A body of mass 1 kg falls freely from a height of 100 m, on a platform mass 3 kg which is mounted on a spring having spring constant k = 1.25 $$ \times $$ 10⁶ N/m. The body sticks to the platform and the spring's maximum compression is found to be x. Given that g = 10 ms^–2 , the value of x will be close to :

A liquid of density $$\rho $$ is coming out of a hose pipe of radius a with horizontal speed $$\upsilon $$ and hits a mesh. 50% of the liquid passes through the mesh unaffected. 25% looses all of its momentum and 25% comes back with the same speed. The resultant pressure on the mesh will be :

A body is projected at t = 0 with a velocity 10 ms^–1 at an angle of 60^o with the horizontal. The radius of curvature of its trajectory at t = 1s is R. neglecting air resistance and taking acceleration due to gravity g = 10 ms^–2, the value of R is :

Equation of travelling wave on a stretched string of linear density 5 g/m is y = 0.03 sin(450 t – 9x) where distance and time are measured in SI units. The tension in the string is :
