$A$ man of mass $60$ $kg$ wants to lose $5$ $kg$ of mass by climbing up and down stairs. Assume that twice the amount of fat is burned while climbing up compared to climbing down. If burning $1$ $kg$ of fat provides $7000$ $kcal$ of energy, how many times must he climb up and down the stairs to lose $5$ $kg$ of mass (in $times$)? (Assume the energy spent in climbing up is $20$ $kcal$ and climbing down is $10$ $kcal$ per trip).

  • A
    $1000$
  • B
    $1500$
  • C
    $2000$
  • D
    $2500$

$A$ spring-block system is resting on a frictionless floor as shown in the figure. The spring constant is $2.0 \,N \,m^{-1}$ and the mass of the block is $2.0 \,kg$. Ignore the mass of the spring. Initially, the spring is in an unstretched condition. Another block of mass $1.0 \,kg$ moving with a speed of $2.0 \,m \,s^{-1}$ collides elastically with the first block. The collision is such that the $2.0 \,kg$ block does not hit the wall. The distance, in metres, between the two blocks when the spring returns to its unstretched position for the first time after the collision is. . . .

By how much should the spring be compressed by the block so that the centripetal force at point $P$ is $mg$?
