$A$ particle is moving in a circle of radius $r$ under the action of a force $F = \alpha r^2$ which is directed towards the centre of the circle. The total mechanical energy (kinetic energy + potential energy) of the particle is (take potential energy $= 0$ for $r = 0$).

When a body moves in a circular path,no work is done by the force,since

Identify the type of collision for the following cases:
$(a)$ Collision between a negatively charged object and a positively charged object.
$(b)$ Collision between two very large objects.
$(c)$ Collision between two quartz balls.

$A$ ball is thrown from $10 \, m$ height at speed $v_0$ vertically downward. Upon colliding with the surface of the earth,it loses $50 \%$ of its energy and again reaches the same height. The value of $v_0$ is: ................. $m/s$

$A$ slide with a frictionless curved surface,which becomes horizontal at its lower end,is fixed on the terrace of a building of height $3h$ from the ground,as shown in the figure. $A$ spherical ball of mass $m$ is released on the slide from rest at a height $h$ from the top of the terrace. The ball leaves the slide with a velocity $\vec{u}_0 = u_0 \hat{x}$ and falls on the ground at a distance $d$ from the building,making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. It bounces off with a velocity $\vec{v}$ and reaches a maximum height $h_1$. The acceleration due to gravity is $g$ and the coefficient of restitution of the ground is $e = 1 / \sqrt{3}$. Which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?
$(A)$ $\vec{u}_0 = \sqrt{2gh} \hat{x}$
$(B)$ $\vec{v} = \sqrt{2gh} \hat{x} + \sqrt{2gh} \hat{z}$
$(C)$ $\theta = 60^{\circ}$
$(D)$ $d / h_1 = 2\sqrt{3}$

$A$ ball falls freely from rest on to a hard horizontal floor and repeatedly bounces. If the velocity of the ball just before the first bounce is $7 \text{ m/s}$ and the coefficient of restitution is $0.75$. The total distance travelled by the ball before it comes to rest is (acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \text{ m/s}^2$) (in $\text{ m}$)
