(N/A) Positive. When an object is lifted against gravity,the force applied and the displacement are in the same direction,resulting in positive work done by the external force.
$(b)$ Constant. According to the Work-Energy Theorem,if the net work done on an object is zero,its kinetic energy remains constant,implying the speed remains constant.
$(c)$ Perfectly elastic. By definition,the coefficient of restitution $(e)$ is $1$ for a perfectly elastic collision.

$A$ sphere of mass $m$,moving with velocity $V$,enters a hanging bag of sand and stops. If the mass of the bag is $M$ and it is raised by height $h$,then the velocity of the sphere was

$A$ small block of mass $200 \ g$ is placed on a horizontal slab at a height of $2 \ m$ above the floor. The block is pressed against a horizontal spring fixed at one end to compress the spring by $10.0 \ cm$. Upon releasing, the block moves horizontally until it leaves the spring. Calculate the horizontal distance covered by the block after leaving the slab and just before hitting the ground. The spring constant is $50 \ N \ m^{-1}$. (Assume $g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $m$)
