$A$ bullet of mass $0.1\, kg$ is fired into a wooden block to pierce through it,but it stops after moving a distance of $50\, cm$ into it. If the velocity of the bullet before hitting the wood is $10\, m/s$ and it slows down with uniform deceleration,then the magnitude of the effective retarding force on the bullet is $'x'\, N$. The value of $'x'$ to the nearest integer is:

  • A
    $7$
  • B
    $8$
  • C
    $10$
  • D
    $12$

Two cars of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$,joined back to back by a massless compressed spring,are at rest on a horizontal rough road. When the compression of the spring is suddenly removed,the cars move away from each other and come to rest due to friction. If the frictional force is the same on both cars,what is the ratio of their stopping times?
