A small ball of mass m is thrown upward with velocity u from the ground. The ball experiences a resistive force mkv² where v is its speed. The maximum height attained by the ball is :

A mass of 10 kg is suspended by a rope of length 4 m, from the ceiling. A force F is applied horizontally at the mid point of the rope such that the top half of the rope makes an angle of 45^o with the vertical. Then F equal : (Take g = 10 ms^–2 and the rope to be massless)

A spring whose unstretched length is l has a force constant k. The spring is cut into two pieces of unstretched lengths l₁ and l₂ where, l₁ = nl₂ and n is an integer. The ratio k₁/k₂ of the corresponding force constant, k₁ and k₂ will be :

A block of mass 5 kg is (i) pushed in case (A) and (ii) pulled in case (B), by a force F = 20 N, making an angle of 30^o with the horizontal, as shown in the figures. The coefficient of friction between the block and floor is $$\mu $$ = 0.2. The difference between the accelerations of the blocks, in case (B) and case (A) will be : (g = 10 ms^–2)
