It is well known that a raindrop falls under the influence of the downward gravitational force and the opposing resistive force. The latter is known to be proportional to the speed of the drop but is otherwise undetermined. Consider a drop of mass $1.00 \; g$ falling from a height $1.00 \; km$. It hits the ground with a speed of $50.0 \; m s^{-1}$. $(a)$ What is the work done by the gravitational force? $(b)$ What is the work done by the unknown resistive force?

An athlete throws a shotput of mass $25 \,kg$ with an initial speed of $4 \,ms^{-1}$ at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal from a height of $2 \,m$ above the ground. Assuming air resistance to be negligible,the kinetic energy of the shotput when it just touches the ground is . . . . . . $\left(g=10 \,ms^{-2}\right)$ (in $\,J$)

$A$ ball is dropped vertically downwards from a height $h$ above the ground. It hits the ground inelastically and bounces up vertically. Neglecting subsequent motion and air resistance,which of the following graphs represents the variation between speed $(v)$ and height $(h)$ correctly?
