$A$ block of mass $2\,kg$ moving on a horizontal surface with speed of $4\,ms^{-1}$ enters a rough surface ranging from $x = 0.5\,m$ to $x = 1.5\,m$. The retarding force in this range of rough surface is related to distance by $F = -kx$ where $k = 12\,Nm^{-1}$. The speed of the block as it just crosses the rough surface will be ........... $ms^{-1}$.

  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $1.5$
  • C
    $2.0$
  • D

The figure shows the variation of a force $F$ acting on a particle along the $x$-axis. If the particle begins at rest at $x=0$,what is the particle's coordinate when it again has zero speed?

The graphs below show the magnitude of the force on a particle as the particle moves along the positive $x$ axis from the origin to $x = x_1$. The force is parallel to the $x$ axis and is conservative. The maximum magnitude $F_1$ has the same value for all graphs. Rank the situations according to the change in the potential energy associated with the force,from least (or most negative) to greatest (or most positive).

If a position-dependent force $F(x) = (3x^2 - 2x + 7) \text{ N}$ acting on a body of mass $2 \text{ kg}$ displaces it from $x = 0 \text{ m}$ to $x = 5 \text{ m}$,then the work done by the force is: (in $J$)

$A$ force $F = \alpha + \beta x^2$ acts on an object in the $x$-direction. The work done by the force is $5 \ J$ when the object is displaced by $1 \ m$. If the constant $\alpha = 1 \ N$,then $\beta$ will be: (in $N/m^2$)

$A$ block of mass $2 \ kg$ is initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. $A$ horizontal force $\overrightarrow{F} = (9 - x^2) \hat{i} \ N$ acts on it, starting from $x = 0$. The maximum kinetic energy of the block between $x = 0$ and $x = 3 \ m$ in joules is:
