$A$ $1000\, kg$ elevator rises from rest in the basement to the fourth floor,a distance of $20\, m$. As it passes the fourth floor,its speed is $4\, m/s$. There is a constant frictional force of $500\, N$. The work done by the lifting mechanism is

If a lighter body (mass $M_1$ and velocity $V_1$) and a heavier body (mass $M_2$ and velocity $V_2$) have the same kinetic energy,then

Define elastic collision and inelastic collision.

The position $x$ of a particle moving along the $x$-axis at time $t$ is given by the equation $t = \sqrt{x} + 2$,where $x$ is in metres and $t$ is in seconds. The work done by the force in the first $4 \ s$ is .............. $J$.

$A$ light inextensible string that goes over a smooth fixed pulley as shown in the figure connects two blocks of masses $m_1 = 0.36 \text{ kg}$ and $m_2 = 0.72 \text{ kg}$. Taking $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$,find the work done (in joules) by the string on the block of mass $0.36 \text{ kg}$ during the first second after the system is released from rest.

$A$ bullet loses $\left( \frac{1}{n} \right)^{th}$ of its velocity while passing through one plank. The number of such planks required to stop the bullet is:
