$A$ bullet of mass $m$ moving with velocity $v$ is fired into a wooden block of mass $M$. If the bullet remains embedded in the block,the final velocity of the system is:

  • A
    $\frac{v}{m(M+m)}$
  • B
    $\frac{m+M}{m}$
  • C
    $\frac{M+m}{mv}$
  • D
    $\frac{mv}{m+M}$

$A$ cat with mass $m_c$ is sitting at rest on the left plank of a pair of identical planks. Each plank has mass $m_s$ and they rest on frictionless ice. Suddenly,the cat leaps to the right plank,traveling with a horizontal speed $v_{cg}$ measured with respect to the ground. The instant the cat reaches the right plank,it turns around and leaps back to the left plank. The horizontal component of the cat's speed is again $v_{cg}$ measured with respect to the ground. The final speed of the right plank in terms of the masses of the cat and planks and the cat's leaping speed is (The cat remains on the left plank after its return).

At a certain height,a body at rest explodes into two equal fragments with one fragment receiving a horizontal velocity of $10\sqrt{3} \text{ m/s}$. The horizontal distance between the two fragments,when their displacement vectors are inclined at $60^{\circ}$ relative to each other,is (take $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$):

$A$ stationary body explodes into two parts of masses $M_1$ and $M_2$. They move in opposite directions with velocities $V_1$ and $V_2$. The ratio of their kinetic energies is

$A$ $300 \ kg$ trolley carrying a $25 \ kg$ sandbag is moving on a frictionless track with a uniform speed of $27 \ km/hr$. After some time,sand starts leaking out of the bag at a rate of $0.05 \ kg/s$ and falls onto the floor of the trolley. Find the speed of the trolley in $km/hr$ when the sandbag is completely empty.

$A$ body moving with speed $v$ in space explodes into two pieces of masses in the ratio $1 : 3$. If the smaller piece comes to rest,the speed of the other piece is
