  • B

$A$ body of mass $5\,kg$ rests on a rough horizontal surface of coefficient of friction $0.2$. The body is pulled through a distance of $10\,m$ by a horizontal force of $25\,N$. The kinetic energy acquired by it is ......... $J$.

Underline the correct alternative:
$(a)$ When a conservative force does positive work on a body,the potential energy of the body increases/decreases/remains unaltered.
$(b)$ Work done by a body against friction always results in a loss of its kinetic/potential energy.
$(c)$ The rate of change of total momentum of a many-particle system is proportional to the external force/sum of the internal forces on the system.
$(d)$ In an inelastic collision of two bodies,the quantities which do not change after the collision are the total kinetic energy/total linear momentum/total energy of the system of two bodies.

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ of masses $20 \ kg$ and $5 \ kg$ respectively are at rest. Due to the action of a force of $40 \ N$ separately,if the two bodies acquire equal kinetic energies in times $t_A$ and $t_B$ respectively,then $t_A: t_B=$

Two blocks of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are connected by a spring of spring constant $k$,initially at their natural length as shown. $A$ sharp impulse is given to mass $m_2$ so that it acquires a velocity $v_0$ towards the right. If the system is kept on a smooth floor,find the maximum elongation that the spring will suffer.
