$A$ particle slides from the top of a smooth hemispherical surface of radius $R$ which is fixed on a horizontal surface. If it separates from the hemisphere at a height $h$ from the horizontal surface,then the speed of the particle is

  • A
    $\sqrt{2g(R-h)}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2g(R+h)}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{2gR}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{2gh}$

Two monkeys with the same mass stand on a branch at height $h$ above the horizontal jungle floor. Monkey $A$ steps off the branch holding the end of an inextensible rope of length $L$ whose other end is tied to another branch at height $H$,lets go at the bottom of the swing,and falls freely to the floor,as shown below. Monkey $B$ steps off and falls straight downward. Then,neglecting air resistance but not the tension in the rope,the total work $W$ done on each monkey and the speed $v$ with which each hits the floor are as follows:

State and establish the principle of conservation of mechanical energy.

Three particles $A, B$, and $C$ are thrown from the top of a tower with the same speed $u$. Particle $A$ is thrown upwards, $B$ is thrown downwards, and $C$ is thrown horizontally. If they hit the ground with speeds $V_A, V_B$, and $V_C$ respectively, then:

$A$ particle,initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface,is acted upon by a horizontal force which is constant in size and direction. $A$ graph is plotted between the work done $(W)$ on the particle and the speed of the particle $(v)$. If there are no other horizontal forces acting on the particle,the graph would look like:
