$A$ bullet of mass $m$ moving with velocity $v_1$ strikes a wooden block of mass $M$ suspended as shown in the figure and gets embedded in it. If the block rises to a height $h$,what is the initial velocity of the bullet?

  • A
    $\frac{m + M}{m} \sqrt{2gh}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2gh}$
  • C
    $\frac{M + m}{M} \sqrt{2gh}$
  • D
    $\frac{m}{M + m} \sqrt{2gh}$

$A$ student skates up a ramp that makes an angle $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. He/she starts (as shown in the figure) at the bottom of the ramp with speed $v_0$ and wants to turn around over a semicircular path $xyz$ of radius $R$ during which he/she reaches a maximum height $h$ (at point $y$) from the ground as shown in the figure. Assume that the energy loss is negligible and the force required for this turn at the highest point is provided by his/her weight only. Then ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity):
$(A)$ $v_0^2 - 2gh = \frac{1}{2} gR$
$(B)$ $v_0^2 - 2gh = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} gR$
$(C)$ The centripetal force required at points $x$ and $z$ is zero.
$(D)$ The centripetal force required is maximum at points $x$ and $z$.

$A$ ball of mass $m$ moves with speed $v$ and strikes a wall having infinite mass and it returns with the same speed. Then the work done by the ball on the wall is:

$A$ particle is moving in a circular path of radius $a$ under the action of an attractive potential $U = - \frac{k}{2r^2}$. Its total energy is

$A$ block of mass $m(=0.1 \ kg)$ is hanging over a frictionless light fixed pulley by an inextensible string of negligible mass. The other end of the string is pulled by a constant force $F$ in the vertically downward direction. The linear momentum of the block increases by $2 \ kg \ m/s$ in $1 \ s$ after the block starts from rest. Then,(given $g=10 \ m/s^2$):

$A$ small bob $A$ of mass $m$ is attached to a massless rigid rod of length $1 \ m$ pivoted at point $P$ and kept at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the vertical as shown in the figure. At a distance of $1 \ m$ below point $P$,an identical bob $B$ is kept at rest on a smooth horizontal surface that extends to a circular track of radius $R$ as shown in the figure. If bob $B$ just manages to complete the circular path of radius $R$ up to a point $Q$ after being hit elastically by bob $A$,then the radius $R$ is . . . . . . $m$.
