$A$ large block of wood of mass $M = 5.99 \, kg$ is hanging from two long massless cords. $A$ bullet of mass $m = 10 \, g$ is fired into the block and gets embedded in it. The (block $+$ bullet) then swing upwards,their centre of mass rising a vertical distance $h = 9.8 \, cm$ before the (block $+$ bullet) pendulum comes momentarily to rest at the end of its arc. The speed of the bullet just before collision is: (Take $g = 9.8 \, ms^{-2}$) (in $m/s$)

$A$ particle of mass $m$ is at rest in a train moving with constant velocity with respect to the ground. Now,the particle is accelerated by a constant force $F_0$ acting along the direction of motion of the train for time $t_0$. $A$ girl in the train and a boy on the ground measure the work done by this force. Which of the following are $INCORRECT$?
