$A$ block of mass $0.18 \ kg$ is attached to a spring of force-constant $2 \ N/m$. The coefficient of friction between the block and the floor is $0.1$. Initially,the block is at rest and the spring is un-stretched. An impulse is given to the block as shown in the figure. The block slides a distance of $0.06 \ m$ and comes to rest for the first time. The initial velocity of the block in $m/s$ is $v = N/10$. Then $N$ is:

$A$ metal block is resting on a rough wooden surface. $A$ horizontal force applied to the block is increased uniformly with time,i.e.,$F = kt$. Which of the following curves correctly represents the velocity $v$ of the block as a function of time $t$?

$A$ small block of mass $0.1 \ kg$ lies on a fixed inclined plane $PQ$ which makes an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. $A$ horizontal force of $1 \ N$ acts on the block through its center of mass as shown in the figure. The block remains stationary if (take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$):

Two balls of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are separated from each other by a powder charge placed between them. The whole system is at rest on the ground. Suddenly,the powder charge explodes and the masses are pushed apart. The mass $m_1$ travels a distance $s_1$ and stops. If the coefficients of friction between the balls and the ground are the same,the mass $m_2$ stops after travelling the distance:
