Two particles of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ in projectile motion have velocities $\vec{v}_1$ and $\vec{v}_2$ respectively at time $t = 0$. They collide at time $t_0$. Their velocities become $\vec{v}_1'$ and $\vec{v}_2'$ at time $2t_0$ while still moving in air. The value of $|(m_1\vec{v}_1' + m_2\vec{v}_2') - (m_1\vec{v}_1 + m_2\vec{v}_2)|$ is

In a tonga,a horse pulls a wagon. Which is the correct analysis of the situation?

$A$ solid horizontal surface is covered with a thin layer of oil. $A$ rectangular block of mass $m = 0.4 \ kg$ is at rest on this surface. An impulse of $1.0 \ N \ s$ is applied to the block at time $t = 0$ so that it starts moving along the $x$-axis with a velocity $v(t) = v_0 e^{-t/\tau}$,where $v_0$ is a constant and $\tau = 4 \ s$. The displacement of the block,in metres,at $t = \tau$ is. . . . . . . Take $e^{-1} = 0.37$.

Why are porcelain objects wrapped in paper or straw before packing for transportation?

$A$ body of mass $3\,kg$ is acted on by a force which varies as shown in the graph below. The momentum acquired is given by ........... $N-s$.

Explain why a seasoned (experienced) cricketer pulls their hands backward while catching a fast-moving cricket ball,whereas a novice (inexperienced) player might hurt their hands by keeping them fixed.
