$A$ bullet of mass $0.1\, kg$ is fired into a wooden block to pierce through it,but it stops after moving a distance of $50\, cm$ into it. If the velocity of the bullet before hitting the wood is $10\, m/s$ and it slows down with uniform deceleration,then the magnitude of the effective retarding force on the bullet is $'x'\, N$. The value of $'x'$ to the nearest integer is:

  • A
    $7$
  • B
    $8$
  • C
    $10$
  • D
    $12$

Among the forces in nature,friction can be classified into

Two situations are shown in figures $(a)$ and $(b)$. In each case,$m_1 = 3 \ kg$ and $m_2 = 4 \ kg$. If $a_1$ and $a_2$ are the respective accelerations of the blocks in these situations,then the values of $a_1$ and $a_2$ are respectively [ $g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$ ]

The system shown in the figure is in equilibrium and at rest. The spring and string are massless. Now,the string is cut. The acceleration of mass $2m$ and $m$ just after the string is cut will be:

$A$ truck starting from rest moves with an acceleration of $5 \, m/s^2$ for $1 \, s$ and then moves with constant velocity. The velocity $w.r.t$ ground $v/s$ time graph for the block in the truck is (Assume that the block does not fall off the truck and the coefficient of friction $\mu = 0.2$):
