$A$ bullet loses $\left( \frac{1}{n} \right)^{th}$ of its velocity while passing through one plank. The number of such planks required to stop the bullet is:

$A$ sphere of mass $m$ moving with a constant velocity $u$ hits another stationary sphere of the same mass. If $e$ is the coefficient of restitution,then the ratio of the velocity of the two spheres after the collision will be

The sign of work done by a force on a body is important to understand. State carefully if the following quantities are positive or negative:
$(a)$ Work done by a man in lifting a bucket out of a well by means of a rope tied to the bucket.
$(b)$ Work done by gravitational force in the above case.
$(c)$ Work done by friction on a body sliding down an inclined plane.
$(d)$ Work done by an applied force on a body moving on a rough horizontal plane with uniform velocity.
$(e)$ Work done by the resistive force of air on a vibrating pendulum in bringing it to rest.

Write the similarity between various forms of energy.

$A$ body of mass $2 \, \text{kg}$ moving with a speed of $4 \, \text{m/s}$ makes an elastic collision with another body at rest and continues to move in the original direction but with one-fourth of its initial speed. The speed of the two-body centre of mass is $\frac{x}{10} \, \text{m/s}$. Then the value of $x$ is ..... .

Two rectangular blocks $A$ and $B$ of masses $2 \,kg$ and $3 \,kg$ respectively are connected by a spring of spring constant $10.8 \,Nm^{-1}$ and are placed on a frictionless horizontal surface. The block $A$ is given an initial velocity of $0.15 \,ms^{-1}$ in the direction shown in the figure. The maximum compression of the spring during the motion is (in $\,m$)
