$A$ wooden block of mass $M$ is suspended by a string. $A$ bullet of mass $m$ passes through the block with velocity $v$ and emerges with a velocity $v/2$ in the same direction. To what height will the block rise?

  • A
    $m^2v^2 / 2M^2g$
  • B
    $m^2v^2 / 8M^2g$
  • C
    $mv^2 / 4Mg$
  • D

Three objects $A$,$B$,and $C$ are kept in a straight line on a frictionless horizontal surface. These have masses $m$,$2m$,and $m$,respectively. The object $A$ moves towards $B$ with a speed of $9 \ m/s$ and makes an elastic collision with it. Thereafter,$B$ makes a completely inelastic collision with $C$. All motions occur on the same straight line. Find the final speed (in $m/s$) of the object $C$.

Two wooden blocks of mass $M_1$ and $M_2$ rest on a frictionless table. $A$ bullet of mass $m$ is fired at $M_1$ with speed $v$,which gets embedded in it,and the two together finally collide with $M_2$. Find the velocity of $M_2$ after the collision. (Assume the collision between the $(M_1+m)$ system and $M_2$ is elastic and treat the problem as one-dimensional.)

$A$ small disk can slide in a circular path on a frictionless inclined plane inclined at an angle of $30^\circ$ with the help of a thread as shown. The mass of the disk is $m$ and the acceleration due to gravity is $g$. If the disk is released when the thread is horizontal,the expression for the tension in the thread at the lowest point is: ................. $mg$

$A$ lift of mass $2000 \ kg$ starts from rest in the basement and moves to the fourth floor,which is at a height of $25 \ m$. As it passes the fourth floor,its speed is $3 \ ms^{-1}$. There is a constant frictional force of $500 \ N$ acting on it. Calculate the work done by the lift's motor in $kJ$.

In two separate collisions,the coefficients of restitution $e_1$ and $e_2$ are in the ratio $3: 1$. In the first collision,the relative velocity of approach is twice the relative velocity of separation. Then,the ratio between the relative velocity of approach and the relative velocity of separation in the second collision is:
