Statement $-1$: Two particles moving in the same direction do not lose all their energy in a completely inelastic collision.
Statement $-2$: Principle of conservation of momentum holds true for all kinds of collisions.

Consider two blocks $A$ and $B$ of masses $m_1 = 10 \ kg$ and $m_2 = 5 \ kg$ that are placed on a frictionless table. The block $A$ moves with a constant speed $v = 3 \ m/s$ towards the block $B$ kept at rest. $A$ spring with spring constant $k = 3000 \ N/m$ is attached to the block $B$ as shown in the figure. After the collision,suppose that the blocks $A$ and $B$,along with the spring in a constant compression state,move together. Then the compression in the spring is (neglect the mass of the spring).

$A$ bead of mass $m$ slides without friction on the wall of a vertical circular hoop of radius $R$ as shown in the figure. The bead moves under the combined action of gravity and a massless spring of constant $k$ attached to the bottom of the hoop. The natural (equilibrium) length of the spring is $R$. If the bead is released from the top of the hoop with negligible initial speed,what is the velocity of the bead when the length of the spring becomes $R$? ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity)

Starting from rest on her swing at initial height $h_0$ above the ground,Saina swings forward. At the lowest point of her motion,she grabs her bag that lies on the ground. Saina continues swinging forward to reach maximum height $h_1$. She then swings backward and when reaching the lowest point of motion again,she simply lets go of the bag,which falls freely. Saina's backward swing then reaches maximum height $h_2$. Neglecting air resistance,how are the three heights related?

$A$ ball of mass $m$ falls vertically from a height $h$ and collides with a block of equal mass $m$ moving horizontally with a velocity $v$ on a surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is $0.2$,while the coefficient of restitution $e$ between the ball and the block is $0.5$. There is no friction acting between the ball and the block. The velocity of the block decreases by:
