$A$ metal block of mass $4 \ kg$ is at rest on a frictionless surface. It is struck by a jet of water releasing $2 \ kg \ s^{-1}$ at a speed of $10 \ m \ s^{-1}$. The acceleration of the block is (in $m \ s^{-2}$)

Sand is being dropped from a stationary dropper at a rate of $0.5 \, kg s^{-1}$ on a conveyor belt moving with a velocity of $5 \, m s^{-1}$. The power needed to keep the belt moving with the same velocity will be: (in $, W$)

The motion of a rocket in an upward direction with high speed is based on the principle of conservation of:

$A$ rocket has a mass of $100 \, kg$. $90\%$ of this is fuel. It ejects fuel vapours at the rate of $1 \, kg/s$ with a velocity of $500 \, m/s$ relative to the rocket. It is assumed that the rocket is outside the gravitational field. The initial upthrust on the rocket when it just starts moving upwards is ......... $N$.

$A$ rifle of $20 \,kg$ mass can fire $4$ bullets per second. The mass of each bullet is $35 \times 10^{-3} \,kg$ and its final velocity is $400 \,ms^{-1}$. What force must be applied on the rifle so that it does not move backwards while firing the bullets (in $\,N$)?

$A$ rocket with an initial mass $m_0$ is going up with a constant acceleration $a$ by exhausting gases with a velocity $v$ relative to the rocket motion. The mass of the rocket at any instant of time $t$ is (assume that no other forces act on it).
