$A$ body of mass $0.5 \ kg$ is supplied with a power $P$ (in watt) which varies with time $t$ (in second) as $P = 3t^2 + 3$. If the velocity of the body at time $t = 0$ is zero, then the velocity of the body at time $t = 3 \ s$ is (in $ms^{-1}$)

Statement $-1$: Two particles moving in the same direction do not lose all their energy in a completely inelastic collision.
Statement $-2$: Principle of conservation of momentum holds true for all kinds of collisions.

Explain with illustrations the meaning of work,energy,and power in everyday life and state that this meaning has no relation with the meaning in physics.

In the figure shown,two identical balls of mass $M$ and radius $R$ each are placed in contact with each other on a frictionless horizontal surface. $A$ third ball of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is coming down vertically with a velocity $v_0$. It simultaneously hits the two balls. The smaller ball (top ball) does not stop after the collision but continues to move downwards with a speed $v_0/2$. Find the speed of each bigger ball after the collision.

$A$ ball is thrown vertically downwards from a height of $20 \, m$ with an initial velocity $v_0$. It collides with the ground,loses $50\%$ of its energy in the collision,and rebounds to the same height. The initial velocity $v_0$ is .................... $m/s$ (Take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$)
