$A$ particle of mass $m$ is projected from the ground with an initial speed $u_0$ at an angle $\alpha$ with the horizontal. At the highest point of its trajectory,it makes a completely inelastic collision with another identical particle,which was thrown vertically upward from the ground with the same initial speed $u_0$. The angle that the composite system makes with the horizontal immediately after the collision is :

  • A
    $\frac{\pi}{4}$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi}{4}+\alpha$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi}{4}-\alpha$
  • D
    $\frac{\pi}{2}$

$A$ bullet of mass $10 \ g$ pierces through a plate $A$ of mass $500 \ g$ and then gets embedded into a second plate $B$ of mass $1.49 \ kg$ as shown in the figure. Initially,the two plates $A$ and $B$ are at rest and move with the same velocity after the collision. The percentage loss in the initial kinetic energy of the bullet when it is between the plates $A$ and $B$ is . . . . . . (Neglect any loss of material of the plates during the collision).

$A$ $70\, kg$ man leaps vertically into the air from a crouching position. To take the leap,the man pushes the ground with a constant force $F$ to raise himself. The center of gravity rises by $0.5\, m$ before he leaves the ground. After the leap,the center of gravity rises by another $1\, m$. The maximum power delivered by the muscles is: (Take $g = 10\, ms^{-2}$)

$A$ train is moving along the tracks at a constant speed $u$. $A$ girl on the train throws a ball of mass $m$ straight ahead along the direction of motion of the train with speed $v$ with respect to herself. Then

Three blocks $A, B$ and $C$ are kept as shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between $A$ and $B$ is $0.2$,$B$ and $C$ is $0.1$,and $C$ and the ground is $0.0$. The masses of $A, B$ and $C$ are $3\, kg, 2\, kg$ and $1\, kg$ respectively. $A$ is given a horizontal velocity of $10\, m/s$. Blocks $A, B$ and $C$ always remain in contact and move together as a single system. The total work done by friction will be ........ $J$.
