$A$ particle is released from a height $H$. At a certain height,its kinetic energy is half of its potential energy with reference to the surface of the earth. The height and speed of the particle at that instant are respectively:

  • A
    $\frac{H}{3}, \sqrt{\frac{2 g H}{3}}$
  • B
    $\frac{H}{3}, 2 \sqrt{\frac{g H}{3}}$
  • C
    $\frac{2 H}{3}, \sqrt{2 g H}$
  • D
    $\frac{2 H}{3}, \sqrt{\frac{2 g H}{3}}$

Consider an elliptically shaped rail $PQ$ in the vertical plane with $OP = 3 \ m$ and $OQ = 4 \ m$. $A$ block of mass $1 \ kg$ is pulled along the rail from $P$ to $Q$ with a force of $18 \ N$,which is always parallel to the line $PQ$ (see the figure). Assuming no frictional losses,the kinetic energy of the block when it reaches $Q$ is $(n \times 10) \ J$. The value of $n$ is (take acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \ m/s^2$):

$A$ light rod of length $L$ is pivoted at its upper end. Two masses (each of mass $m$) are attached to the rod,one at its midpoint and the other at its free end. What horizontal velocity must be imparted to the lower end so that the rod reaches the horizontal position?

$A$ uniform chain of mass $m$ and length $l$ is on a smooth horizontal table with $\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)^{\text{th}}$ part of its length hanging from one end of the table. The velocity of the chain,when it completely slips off the table is

Work equal to $25\,J$ is done on a mass of $2\,kg$ to set it in motion. If the whole of it is used to increase the kinetic energy,then the velocity acquired by the mass is ............ $m/s$.

If work is positive,then kinetic energy increases or decreases?
