$A$ mass $m$ is at rest on an inclined plane of mass $M$,which is further resting on a smooth horizontal plane. Now,if the mass $m$ starts moving under gravity,the position of the centre of mass of the system will

  • A
    remain unchanged
  • B
    change along the horizontal direction
  • C
    move up in the vertical direction
  • D
    move down in the vertical direction and remain unchanged along the horizontal direction

$A$ $750 \ kg$ boat is $10 \ m$ long and is floating without motion on still water. $A$ man of mass $80 \ kg$ is at one end. If he runs to the other end of the boat and stops,the displacement of the boat is:

$A$ piece of wood of mass $0.03\, kg$ is dropped from the top of a $100\, m$ height building. At the same time,a bullet of mass $0.02\, kg$ is fired vertically upward,with a velocity $100\, ms^{-1}$,from the ground. The bullet gets embedded in the wood. Then the maximum height to which the combined system reaches above the top of the building before falling below is ........ $m$. $(g = 10\, ms^{-2})$
