$A$ block of mass $1.9\, kg$ is at rest at the edge of a table of height $1\, m$. $A$ bullet of mass $0.1\, kg$ collides with the block and sticks to it. If the velocity of the bullet is $20\, m/s$ in the horizontal direction just before the collision,then the kinetic energy just before the combined system strikes the floor is $....J$. (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$. Assume there is no rotational motion and loss of energy after the collision is negligible.)

$A$ bob $B$ of mass $m$ at rest is hanging vertically from the ceiling via a massless string of length $10 \text{ m}$. $A$ point mass $A$ of mass $m$ travelling horizontally with speed $10 \text{ ms}^{-1}$ hits bob $B$ elastically. The bob $B$ rises $h$ meters after the collision. Taking the acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \text{ ms}^{-2}$ and neglecting the size of the bob, the value of $h$ is:

The rate of doing work by a force acting on a particle moving along the $x$-axis depends on the position $x$ of the particle and is equal to $2x$. The velocity of the particle is given by the expression:

$A$ particle is moving in a circle of radius $r$ under the action of a force $F = \alpha r^2$ which is directed towards the centre of the circle. The total mechanical energy (kinetic energy + potential energy) of the particle is (take potential energy $= 0$ for $r = 0$).

Which of the following graphs correctly represents the relationship between kinetic energy $(E)$,potential energy $(U)$,and height $(h)$ from the ground for a particle moving vertically?
