$A$ light inextensible string that goes over a smooth fixed pulley as shown in the figure connects two blocks of masses $m_1 = 0.36 \text{ kg}$ and $m_2 = 0.72 \text{ kg}$. Taking $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$,find the work done (in joules) by the string on the block of mass $0.36 \text{ kg}$ during the first second after the system is released from rest.

  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $6$
  • C
    $8$

$A$ block of mass $5 \ kg$ is suspended by a light thread from an elevator. The elevator is accelerating upward with uniform acceleration $2 \ m/s^2$. The work done by tension on the block during the first $3 \ s$ is $(u = 0)$. (in $J$)

$A$ small block of mass $200 \ g$ is placed on a horizontal slab at a height of $2 \ m$ above the floor. The block is pressed against a horizontal spring fixed at one end to compress the spring by $10.0 \ cm$. Upon releasing,the block moves horizontally until it leaves the spring. Calculate the horizontal distance covered by the block after leaving the slab and just before hitting the ground. The spring constant is $50 \ N \ m^{-1}$. (Assume $g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $m$)

Two identical balls of mass $2 \ kg$ are moving towards each other with a velocity of $5 \ m/s$. They collide and come to rest after the collision. What is the work done by the internal forces in $J$?

Match the items in Column-$I$ with Column-$II$.
Column-$I$ Column-$II$
$(1)$ Work done is zero $(a)$ By gravitational force (when body moves down)
$(2)$ Work done is positive $(b)$ Against gravitational force (when body moves up)
$(3)$ Work done is negative $(c)$ By centripetal force

$A$ wooden block of mass $M$ is suspended by a cord and is at rest. $A$ bullet of mass $m$,moving with a velocity $v$,passes through the block and emerges with a velocity $v/2$ in the same direction. If the block rises to a height $h$,calculate the value of $h$.
