A point particle of mass, moves along the uniformly rough track $PQR$ as shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction, between the particle and the rough track equals $\mu$. The particle is released, from rest, from the point $P$ and it comes to rest at a point $R$. The energies, lost by the ball, over the parts, $PQ$ and $PR$, of the track, are equal to each other, and no energy is lost when particle changes direction from $PQ$ to $QR$. The values of the coefficient of friction $\mu$ and the distance $x(=QR)$ are, respecitvely close to
$0.29 $ and $3.5 $ $m$
$0.29$ and $ 6.5 $ $m$
$0.2 $ and $6.5$ $ m$
$0.2$ and $3.5$ $m$
An adult weighting $600\,N$ raises the centre of gravity of his body by $0.25\,m$ while taking each step of $1\,m$ length in jogging. If he jogs for $6\,km$, calculate the energy utilised by him in jogging assuming that there is no energy loss due to friction of ground and air. Assuming that the body of the adult is capable of converting $10\,\%$ of energy intake in the form of food, calculate the energy equivalents of food that would be required to compensate energy utilised for jogging.
A knife of mass $m$ is at a height $x$ from a large wooden block. The knife is allowed to fall freely, strikes the block and comes to rest after penetrating distance $y$. The work done by the wooden block to stop the knife is ..............
A particle of mass $500 \,gm$ is moving in a straight line with velocity $v=b x^{5 / 2}$. The work done by the net force during its displacement from $x=0$ to $x =4 \,m$ is ...................$J$ (Take $b =0.25 \,m ^{-3 / 2} s ^{-1}$ )
Consider an elliptically shaped rail $P Q$ in the vertical plane with $O P=3 \ m$ and $OQ =4 \ m$. A block of mass $1 \ kg$ is pulled along the rail from $P$ to $Q$ with a force of $18 \ N$, Which is always parallel to line $PQ$ (see the figure given). Assuming no frictional losses, the kinetic energy of the block when it reaches $Q$ is $(n \times 10)$ joules. The value of $n$ is (take acceleration due to gravity $=10 \ ms ^{-2}$ )
Three particles $A,B$ and $C$ are thrown from the top of a tower with the same speed. $A$ is thrown up, $B$ is thrown down and $C$ is horizontally. They hit the ground with speeds $V_A, V_B$ and $V_C$ respectively, then
