$A$ section of a fixed smooth circular track of radius $R$ in a vertical plane is shown in the figure. $A$ block is released from position $A$ and leaves the track at $B$. The radius of curvature of its trajectory when it just leaves the track at $B$ is:

  • A
    $R$
  • B
    $R / 4$
  • C
    $R / 2$
  • D

$A$ block of mass $m = 0.1\,kg$ is connected to a spring of unknown spring constant $k.$ It is compressed to a distance $x$ from its equilibrium position and released from rest. After approaching half the distance $(\frac{x}{2})$ from the equilibrium position,it hits another block and comes to rest momentarily,while the other block moves with a velocity $3\,m/s.$ The total initial energy of the spring is ................ $J$.

Two balls $A$ and $B$ having masses $1\, kg$ and $2\, kg$,moving with speeds $21\, m/s$ and $4\, m/s$ respectively in opposite directions,collide head-on. After the collision,$A$ moves with a speed of $1\, m/s$ in the same direction. Which of the following statements is correct?

$A$ bullet of mass $0.02 \ kg$ travelling horizontally with velocity $250 \ ms^{-1}$ strikes a block of wood of mass $0.23 \ kg$ which rests on a rough horizontal surface. After the impact,the block and bullet move together and come to rest after travelling a distance of $40 \ m$. The coefficient of sliding friction of the rough surface is $\left(g=9.8 \ ms^{-2}\right)$
