$A$ $2 \ kg$ block slides on a horizontal surface at a speed of $4 \ m/s$ and strikes an uncompressed spring. The kinetic friction force is $15 \ N$ and the spring constant is $10,000 \ N/m$. By how many $cm$ will the spring be compressed?

$A$ simple pendulum of length $1 \,m$ has a wooden bob of mass $M = 1 \,kg$. It is struck by a bullet of mass $m = 10^{-2} \,kg$ moving with a speed of $u = 2 \times 10^2 \,m/s$. The bullet gets embedded into the bob. The height to which the bob rises before swinging back is (use $g = 10 \,m/s^2$): (in $\,m$)

Answer carefully,with reasons:
$(a)$ In an elastic collision of two billiard balls,is the total kinetic energy conserved during the short time of collision of the balls (i.e.,when they are in contact)?
$(b)$ Is the total linear momentum conserved during the short time of an elastic collision of two balls?
$(c)$ What are the answers to $(a)$ and $(b)$ for an inelastic collision?
$(d)$ If the potential energy of two billiard balls depends only on the separation distance between their centres,is the collision elastic or inelastic?
(Note: We are talking here of potential energy corresponding to the force during collision,not gravitational potential energy.)

$A$ body of mass $5\,kg$ is moving with a momentum of $10\,kg\,m/s$. Now a force of $2\,N$ acts on the body in the direction of its motion for $5\,s$. The increase in the kinetic energy of the body is $...........J$.

The potential energy in joules of a particle of mass $1\, kg$ moving in a plane is given by $U = 3x + 4y$,where the position coordinates $x$ and $y$ are measured in metres. If the particle is initially at rest at $(6, 4)$,then:

$A$ stationary object of mass $10 \ kg$ is subjected to two mutually perpendicular forces of $4 \ N$ and $3 \ N$. What will be its kinetic energy after $10 \ s$?
