$A$ ball loses $15.0\%$ of its kinetic energy when it bounces back from a concrete wall. With what speed must you throw it vertically down from a height of $12.4\, m$ to have it bounce back to the same height (ignore air resistance)? ............. $m / s$

$A$ rain drop of radius $2 \; mm$ falls from a height of $500 \; m$ above the ground. It falls with decreasing acceleration (due to viscous resistance of the air) until at half its original height,it attains its maximum (terminal) speed,and moves with uniform speed thereafter. What is the work done by the gravitational force on the drop in the first and second half of its journey? What is the work done by the resistive force in the entire journey if its speed on reaching the ground is $10 \; m s^{-1}$?

Two identical balls of mass $2 \ kg$ are moving towards each other with a velocity of $5 \ m/s$. They collide and come to rest after the collision. What is the work done by the internal forces in $J$?

$A$ ball of mass $1 \ kg$ moving with a velocity of $0.4 \ m/s$ collides with another ball of the same mass at rest. After the collision,the first ball moves with a velocity of $0.3 \ m/s$ in a direction perpendicular to the initial direction. Find the magnitude of the momentum $\vec{P}$ of the second ball in $kg \cdot m/s$.

$A$ body is moved from rest along a straight line by a machine delivering constant power. The ratio of displacement and velocity $(s/v)$ varies with time $t$ as :

Explain why total linear momentum is conserved in an elastic collision,and define inelastic collision and perfectly inelastic collision.
