Two identical particles are moving with same velocity $v$ as shown in the figure. If the collision is completely inelastic,then:

  • A
    The velocity of separation is zero.
  • B
    The velocity of approach is $2v \sin(\theta/2)$.
  • C
    The common velocity after collision is $v \cos(\theta/2)$.
  • D
    All of the above.

$A$ ball is held in the position shown with a string of length $L = 1 \, m$ just taut and then projected horizontally with a velocity of $u = 3 \, m/s$. If the string becomes taut again when it is vertical,the angle $\theta$ is given by ........ $^o$.

$A$ shell is fired from a cannon with velocity $v \text{ m/s}$ at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal direction. At the highest point in its path,it explodes into two pieces of equal mass. One of the pieces retraces its path to the cannon. The speed in $\text{m/s}$ of the other piece immediately after the explosion 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 $M/m$?

Equal force $F (> mg)$ is applied to the string in all the $3$ cases. Starting from rest,the point of application of force moves a distance of $2 \ m$ down in all cases. In which case does the block have maximum kinetic energy?

$A$ body of mass $4 \ kg$ is moving with a momentum of $8 \ kg \ m/s$. $A$ force of $0.2 \ N$ acts on it in the direction of motion for $10 \ s$. The increase in kinetic energy in joules is:
