In two separate collisions,the coefficients of restitution $e_1$ and $e_2$ are in the ratio $3:1$. In the first collision,the relative velocity of approach is twice the relative velocity of separation. Find the ratio between the relative velocity of approach and the relative velocity of separation in the second collision.

The figure below shows a small mass connected to a string,which is attached to a vertical post. If the ball is released when the string is horizontal as shown below,the magnitude of the total acceleration (including radial and tangential) of the mass as a function of the angle $\theta$ is

Three blocks $A, B$ and $C$ are lying on a smooth horizontal surface,as shown in the figure. $A$ and $B$ have equal masses $m$,while $C$ has mass $M$. Block $A$ is given an initial speed $v$ towards $B$,due to which it collides with $B$ perfectly inelastically. The combined mass then collides with $C$,also perfectly inelastically. If $5/6^{th}$ of the initial kinetic energy is lost in the whole process,what is the value of $M/m$?

$A$ constant power of $7 \,W$ is supplied to a toy car of mass $15 \,kg$. The distance travelled by the car when its velocity increases from $3 \,ms^{-1}$ to $5 \,ms^{-1}$ is: (in $\,m$)

$A$ ball of mass $0.2 \ kg$ is at rest at a height of $5 \ m$. $A$ bullet of mass $0.01 \ kg$ moving horizontally with a velocity $V \ m/s$ strikes the center of the ball. After the collision,the ball and the bullet move independently. The ball hits the ground at a distance of $20 \ m$ and the bullet hits the ground at a distance of $100 \ m$ from the base of the pillar. What is the initial velocity $V$ of the bullet in $m/s$?

$A$ block of mass $1.9\, kg$ is at rest at the edge of a table of height $1\, m$. $A$ bullet of mass $0.1\, kg$ collides with the block and sticks to it. If the velocity of the bullet is $20\, m/s$ in the horizontal direction just before the collision,then the kinetic energy just before the combined system strikes the floor is $....J$. (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$. Assume there is no rotational motion and loss of energy after the collision is negligible.)
