    $\frac{16}{25}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{5}$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{5}$

$A$ ball of mass $m$ falls vertically from a height $h$ and collides with a block of equal mass $m$ moving horizontally with a velocity $v$ on a surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is $0.2$,while the coefficient of restitution $e$ between the ball and the block is $0.5$. There is no friction acting between the ball and the block. The velocity of the block decreases by:

$A$ box of mass $1 \ kg$ is placed on a horizontal surface of length $1 \ m$. $A$ force of $8 \ N$ is applied to move it horizontally by $1 \ m$,while simultaneously,its vertical height is increased by $2 \ m$. What is the total work done in Joules? (Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

$A$ and $B$ are blocks of same mass $m$ exactly equivalent to each other. Both are placed on a frictionless surface connected by a spring. The natural length of the spring is $L$ and the force constant is $K$. Initially,the spring is at its natural length. Another equivalent block $C$ of mass $m$ travelling at speed $v$ along the line joining $A$ and $B$ collides with $A$. In an ideal condition,the maximum compression of the spring is:
