If a rubber ball falls from a height $h$ and rebounds up to a height of $h/2$,the percentage loss of total energy of the initial system and the velocity of the ball just before it strikes the ground,respectively,are:

Fill in the blanks:
$(a)$ When an object is lifted from the ground to a certain height,the work done against the gravitational force is ......
$(b)$ When the work done is zero,the speed of the object remains ..........
$(c)$ For a .......... collision,the coefficient of restitution is $1$.

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

$A$ mass of $2.9 \ kg$ is suspended from a string of length $50 \ cm$ and is at rest. Another body of mass $100 \ g$,which is moving horizontally with a velocity of $150 \ m/s$,strikes and sticks to it. Subsequently,when the string makes an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the vertical,the tension in the string is $(g = 10 \ m/s^2)$. (in $N$)

Identify the correct statements from the following:
$(A)$ Work done by a man in lifting a bucket out of a well by means of a rope tied to the bucket is negative.
$(B)$ Work done by gravitational force in lifting a bucket out of a well by a rope tied to the bucket is negative.
$(C)$ Work done by friction on a body sliding down an inclined plane is positive.
$(D)$ Work done by an applied force on a body moving on a rough horizontal plane with uniform velocity is zero.
$(E)$ Work done by the air resistance on an oscillating pendulum is negative.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

$A$ rubber ball is dropped from a height of $5 \ m$ on a planet,where the acceleration due to gravity is not known. On bouncing,it rises to $1.8 \ m$. The ball loses its velocity on bouncing by a factor of
