Two massless strings of length $5\, m$ hang from the ceiling very near to each other as shown in the figure. Two balls $A$ and $B$ of masses $0.25\, kg$ and $0.5\, kg$ are attached to the strings. The ball $A$ is released from rest at a height of $0.45\, m$ as shown in the figure. The collision between the two balls is completely elastic. Immediately after the collision,the kinetic energy of ball $B$ is $1\, J$. The velocity of ball $A$ just after the collision is

  • A
    $5\, m/s$ to the right
  • B

Two spheres $S_1$ and $S_2$ of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ respectively collide with each other. Initially, $S_1$ is at rest and $S_2$ is moving with velocity $v$ along the $x$-axis. After the collision, $S_2$ has a velocity $\frac{v}{2}$ in a direction perpendicular to the original direction. The sphere $S_1$ moves after the collision:

$A$ bullet of mass $4\,g$ is fired horizontally with a speed of $300\,m/s$ into a $0.8\,kg$ block of wood at rest on a table. If the coefficient of friction between the block and the table is $0.3$,how far will the block slide approximately (in $,m$)?

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ of mass $m$ and $2m$ respectively are placed on a smooth floor. They are connected by a spring of negligible mass. $A$ third body $C$ of mass $m$ is placed on the floor. The body $C$ moves with a velocity $v_0$ along the line joining $A$ and $B$ and collides elastically with $A$. At a certain time after the collision,it is found that the instantaneous velocities of $A$ and $B$ are the same and the compression of the spring is $x_0$. The spring constant $k$ will be
