Overall Strategy: The total syllabus of 1st year can be divided into 3 parts. First, the student has to concentrate on Long Answer Questions (LAQ) i.e. Section-C of question paper. We can expect one question from each part of above 3 parts.
From part 1, the important questions may be like..
i) State and prove conservation of energy
ii) Newton’s laws and their applications
iii) Conservation of Angular momentum and linear momentum.
From part 2, the important questions may be like..
i) Time period simple pendulum derivation
ii) Gravitational potential energy, variation of g, determination of universal gravitational constant G
iii) Determination of Young’s modulus, Bernoulli’s theorem, Viscosity.
From part 3,
i) Newton’s laws of cooling
ii) Carnot Engine & refrigerator
iii) Pressure of an ideal gas.

Important Long Answer Questions
PART – I
1) a) State newton’s second law of motion. Hence derive the equation of motion F = ma from it.
b) A body is moving along a circular path such that its speed always remains constant. Should there be a force acting on the body?
2) Define angle of friction and angle of repose. Show that angle of friction is equal to angle of repose for a rough inclined plane. A block of repose for a rough inclined plane. A block of mass 4
kg is resting on a rough horizontal plane and is about to move when a horizontal force of 30 N is applied on it. If g = 10 ms−2. Find the total contact force exerted by the plane on the block.
3) Develop the notions of work and kinetic energy and show that it leads to work-energy theorem.
4) What are collisions? Explain the possible types of collisions? Develop the theory of one dimensional elastic collision.
