$A$ 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 $\,m$)

Morning breakfast provides $5000 \,cal$ of energy to a $60 \,kg$ person. The efficiency of the person is $30 \%$. The height up to which the person can climb using the energy obtained from the breakfast is ......... $m$.

$A$ ball of mass $m_1$ falls from height $h_1$ from rest to strike a spring of force constant $K$,which forces another ball of mass $m_2$ to jump on a horizontal floor at a height $h_2$ below it. Find the horizontal distance at which the ball of mass $m_2$ strikes the floor from the position of the start. [Assume the spring is fixed and the collision is elastic].

$A$ wooden block of mass $M$ is suspended by a cord and is at rest. $A$ bullet of mass $m$,moving with a velocity $v$,passes through the block and emerges with a velocity $v/2$ in the same direction. If the block rises to a height $H$,calculate the value of $H$.
