$A$ $0.5 \, kg$ block moving at a speed of $12 \, ms^{-1}$ compresses a spring through a distance of $30 \, cm$ when its speed is halved. The spring constant of the spring in $N m^{-1}$ is:

$A$ particle of mass $m$ moving horizontally with velocity $v_0$ strikes a smooth wedge of mass $M$,as shown in the figure. After the collision,the particle starts moving up the inclined face of the wedge and rises to a height $h$. Choose the correct statement$(s)$ related to particle $m$.

$A$ body of mass $5\; kg$ is moving with a momentum of $10\; kg\; m/s$. $A$ force of $0.2\; N$ acts on it in the direction of motion of the body for $10\; s$. Find the increase in its kinetic energy. (in $; J$)

$A$ wooden block of mass $M$ is suspended by a cord and is at rest. $A$ bullet of mass $m$,moving with a velocity $v$,passes through the block and emerges with a velocity $v/2$ in the same direction. If the block rises to a height $H$,calculate the value of $H$.

$A$ ball is dropped from a height of $5\,m$ onto a sandy floor and penetrates the sand up to $1\,m$ before coming to rest. The retardation of the ball in sand (assuming it to be uniform) will be ................ $m/s^2$.

$A$ box of mass $3 \,kg$ moves on a horizontal frictionless table and collides with another box of mass $3 \,kg$ initially at rest on the edge of the table at height $1 \,m$. The speed of the moving box just before the collision is $4 \,m/s$. The two boxes stick together and fall from the table. The kinetic energy just before the boxes strike the floor is (Assume, acceleration due to gravity, $g=10 \,m/s^2$) (in $\,J$)
