$A$ ball of mass $1 \ kg$ moves in a straight line with velocity $v = c x^\alpha$,where $c = 1$ ($SI$ unit) and $\alpha$ is a constant. If the work done by the net force during its displacement from $x = 0$ to $x = 4 \ m$ is $128 \ J$,then the value of $\alpha$ is

$A$ train engine of mass $m$ starts moving such that its velocity varies as $v = k\sqrt{s}$,where $k$ is a constant and $s$ is the distance covered. What is the total work done by all the forces acting on the engine in the first $t$ seconds?

The velocity at which the $6 \text{ kg}$ mass (shown in the figure) strikes the ground when it is released from a height of $6 \text{ m}$ above the ground is . . . . . . $\text{m/s}$. Assume the pulley is massless and the string is light and inextensible. (Take $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$)

From a height of $h$ above the ground, a ball is projected up at an angle $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. If the ball strikes the ground with a speed of $1.25$ times its initial speed of $40 \,ms^{-1}$, the value of $h$ is (acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,m$)

State the principle of conservation of mechanical energy for a conservative force.

$A$ bullet of mass $20\,g$ has an initial speed of $1\,ms^{-1}$ just before it starts penetrating a mud wall of thickness $20\,cm.$ If the wall offers a mean resistance of $2.5 \times 10^{-2}\,N,$ the speed of the bullet after emerging from the other side of the wall is close to .............. $ms^{-1}$
