$A$ body of mass $2 \, \text{kg}$ moving with a speed of $4 \, \text{m/s}$ makes an elastic collision with another body at rest and continues to move in the original direction but with one-fourth of its initial speed. The speed of the two-body centre of mass is $\frac{x}{10} \, \text{m/s}$. Then the value of $x$ is ..... .

  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $75$

$A$ block moving horizontally on a smooth surface with a speed of $40 \, m/s$ splits into two equal parts. If one of the parts moves at $60 \, m/s$ in the same direction,then the fractional change in the kinetic energy will be $x: 4$ where $x = ..... .$

Consider the following two statements: $[A]$ The linear momentum of a system is zero. $[B]$ The kinetic energy of the particles of the system is zero.

$A$ man of mass $60$ $kg$ wants to lose $5$ $kg$ of mass by climbing up and down stairs. Assume that twice the amount of fat is burned while climbing up compared to climbing down. If burning $1$ $kg$ of fat provides $7000$ $kcal$ of energy, how many times must he climb up and down the stairs to lose $5$ $kg$ of mass (in $\times$)? (Assume the energy spent in climbing up is $20$ $kcal$ and climbing down is $10$ $kcal$ per trip).

As shown in the figure,a block of mass $2 \ kg$ is released from point $P$. It slides $0.5 \ m$ on the inclined plane before hitting a spring. The spring constant is $4000 \ N/m$. The coefficient of friction between the block and the inclined plane is $0.3$. The compression in the spring will be ............... $mm$.
