$A$ body of mass $M$ is dropped from a height $h$ on a sand floor. If the body penetrates $x$ into the sand,the average resistance offered by the sand to the body is

  • A
    $Mg\left( \frac{h}{x} \right)$
  • B
    $Mg\left( 1 + \frac{h}{x} \right)$
  • C
    $Mgh + Mgx$
  • D
    $Mg\left( 1 - \frac{h}{x} \right)$

$A$ demonstration apparatus on a table in the lab is shown in the diagram. It consists of a metal track (shown as a thick solid line in the figure) along which a perfectly spherical marble can roll without slipping. In one run,the marble is released from rest at a height $h$ above the table on the left section,rolls down one side and then up the other side without slipping,briefly stopping when it has reached $h_1$. Assuming the table to be horizontal and neglecting air drag as well as any energy loss due to rolling,which of the following is true?
