$A$ wooden block of mass $M$ is suspended by a cord and is at rest. $A$ bullet of mass $m$,moving with a velocity $v$,passes through the block and emerges with a velocity $v/2$ in the same direction. If the block rises to a height $h$,calculate the value of $h$.

$A$ sphere of mass $m$ slides down a smooth inclined plane from a point $B$ at a height of $h$ starting from rest. The magnitude of the change in momentum of the particle between position $A$ (at the bottom of the incline) and $C$ (on the horizontal surface) is (assuming the angle of inclination of the plane is $\theta$ with respect to the horizontal):

$A$ block of mass $1 \ kg$ is placed at point $A$ on a rough path. It is gently pushed to the right. It slides down the slope and reaches point $B$. Find the work done by the friction force on the block during the journey from point $A$ to point $B$ in $J$. (Assume the vertical height difference between $A$ and $B$ is $0.2 \ m$ and the block starts and ends at rest).

$A$ block moving horizontally on a smooth surface with a speed of $40 \, m/s$ splits into two equal parts. If one of the parts moves at $60 \, m/s$ in the same direction,then the fractional change in the kinetic energy will be $x: 4$ where $x = ..... .$

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
