$A$ block moving horizontally on a smooth surface with a speed of $40\, m/s$ splits into two parts with masses in the ratio of $1:2$. If the smaller part moves at $60\, m/s$ in the same direction,then the fractional change in kinetic energy is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{8}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{4}$

$A$ block of mass $1 \ kg$ is placed at point $A$ on a rough path. It is gently pushed to the right. It slides down the slope and reaches point $B$. Find the work done by the friction force on the block during the journey from point $A$ to point $B$ in $J$. (Assume the vertical height difference between $A$ and $B$ is $0.2 \ m$ and the block starts and ends at rest).

The inclined surfaces of two movable wedges of same mass $M$ are smoothly conjugated with the horizontal plane as shown in the figure. $A$ washer of mass $m$ slides down the left wedge from a height $h$. To what maximum height will the washer rise along the right wedge? Neglect friction.

Two identical blocks $A$ and $B$, each of mass $m$, resting on a smooth floor, are connected by a light spring of natural length $L$ and spring constant $k$. The spring is at its natural length. $A$ third identical block $C$ (mass $m$) moving with a speed $v$ along the line joining $A$ and $B$ collides with $A$. The maximum compression in the spring is proportional to

Consider two carts,of masses $m$ and $2m$,at rest on an air track. If you push both the carts for $3\,s$ exerting equal force on each,the kinetic energy of the light cart is

Two bodies of masses $0.1\, kg$ and $0.4\, kg$ move towards each other with the velocities $1\, m/s$ and $0.1\, m/s$ respectively. After collision they stick together. In $10\, s$,the combined mass travels ............ $m$.
