$A$ projectile of mass $"m"$ is projected from ground with a speed of $50 \,m/s$ at an angle of $53^o$ with the horizontal. It breaks up into two equal parts at the highest point of the trajectory. One particle coming to rest immediately after the explosion. The ratio of the radii of curvatures of the moving particle just before and just after the explosion are:
$1 : 4$
$1 : 3$
$2 : 3$
$4 : 9$
A person trying to lose weight (dieter) lifts a $10\; kg$ mass, one thousand times, to a hetght of $0.5\; m$ each time. Assume that the potential energy lost each time she lowers the mass is dissipated.
$(a)$ How much work does she do against the gravitational force?
$(b)$ Fat supplies $3.8 \times 10^{7} \;J$ of energy per kilogram which is converted to mechanical energy with a $20 \%$ efficiency rate. How much fat will the dieter use up?
In an elastic collision of two billiard balls, which of the following quantities remain conserved during the short time of collision of the balls ? (i.e. when they are in contact)
$(a)$ Kinetic energy.
$(b)$ Total linear momentum.
Give reason for your answer in each case.
A particle of mass $m$ with initial kinetics energy $K$ approaches the origin from $x =+\infty$. Assume that a conservative force acts on it and its potential energy $V ( x )$ is given by $V ( x )=\frac{ K }{\exp \left(3 x / x _0\right)+\exp \left(-3 x / x _0\right)}$ where, $x_0=1 m$. The speed of the particle at $x =0$ is
A bullet hits and gets embedded in a solid block resting on a horizontal frictionless table. What is conserved ?
A ball is allowed to fall from a height of $10 \,m$. If there is $40 \%$ loss of energy due to impact, then after one impact ball will go up by ........ $m$
