    $\frac{1 - e}{1 + e}$
  • B
    $\frac{1 + e}{1 - e}$
  • C

Two wooden blocks of mass $M_1$ and $M_2$ rest on a frictionless table. $A$ bullet of mass $m$ is fired at $M_1$ with speed $v$,which gets embedded in it,and the two together finally collide with $M_2$. Find the velocity of $M_2$ after the collision. (Assume the collision between the $(M_1+m)$ system and $M_2$ is elastic and treat the problem as one-dimensional.)

$A$ body of mass $m_1$ moving with an unknown velocity $v_1 \hat{i}$ undergoes a one-dimensional collision with a body of mass $m_2$ moving with velocity $v_2 \hat{i}$. After the collision,the bodies $m_1$ and $m_2$ move with velocities $v_3 \hat{i}$ and $v_4 \hat{i}$ respectively. If $m_2 = 0.5\, m_1$ and $v_3 = 0.5\, v_1$,find $v_1$.

$A$ block of mass '$m$' moving on a frictionless horizontal surface collides with a spring of spring constant '$K$' and compresses it through a distance '$x$'. The maximum momentum of the block after collision is

In the figure shown,two identical balls of mass $M$ and radius $R$ each are placed in contact with each other on a frictionless horizontal surface. $A$ third ball of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is coming down vertically and has a velocity $v_0$ when it simultaneously hits the two balls and comes to rest. Then,each of the two bigger balls will move after the collision with a speed equal to:

$A$ boat of mass $1000 \,kg$ goes from rest to a speed of $20.0 \,m/s$ in $5.0 \,s$. The water exerts a constant drag force and the acceleration of the boat is constant. If the average power required by the boat is $45000 \,W$, then the magnitude of the drag force is: (in $\,N$)
