$A$ light particle moving horizontally with a speed of $12\ m/s$ strikes a very heavy block moving in the same direction at $10\ m/s$. The collision is one-dimensional and elastic. After the collision,the particle will

  • A
    Move at $2\ m/s$ in its original direction
  • B
    Move at $8\ m/s$ in its original direction
  • C
    Move at $8\ m/s$ opposite to its original direction
  • D
    Move at $12\ m/s$ opposite to its original direction

The bob $A$ of a simple pendulum is released when the string makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the vertical. It hits another bob $B$ of the same material and same mass kept at rest on the table. If the collision is elastic,what happens after the collision?

$A$ $2\, kg$ block moving with $10\, m/s$ strikes a spring of constant $\pi^2\, N/m$ attached to a $2\, kg$ block at rest kept on a smooth floor. The velocity of the rear $2\, kg$ block after it separates from the spring will be ..... $m/s$.

$A$ particle of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $u$ makes an elastic one-dimensional collision with a stationary particle of mass $m$. They are in contact for a total time $T$. The contact force increases linearly from $0$ to $F_0$ in time $\frac{T}{4}$, remains constant for a further time $\frac{T}{2}$, and decreases linearly from $F_0$ to $0$ in the final time $\frac{T}{4}$, as shown in the graph. The magnitude of $F_0$ is:
