A bullet is fired from a rifle. If the rifle recoils freely, then the kinetic energy of the rifle is
Less than that of the bullet
More than that of the bullet
Same as that of the bullet
Equal or less than that of the bullet
The bob of a simple pendulum (mass m and length $ l$) dropped from a horizontal position strikes a block of the same mass elastically placed on a horizontal frictionless table. The K.E. of the block will be
A running man has half the kinetic energy of that of a boy of half of his mass. The man speeds up by $1\,m/s$ so as to have same K.E. as that of the boy. The original speed of the man will be
Two solids $A$ and $B$ of mass $1\, kg$ and $2\, kg$ respectively are moving with equal linear momentum. The ratio of their kinetic energies $(K.E.)_{ A }:( K.E. )_{ B }$ will be $\frac{ A }{1},$ so the value of $A$ will be ..... .
Consider the following two statements
$1.$ Linear momentum of a system of particles is zero
$2.$ Kinetic energy of a system of particles is zeroThen
A particle $A$ is projected vertically upwards. Another particle $B$ is projected at an angle of $45^{\circ}$. Both reach the same height. The ratio of the initial kinetic energy of $A$ to that of $B$ is
