$A$ truck of mass $M$ and a car of mass $\frac{M}{10}$ moving with the same momentum are brought to a halt by the application of the same braking force. The ratio of the distances travelled by the truck and the car before they come to a stop is

  • A
    $1: 10$
  • B
    $1: \sqrt{10}$
  • C
    $100: 1$
  • D

$A$ bullet of $10\, \text{g}$, moving with velocity $v$, collides head-on with the stationary bob of a pendulum and recoils with velocity $100\, \text{m/s}$. The length of the pendulum is $0.5\, \text{m}$ and the mass of the bob is $1\, \text{kg}$. The minimum value of $v$ in $\text{m/s}$ so that the pendulum completes a vertical circle is: (Assume the string to be inextensible and $g=10\, \text{m/s}^2$)

$A$ block of mass $m = 0.1\,kg$ is connected to a spring of unknown spring constant $k.$ It is compressed to a distance $x$ from its equilibrium position and released from rest. After approaching half the distance $(\frac{x}{2})$ from the equilibrium position,it hits another block and comes to rest momentarily,while the other block moves with a velocity $3\,m/s.$ The total initial energy of the spring is ................ $J$.

$A$ boat of mass $1000 \,kg$ goes from rest to a speed of $20.0 \,m/s$ in $5.0 \,s$. The water exerts a constant drag force and the acceleration of the boat is constant. If the average power required by the boat is $45000 \,W$, then the magnitude of the drag force is: (in $\,N$)
