$A$ person with a machine gun can fire $50 \ g$ bullets with a velocity of $240 \ m/s$. $A$ $60 \ kg$ tiger moves towards him with a velocity of $12 \ m/s$. In order to stop the tiger in its track,the number of bullets the person must fire towards the tiger is:

$A$ projectile is thrown from a point $O$ on the ground at an angle $45^{\circ}$ from the vertical and with a speed $5 \sqrt{2} \text{ m/s}$. The projectile at the highest point of its trajectory splits into two equal parts. One part falls vertically down to the ground,$0.5 \text{ s}$ after the splitting. The other part,$t$ seconds after the splitting,falls to the ground at a distance $x$ meters from the point $O$. The acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$.

$A$ bullet of mass $0.1\, kg$ is fired into a wooden block to pierce through it,but it stops after moving a distance of $50\, cm$ into it. If the velocity of the bullet before hitting the wood is $10\, m/s$ and it slows down with uniform deceleration,then the magnitude of the effective retarding force on the bullet is $'x'\, N$. The value of $'x'$ to the nearest integer is:
