$A$ sphere of mass $m$ slides down a smooth inclined plane from a point $B$ at a height of $h$ starting from rest. The magnitude of the change in momentum of the particle between position $A$ (at the bottom of the incline) and $C$ (on the horizontal surface) is (assuming the angle of inclination of the plane is $\theta$ with respect to the horizontal):

An open knife edge of mass $m$ is dropped from a height $h$ on a wooden floor. If the blade penetrates up to the depth $d$ into the wood,the average resistance offered by the wood to the knife edge is

$A$ body of mass $m_1$ moving with an unknown velocity $v_1 \hat{i}$ undergoes a one-dimensional collision with a body of mass $m_2$ moving with velocity $v_2 \hat{i}$. After the collision,the bodies $m_1$ and $m_2$ move with velocities $v_3 \hat{i}$ and $v_4 \hat{i}$ respectively. If $m_2 = 0.5\, m_1$ and $v_3 = 0.5\, v_1$,find $v_1$.

$A$ body $A$ moving with momentum $P$ collides one-dimensionally with another stationary body $B$ of same mass. During impact,$A$ gives impulse $J$ to $B$. Then which of the following is/are correct?
$(a)$ The total momentum of $A$ and $B$ is $P$ before and after impact and $(P-J)$ during the impact.
$(b)$ During the impact,$B$ gives impulse of magnitude $J$ to $A$.
$(c)$ The coefficient of restitution is $\left[\frac{2 J}{P}-1\right]$.
$(d)$ The coefficient of restitution is $\left[\frac{2 J}{P}+1\right]$.

$A$ ball moving with speed $v$ hits another identical ball at rest. The two balls stick together after the collision. If the specific heat of the material of the balls is $S$,the temperature rise resulting from the collision is

$A$ ball is released from a certain height. It loses $50\%$ of its kinetic energy on striking the ground. It will attain a height again equal to
