The mass of a person is $60 \, kg$. If he gains $10^5 \, \text{calories}$ of heat energy from food and the efficiency of his body is $28 \%$,then up to what height can he climb? (approximately) ($g = 9.8 \, m/s^2$,$J = 4.2 \, J/\text{cal}$)

  • A
    $100$
  • B
    $200$
  • C
    $400$
  • D

$A$ dumbbell consisting of two masses $m$ each,connected by a light rigid rod of length $l$,falls from a height $h$ onto two pads of equal height,one steel and the other brass. The coefficients of restitution are $e_1$ and $e_2$ $(e_1 < e_2)$. To what maximum height will the centre of mass of the dumbbell rise after bouncing off the pads?

$A$ sphere of mass $m$ slides down a smooth inclined plane from a point $B$ at a height of $h$ starting from rest. The magnitude of the change in momentum of the particle between position $A$ (at the bottom of the incline) and $C$ (on the horizontal surface) is (assuming the angle of inclination of the plane is $\theta$ with respect to the horizontal):

Consider a drop of rain water having mass $1\,g$ falling from a height of $1\,km$. It hits the ground with a speed of $50\,m s^{-1}$. Take $g = 10\,m s^{-2}$. The work done by the $(i)$ gravitational force and the $(ii)$ resistive force of air is

$A$ free body of mass $8 \, kg$ is travelling at $2 \, m/s$ in a straight line. At a certain instant,the body splits into two equal parts due to an internal explosion which releases $16 \, J$ of energy. Neither part leaves the original line of motion. Finally:

$A$ particle of mass $m$ is moving along the $x$-axis with initial velocity $u \hat{i}$. It collides elastically with a particle of mass $10m$ at rest and then moves with half its initial kinetic energy (see figure). If $\sin \theta_{1} = \sqrt{n} \sin \theta_{2}$,then the value of $n$ is:
