Question Style in MHT CET Work, Energy and Power PYQs

Every question in this PDF is a single-correct MCQ. Most are short calculations that need one formula and a substitution, and a few ask for a statement about energy in circular motion.

Question Style	What it Tests
Power from a force that varies with time	A 1 kg body moving under F = (t i + 3t² j) N or (t i + 2t² j) N, and the power developed at a given instant
Work from force and displacement vectors	Work done when a constant force acts through a displacement given as a vector, and finding an unknown component from the work done
Spring work and energy	Work done in stretching a spring by x and then by a further x, the potential energy at 3 cm and 9 cm, and a block that compresses a spring
Kinetic energy and momentum comparisons	Which of a light and a heavy body has more momentum when their kinetic energies are equal, and the stopping distance of a vehicle with momentum p
Energy in circular motion	The total energy of a particle at different positions of a vertical circle, and the tension in a string at the lowest point

How to Use the Work, Energy and Power PYQ PDF for MHT CET

Start with the 2025 and 2026 papers first, because they hold 9 of the 24 questions.
Write down W = F·s, P = F·v, the spring energy (1/2)kx² and K = p²/2m before you start, because they settle most of the 24 questions.
For the time-dependent force questions, integrate the acceleration to get velocity first and then use P = F·v.
Solve year-wise PYQs by timing yourself, as time management is crucial.
Re-attempt only the questions you got wrong, and note which formula or step you missed.
