$A$ body of mass $m$ is dropped from a height of $h$. Simultaneously,another body of mass $2m$ is thrown vertically upward with such a velocity $v$ that they collide at a height $h/2$. If the collision is perfectly inelastic,the velocity at the time of collision with the ground will be:

  • A
    $\sqrt{\frac{5gh}{4}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{gh}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{gh}{4}}$
  • D
    $\frac{\sqrt{10gh}}{3}$

Block $A$ of mass $m$ is hanging from a vertical spring of spring constant $k$ and is at rest. Block $B$ of mass $m$ strikes block $A$ with velocity $v$ and sticks to it. The velocity $v$ for which the spring just attains its natural length is:

Water falls from a height of $60 \, m$ at the rate of $15 \, kg/s$ to operate a turbine. The losses due to frictional force are $10 \%$ of the input energy. How much power is generated by the turbine? $(g=10 \, m/s^2)$ (In $kW$)

$A$ ball of mass $0.2 \ kg$ rests on a vertical post of height $5 \ m$. $A$ bullet of mass $0.01 \ kg$,traveling with a velocity $V \ m/s$ in a horizontal direction,hits the centre of the ball. After the collision,the ball and bullet travel independently. The ball hits the ground at a distance of $20 \ m$ and the bullet at a distance of $100 \ m$ from the foot of the post. The initial velocity $V$ of the bullet is

$A$ student skates up a ramp that makes an angle $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. He/she starts (as shown in the figure) at the bottom of the ramp with speed $v_0$ and wants to turn around over a semicircular path $xyz$ of radius $R$ during which he/she reaches a maximum height $h$ (at point $y$) from the ground as shown in the figure. Assume that the energy loss is negligible and the force required for this turn at the highest point is provided by his/her weight only. Then ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity):
$(A)$ $v_0^2 - 2gh = \frac{1}{2} gR$
$(B)$ $v_0^2 - 2gh = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} gR$
$(C)$ The centripetal force required at points $x$ and $z$ is zero.
$(D)$ The centripetal force required is maximum at points $x$ and $z$.

Particle $A$ of mass $m_{1}$ moving with velocity $(\sqrt{3} \hat{i} + \hat{j}) \, m/s$ collides with another particle $B$ of mass $m_{2}$ which is at rest initially. Let $\vec{V}_{1}$ and $\vec{V}_{2}$ be the velocities of particles $A$ and $B$ after collision,respectively. If $m_{1} = 2m_{2}$ and after collision $\vec{V}_{1} = (\hat{i} + \sqrt{3} \hat{j}) \, m/s$,the angle between $\vec{V}_{1}$ and $\vec{V}_{2}$ is $......^{\circ}$.
