A body of mass 2kg moving with a speed of 4ms−1 makes an elastic collision with another body at rest and continues to move in the original direction but with one fourth of its initial speed. The speed of the two body centre of mass is x/10. Find the value of x.

If $\epsilon, E$ and $t$ represent the free space permittivity, electric field and time respectively, then the unit of $\frac{\epsilon E}{t}$ will be :
When a part of a straight capillary tube is placed vertically in a liquid, the liquid raises upto certain height $h$. If the inner radius of the capillary tube, density of the liquid and surface tension of the liquid decrease by $1 \%$ each, then the height of the liquid in the tube will change by $\%$.
The velocity of a particle is given as $\vec{v} = -x\hat{i} + 2y\hat{j} - z\hat{k}$ m/s. The magnitude of acceleration at point $(1, 2, 4)$ is _______ m/s$^2$.
Suppose there is a uniform circular disc of mass $M \mathrm{~kg}$ and radius $r \mathrm{~m}$ shown in figure. The shaded regions are cut out from the disc. The moment of inertia of the remainder about the axis $A$ of the disc is given by $\frac{x}{256} M r^{2}$. The value of $x$ is $\_\_\_\_$. 
A soap bubble of surface tension $0.04 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}$ is blown to a diameter of 7 cm. If $(15000-x) \mu \mathrm{J}$ of work is done in blowing it further to make its diameter 14 cm, then the value of $x$ is $\_\_\_\_$. ($\pi=22 / 7$)
