An engine pumps water continuously through a hose. Water leaves the hose with velocity $v$ and $m$ is the mass per unit length of the water jet. If this jet hits a surface and comes to rest instantaneously,the force on the surface is

  • A
    $mv^3$
  • B
    $mv^2$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2}mv^3$

$A$ solid horizontal surface is covered with a thin layer of oil. $A$ rectangular block of mass $m = 0.4 \ kg$ is at rest on this surface. An impulse of $1.0 \ N \ s$ is applied to the block at time $t = 0$ so that it starts moving along the $x$-axis with a velocity $v(t) = v_0 e^{-t/\tau}$,where $v_0$ is a constant and $\tau = 4 \ s$. The displacement of the block,in metres,at $t = \tau$ is. . . . . . . Take $e^{-1} = 0.37$.
