$A$ uniform chain of length $3\, m$ and mass $3\, kg$ overhangs a smooth table with $2\, m$ laying on the table. If $k$ is the kinetic energy of the chain in joules as it completely slips off the table,then the value of $k$ is (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$).

$A$ body of mass $2 \, kg$ is projected vertically upwards with a velocity of $2 \, m/s$. The kinetic energy $(K.E.)$ of the body just before striking the ground is ............. $J$.

$A$ particle of mass $m$ slides down along a frictionless inclined plane $AC$ as shown in the figure. The kinetic energy of the particle at point $C$ is:

Work equal to $25\,J$ is done on a mass of $2\,kg$ to set it in motion. If the whole of it is used to increase the kinetic energy,then the velocity acquired by the mass is ............ $m/s$.

From a height of $h$ above the ground, a ball is projected up at an angle $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. If the ball strikes the ground with a speed of $1.25$ times its initial speed of $40 \,ms^{-1}$, the value of $h$ is (acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,m$)
