A body of mass $50\, kg$ is projected vertically upwards with velocity of $100 \,m/sec$. $5 \,seconds$ after this body breaks into $20\, kg$ and $30 \,kg$. If $20\, kg $ piece travels upwards with $150 \,m/sec$, then the velocity of other block will be

The potential energy function for a particle executing linear simple harmonic motion is given by $V(x)=$ $k x^{2} / 2,$ where $k$ is the force constant of the oscillator. For $k=0.5\; N m ^{-1}$ the graph of $V(x)$ versus $x$ is shown in Figure. Show that a particle of total energy $1 \;J$ moving under this potential must 'turn back" when it reaches $x=\pm 2 m$

A body at rest breaks up into $3$ parts. If $2$ parts having equal masses fly off perpendicularly each after with a velocity of $12m/s$, then the velocity of the third part which has $3$ times mass of each part is

A bullet of mass $m$ and speed $v$ hits a pendulum bob of mass $M$ at time $t_1$, and passes completelythrough the bob. The bullet emerges at time $t_2$ with a speed of $v/2$. The pendulum bob is suspended by a stiff rod of length $l$ and negligible mass. After the collision, the bob can barely swing through a complete vertical circle.At time $t_3$, the bob reaches the highest position.What quantities are conserved in this process?
