The mass of a pendulum bob is $50 \ gm$. The bob is released from a horizontal position $A$ as shown in the figure. If the length of the pendulum is $1.5 \ m$,what will be its kinetic energy when it reaches the lowest point $B$ of its path? (Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

  • A
    $15 \times 10^{-1} \ J$
  • B
    $7.5 \times 10^{-1} \ J$
  • C
    $5 \times 10^{-1} \ J$
  • D
    $2.5 \times 10^{-1} \ J$

What is the velocity of the bob when it reaches point $B$ in $m/s$?

$A$ body of mass $2 \, kg$ slides down a curved track which is a quadrant of a circle of radius $1 \, m$ as shown in the figure. All the surfaces are frictionless. If the body starts from rest,its speed at the bottom of the track is ............. $m/s$.

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 $g = 10 \ m/s^2$):
