$A$ block of mass $1.9\, kg$ is at rest at the edge of a table of height $1\, m$. $A$ bullet of mass $0.1\, kg$ collides with the block and sticks to it. If the velocity of the bullet is $20\, m/s$ in the horizontal direction just before the collision,then the kinetic energy just before the combined system strikes the floor is $....J$. (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$. Assume there is no rotational motion and loss of energy after the collision is negligible.)

Fill in the blanks:
$(a)$ If the momentum of an object is doubled,its kinetic energy becomes ........
$(b)$ For a perfectly inelastic collision,the coefficient of restitution $e$ $=$ .....
$(c)$ An appliance with $1\,kW$ power consumes $1\,kWh$ of energy in ....... time.

$A$ particle of mass $3 \ kg$ is moved slowly along the path $ABCDE$ from $A$ to $E$. The heights of $B$,$C$,and $D$ are $5 \ m$,$4 \ m$,and $6 \ m$ respectively. The total path length is $20 \ m$,the horizontal distance $AE = 10 \ m$,and the coefficient of friction $\mu = 0.6$. Calculate the work done in $J$ to slowly move the mass from $A$ to $E$. (Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

Answer carefully,with reasons:
$(a)$ In an elastic collision of two billiard balls,is the total kinetic energy conserved during the short time of collision of the balls (i.e.,when they are in contact)?
$(b)$ Is the total linear momentum conserved during the short time of an elastic collision of two balls?
$(c)$ What are the answers to $(a)$ and $(b)$ for an inelastic collision?
$(d)$ If the potential energy of two billiard balls depends only on the separation distance between their centres,is the collision elastic or inelastic?
(Note: We are talking here of potential energy corresponding to the force during collision,not gravitational potential energy.)

Two massless strings of length $5\, m$ hang from the ceiling very near to each other as shown in the figure. Two balls $A$ and $B$ of masses $0.25\, kg$ and $0.5\, kg$ are attached to the strings. The ball $A$ is released from rest at a height of $0.45\, m$ as shown in the figure. The collision between the two balls is completely elastic. Immediately after the collision,the kinetic energy of ball $B$ is $1\, J$. The velocity of ball $A$ just after the collision is

In the diagram shown,there is no friction at any contact surface. Initially,the spring has no deformation. What will be the maximum deformation in the spring? Consider all the strings to be sufficiently large. Consider the spring constant to be $K$.
