An open carriage in a goods train is moving with a uniform velocity of $10 \,m/s$. If the rain adds water with zero velocity at the rate of $5 \,kg/s$,then the additional force required by the engine to maintain the same velocity of the train is ....... $N$.

$A$ flexible chain of length $L = 2 \ m$ and mass $M = 1 \ kg$ is initially held in a vertical position such that its lower end just touches a horizontal surface. It is released from rest at time $t = 0$. Assuming that any part of the chain that strikes the plane immediately comes to rest and that the portion of the chain lying on the horizontal surface does not form any heap,find the height of its centre of mass above the surface at the instant $t = 1/\sqrt{5} \ s$ (before it completely comes to rest).
