An object of mass $m$ is sliding down a hill of arbitrary shape and after traveling a certain horizontal path stops because of friction. The friction coefficient is different for different segments of the entire path but it is independent of the velocity and direction of motion. The work done that a force must perform to return the object to its initial position along the same path would be:

$A$ particle of mass $m$ is initially at rest at the origin. It is subjected to a force and starts moving along the $x$-axis. Its kinetic energy $K$ changes with time as $dK/dt = \gamma t$,where $\gamma$ is a positive constant of appropriate dimensions. Which of the following statements is (are) true?
$(A)$ The force applied on the particle is constant
$(B)$ The speed of the particle is proportional to time
$(C)$ The distance of the particle from the origin increases linearly with time
$(D)$ The force is conservative

$A$ small bucket of mass $M \, kg$ is attached to a non-extensible string of length $L \, m$. The bucket is released from rest when the string is in a horizontal position. At its lowest point,the bucket scoops up $m \, kg$ of water and rises to a height $h$. The height $h$ (in meters) is:

$A$ free body of mass $8 \, kg$ is travelling at $2 \, m/s$ in a straight line. At a certain instant,the body splits into two equal parts due to an internal explosion which releases $16 \, J$ of energy. Neither part leaves the original line of motion. Finally:

In a collinear collision,a particle with an initial speed $v_0$ strikes a stationary particle of the same mass. If the final total kinetic energy is $50\%$ greater than the original kinetic energy,the magnitude of the relative velocity between the two particles,after collision,is:
