$A$ small disc of mass $m = 1 \,g$ slides down a smooth hill of height $h = 10 \,cm$ from rest and gets onto a plank of mass $M = 100 \,g$ as shown in the figure. Due to friction between the disc and the plank, the disc slows down and moves as one piece with the plank. The work done by the frictional force is approximately (Use $g = 10 \,m/s^2$): (in $\,J$)

  • A

  • B
    $10$
  • C

$A$ ball falls freely from rest on to a hard horizontal floor and repeatedly bounces. If the velocity of the ball just before the first bounce is $7 \text{ m/s}$ and the coefficient of restitution is $0.75$. The total distance travelled by the ball before it comes to rest is (acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \text{ m/s}^2$) (in $\text{ m}$)

$A$ sphere of mass $m$ slides down a smooth inclined plane from a point $B$ at a height of $h$ starting from rest. The magnitude of the change in momentum of the particle between position $A$ (at the bottom of the incline) and $C$ (on the horizontal surface) is (assuming the angle of inclination of the plane is $\theta$ with respect to the horizontal):

In a one-dimensional collision between two particles,their relative velocity is $\vec{v}_1$ before the collision and $\vec{v}_2$ after the collision.
