$A$ block $C$ of mass $m$ is moving with velocity $v_0$ and collides elastically with block $A$ of mass $m$ which is connected to another block $B$ of mass $2m$ through a spring of spring constant $k$. What is $k$ if $x_0$ is the compression of the spring when the velocity of $A$ and $B$ is the same?

The displacement $x$ of a particle moving in one dimension under the action of a constant force is related to the time $t$ by the equation $t = \sqrt{x} + 3$,where $x$ is in meters and $t$ is in seconds. The work done by the force in the first $6$ seconds is.....$J$

$A$ block of mass $m$ starts from rest and slides down a frictionless semi-circular track from a height $h$ as shown. When it reaches the lowest point of the track,it collides with a stationary piece of putty also having mass $m$. If the block and the putty stick together and continue to slide,the maximum height that the block-putty system could reach is:

$A$ block of mass $m = 5 \text{ kg}$ is released from the top of an inclined plane as shown in the figure. The inclined plane has a length of $10 \text{ m}$ and an angle of $30^{\circ}$. The horizontal surface has a coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu = 0.5$ and a length of $2 \text{ m}$ before the spring of spring constant $k = 100 \text{ N/m}$. Calculate the maximum compression $x$ in the spring.

Three objects $A, B$ and $C$ are kept in a straight line on a frictionless horizontal surface. The masses of $A, B$ and $C$ are $m, 2m$ and $2m$ respectively. $A$ 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 along the same straight line. The final speed of $C$ is $.... \ m/s$.
