Starting from rest on her swing at initial height $h_0$ above the ground,Saina swings forward. At the lowest point of her motion,she grabs her bag that lies on the ground. Saina continues swinging forward to reach maximum height $h_1$. She then swings backward and when reaching the lowest point of motion again,she simply lets go of the bag,which falls freely. Saina's backward swing then reaches maximum height $h_2$. Neglecting air resistance,how are the three heights related?

  • A
    $h_0 > h_1 > h_2$
  • B
    $h_0 = h_1 = h_2$
  • C
    $h_0 > h_1 = h_2$
  • D
    $h_0 = h_2 > h_1$

$A$ ball of mass $1 \ kg$ moving with a velocity of $0.4 \ m/s$ collides with another ball of the same mass at rest. After the collision,the first ball moves with a velocity of $0.3 \ m/s$ in a direction perpendicular to the initial direction. Find the magnitude of the momentum $\vec{P}$ of the second ball in $kg \cdot m/s$.

$A$ body of mass $1\,kg$ is thrown upwards with a velocity $20\,m/s$. It momentarily comes to rest after attaining a height of $18\,m$. How much energy is lost due to air friction? (Given $g = 10\,m/s^2$)

$A$ block of weight $10 \ N$ slides down a curved track $AB$ and then onto a rough horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the rough surface is $0.20$. If the block starts sliding from a height of $1.0 \ m$ above the horizontal surface,calculate the distance $S$ it travels on the rough surface before coming to rest. [$g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$]

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. Then,the ratio between the relative velocity of approach and the relative velocity of separation in the second collision is:
