A ball of mass 0.2 kg rests on a vertical post of height 5 m. A bullet of mass 0.01 kg, traveling with a velocity V m/s in a horizontal direction, hits the center of the ball. After the collision, the ball and bullet travel independently. The ball hits the ground at a distance of 20 m and the bullet at a distance of 100 m from the foot of the post. The velocity V of the bullet is
Look at the drawing given in the figure below which has been drawn with ink of uniform line-thickness. The mass of ink used to draw each of the two inner circles, and each of the two line segments is $$m$$. the mass of the ink used to draw the outer circle is $$6m$$. The coordinates of the centres of the different parts are: outer circle (0, 0), left inner circle ($$-a,a$$), right inner circle ($$a,a$$), vertical line (0, 0) and horizontal line ($$0,-a$$). The y-coordinate of the centre of mass of the ink in this drawing is
Two small particles of equal masses start moving in opposite directions from a point A in a horizontal circular orbit. Their tangential velocities are $$v$$ and 2$$v$$, respectively, as shown in the figure. Between collisions, the particles move with constant speeds. After making how many elastic collisions, other than that at A, these two particles will again reach the point A?
A small block of mass M moves on a frictionless surface of an inclined plane, as shown in figure. The angle of the incline suddenly changes from 60$$^\circ$$ to 30$$^\circ$$ at point B. The block is initially at rest at A. Assume that collisions between the block and the incline are totally inelastic (g = 10 m/s$$^2$$).
If collision between the block and the incline is completely elastic, then the vertical (upward) component of the velocity of the block at point B, immediately after it strikes the second incline is
