$A$ small block of mass $200 \ g$ is placed on a horizontal slab at a height of $2 \ m$ above the floor. The block is pressed against a horizontal spring fixed at one end to compress the spring by $10.0 \ cm$. Upon releasing, the block moves horizontally until it leaves the spring. Calculate the horizontal distance covered by the block after leaving the slab and just before hitting the ground. The spring constant is $50 \ N \ m^{-1}$. (Assume $g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $m$)

In a smooth stationary cart of length $d$,a small block is projected along its length with velocity $v$ towards the front. The coefficient of restitution for each collision is $e$. The cart rests on a smooth ground and can move freely. The time taken by the block to come to rest with respect to the cart is:

In the case of circular motion of a body,if a tangential force also acts on the body in addition to a centripetal force,then the work done:

The potential energy in joules of a particle of mass $1\, kg$ moving in a plane is given by $U = 3x + 4y$,where the position coordinates $x$ and $y$ are measured in metres. If the particle is initially at rest at $(6, 4)$,then:

$A$ sphere of mass $m$,moving with velocity $V$,enters a hanging bag of sand and stops. If the mass of the bag is $M$ and it is raised by height $h$,then the velocity of the sphere was

$A$ mass of $2.9 \ kg$ is suspended from a string of length $50 \ cm$ and is at rest. Another body of mass $100 \ g$,which is moving horizontally with a velocity of $150 \ m/s$,strikes and sticks to it. Subsequently,when the string makes an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the vertical,the tension in the string is $(g = 10 \ m/s^2)$. (in $N$)
