Three objects $A$,$B$,and $C$ are kept in a straight line on a frictionless horizontal surface. These have masses $m$,$2m$,and $m$,respectively. The object $A$ moves towards $B$ with a speed of $9 \ m/s$ and makes an elastic collision with it. Thereafter,$B$ makes a completely inelastic collision with $C$. All motions occur on the same straight line. Find the final speed (in $m/s$) of the object $C$.

  • A
    $9$
  • B
    $5$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $6$

$A$ man of mass $60$ $kg$ wants to lose $5$ $kg$ of mass by climbing up and down stairs. Assume that twice the amount of fat is burned while climbing up compared to climbing down. If burning $1$ $kg$ of fat provides $7000$ $kcal$ of energy, how many times must he climb up and down the stairs to lose $5$ $kg$ of mass (in $\times$)? (Assume the energy spent in climbing up is $20$ $kcal$ and climbing down is $10$ $kcal$ per trip).

$A$ target is made of two plates,one of wood and the other of iron. The thickness of the wooden plate is $4\,cm$ and that of the iron plate is $2\,cm$. $A$ bullet fired goes through the wood first and then penetrates $1\,cm$ into the iron. $A$ similar bullet fired with the same velocity from the opposite direction goes through the iron first and then penetrates $2\,cm$ into the wood. If $a_1$ and $a_2$ are the retardations offered to the bullet by the wood and iron plates respectively,then:

$A$ ball is dropped from a height of $5\,m$ onto a sandy floor and penetrates the sand up to $1\,m$ before coming to rest. The retardation of the ball in sand (assuming it to be uniform) will be ................ $m/s^2$.

$A$ stationary object of mass $10 \ kg$ is subjected to two mutually perpendicular forces of $4 \ N$ and $3 \ N$. What will be its kinetic energy after $10 \ s$?

$A$ ball is falling freely from a height. When it reaches $10 ~m$ height from the ground, its velocity is $v_0$. It collides with the ground, loses $50 \%$ of its energy, and rises back to a height of $10 ~m$. Then the velocity $v_0$ is (in $~m / s$)
