Given that initially, A is at rest and C is moving with velocity v0.
The masses of A and C are same, therefore when C hits A elastically, it itself gets stopped and A starts moving with velocity v0. There is a transfer of velocity in an elastic collision.

Therefore,
Work done, W = F X s

When a body is falling from a height h, the kinetic energy of the body increases.
Gain in K.E is at the expense of gravitational P.E. So, the P.E of the body decreases as it falls from a height h.

Therefore, the graph of K.E and P.E of the body vs. height from the ground is given by,
One of the popular unit of power is horse power.

In an elastic collision,
If the mass m1 of the moving ball is greater than the mass m2 of the ball at rest, then after collision both the velocities v1 and v2 will be positive. And two balls will move in the same direction.
And, if the moving ball is lighter than the ball at rest, the two balls will move in the opposite direction.
Given that the two bodies are moving with the same K.E. And also, brakes are applied with equal retarding forces. Therefore, both the bodies will come to rest at the same time.

The absolute value of potential energy and therefore total energy has no physical significance. It is the difference of potential energies that matters. One can, therefore, add or subtract a constant to the potential energy provided we do it to potential energy at every position for a given force without any change in the physical situation. By convention, for forces which fall off to zero at large distances, the potential energy at infinity is taken to be zero. With this choice, is the potential energy positive or negative for,
(a) electron-position bound state,
(b) planet-satellite system,
(c) electron-electron system?
(a) Because e–, e+ pair attracts each other due to electrostatic force, and if potential energy at infinity is taken to be zero, then an electron-positron pair in the bound state will have negative potential energy.
(b) The planet-satellite system attracts each other due to gravitational force. Therefore, the system has negative energy.
(c) Electron-electron repels each other, therefore to bring them close to each other, energy is required which is stored in the form of potential energy. Therefore, the potential energy of system becomes positive.

The given question can be illustrated using the figure below:
AB and AC are two smooth planes inclined to the horizontal at ∠θ1 and ∠θ2 respectively.
The height of both the planes is the same, therefore, both the stones will reach the bottom with same speed.
As P.E. at O = K.E. at A = K.E. at B
Therefore,
mgh = 1/2 mv12 = 1/2 mv22
∴ v1 = v2
As it is clear from fig. above, acceleration of the two blocks are
a1 = g sin θ1 ,
a2 = g sin θ2
As θ2 > θ1
∴ a2 > a1
From v = u + at
= 0 + at t = v/a
As t ∝ 1/a, and a2 > a1
∴ t2 < t1
That is, the second stone will take lesser time and reach the bottom earlier than the first stone.

Define the term elasticity
Elasticity is a measure of a variable's sensitivity to a change in another variable. In business and economics, elasticity refers to the degree to which individuals, consumers or producers change their demand or the amount supplied in response to price or income changes. It is predominantly used to assess the change in consumer demand as a result of a change in a good or service's price.

Inelastic collision:- The deformation may not be relieved and the two bodies could move together after the collision. A collision in which two particles move together after the collision is called completely inelastic collision. Collision in which momentum of the system is conserved but not the kinetic energy are called inelastic collisions. In the above cases, collision of two glass ball is an inelastic collision.

Since, here nuclear target is heavy it can be assumed safely that it will remain stationary and will not move due to the Coulombic interaction force.
At distance of closest approach relative velocity of two particles is v. Here target is considered as stationary, so a-particle comes to rest instantaneously at distance of closest approach. Let the required distance is 'r' then from work energy-theorem.

For inelastic collision between two spherical rigid bodies
the total kinetic energy is conserved
the total mechanical energy is not conserved
the linear momentum is not conserved
the linear momentum is conserved
D.
the linear momentum is conserved
In an inelastic collision, the particles do not regain their shape and size completely after collision. Some fraction of mechanical energy is retained by the colliding particles in the form of deformation potential energy. Thus, the kinetic energy of particles no longer remains conserved. However in the absence of external forces, law of conservation of linear momentum still holds good.

One end of a massless spring of constant 100 N /m and natural length 0.5 m is fixed and the other end is connected to a particle of mass 0.5 kg lying on a frictionless horizontal table.

For the circular motion acceleration towards the centre is .
The horizontal force on the particle is I due to the spring and kl,
where, l is the elongation
k is spring constant of spring.
kl =

kl = mω2 ( lo + l )
⇒ kl - mω2 ( lo + l ) = 0
⇒ ( k - mω2) l = mω2 lo

l = 1 cm
Hence elongation(l) in spring is 1 cm.
A block of mass 2 kg is pushed against a rough vertical wall with a force of 40 N, coefficient of static friction being 0.5. Another horizontal force of 15 N, is applied
on the block in a direction parallel to the wall. If the block will move, then its direction would be

53o with 15 N force
45o with 15 N force
75o with 15N force

53o with 15 N force
Now, When a force of 40N is applied, it will be balanced by the normal reaction from the wall

This is greater than the 20N (friction), therefore block will move
∴ Direction

So, the block will move at an angle 53° with the 15 N force.

When two bodies of same mass undergo an elastic collision, their velocities are interchanged after collision. Water and heavy water are hydrogenic materials containing protons having approximately the same mass as that of a neutron. When fast moving neutrons collide with protons, the neutrons come to rest and protons move with the velocity of that of neutrons.
Assertion: KE is conserved at every instant of elastic collision.
Reason: No deformation of matter occurs in
elastic collision.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

If both assertion and reason are false.
Kinetic energy is not conserved at every instant of elastic collision because there will be friction and deformation losses of energy.
A mass M is tied to the top of two identical poles of height H using massless strings of equal length. The mass is at height h above the ground at equilibrium. If the distance between poles is L the tension in each string will be

ΔW = P Δt
By using work-energy theorem
v2 = t1/2 dt
Integrating both sides
t1/2 dt
x = t3/2
∴ x ∝ t3/2
displacement ∝ (time)3/2

The total mechanical energy of a system is conserved if the forces doing work on it.
Law of conservation of mechanical energy: the total amount of mechanical energy, in a closed system in the absence of dissipative forces ( eg. friction, air resistance), remains constant. This means that potential energy can become kinetic energy or vice versa, but energy cannot disappear.
According to conservation of mechanical energy
mgh =

An air compressor is powered by a 200 rad/s electric motor using a V-belt drive. The motor pulley is 8 cm in radius, and the tension in the V-belt is 135 N on one side and 45 N on the other. The power of the motor will be
1.44 kW
14.4 kW
2.88 kW
28.8 kW
A.
1.44 kW
Since the net force on the belt is the difference between the two tensions, the torque exerted by the motor on the belt is
Τ = F r
= ( 135 N 45 N ) ( 0.08 m )
Τ = 7.2 N m
The power output of the motor is therefore
P = Τ ω
= ( 72 N.m ) ( 200 rad s-1 )
P = 1440 W
P = 1.44 kW
A string 0.5 m long is used to whirl a 1 kg stone in a vertical circle at a uniform velocity of 5 m s-1. What is the tension in the string when the stone is at the top of the circle?

40.2 N
59.8 N

The weight of the stone is
W = m g
