$A$ bullet of $10\, \text{g}$, moving with velocity $v$, collides head-on with the stationary bob of a pendulum and recoils with velocity $100\, \text{m/s}$. The length of the pendulum is $0.5\, \text{m}$ and the mass of the bob is $1\, \text{kg}$. The minimum value of $v$ in $\text{m/s}$ so that the pendulum completes a vertical circle is: (Assume the string to be inextensible and $g=10\, \text{m/s}^2$)

$A$ pendulum of length $2 \; m$ consists of a wooden bob of mass $50 \; g$. $A$ bullet of mass $75 \; g$ is fired towards the stationary bob with a speed $v$. The bullet emerges out of the bob with a speed $\frac{v}{3}$ and the bob just completes the vertical circle. The value of $v$ is $\dots \; ms^{-1}$. (if $g = 10 \; m/s^2$)

$A$ curved surface is shown in the figure. The portion $BCD$ is free of friction. There are three spherical balls of identical radii and masses. Balls are released from rest one by one from $A$,which is at a slightly greater height than $C$.
With the surface $AB$,ball $1$ has large enough friction to cause rolling down without slipping; ball $2$ has a small friction and ball $3$ has a negligible friction.
$(a)$ For which balls is total mechanical energy conserved?
$(b)$ Which ball$(s)$ can reach $D$?
$(c)$ For balls which do not reach $D$,which of the balls can reach back $A$?
