$A$ 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 ball starts moving up the inclined face of the wedge and rises to a height $h$. When the particle has risen to a height $h$ on the wedge,choose the correct alternative$(s)$.

  • A
    The particle is stationary with respect to the ground.
  • B
    Both are stationary with respect to the centre of mass.
  • C
    The kinetic energy with respect to the centre of mass is converted into potential energy.
  • D
    Both $(B)$ and $(C)$.

$A$ ring of mass $m = 1 \ kg$ and radius $R = 1.25 \ m$ is kept on a rough horizontal ground. $A$ small body of same mass $m = 1 \ kg$ is stuck to the top of the ring. When it is given a slight push forward,the ring starts rolling purely on the ground. What is the maximum speed of the centre of the ring (in $m/s$)?

$A$ bar of mass $M=1.00 \ kg$ and length $L=0.20 \ m$ is lying on a horizontal frictionless surface. One end of the bar is pivoted at a point about which it is free to rotate. $A$ small mass $m=0.10 \ kg$ is moving on the same horizontal surface with $5.00 \ m \ s^{-1}$ speed on a path perpendicular to the bar. It hits the bar at a distance $L/2$ from the pivoted end and returns back on the same path with speed $v$. After this elastic collision,the bar rotates with an angular velocity $\omega$. Which of the following statements is correct?
