CM rises through height h, so its velocity after collision =2gh
Apply conservation of linear momentum.
0.01×400=2×2gh+0.01×v
⇒v=120m/s

A bullet of mass 10g moving horizontally with a velocity of 400ms−1 strikes a wooden block of mass 2kg which is suspended by a light inextensible string of length 5m. As a result, the centre of gravity of the block is found to rise a vertical distance of 10cm. The speed of the bullet after it emerges out horizontally from the block will be

A bullet of mass 10 g moving with 400 m/s penetrates a wall and comes to rest. The loss in kinetic energy is:
A body weighs 48 N on the surface of the earth. The gravitational force experienced by the body due to the earth at a height equal to one-third the radius of the earth from its surface is :
There are two inclined surface of equal length (L) and same angle of inclination $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. One of them is rough and the other is perfectly smooth. A given body takes 2 times as much time to slide down on rough surface than on the smooth surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction $\left(\mu_k\right)$ between the object and the rough surface is close to :
In some appropriate units, time $(t)$ and position ( x ) relation of a moving particle is given by $t=x^2+x$. The acceleration of the particle is
Two cities X and Y are connected by a regular bus service with a bus leaving in either direction every T min. A girl is driving scooty with a speed of 60 $\mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}$ in the direction X to Y notices that a bus goes past her every 30 minutes in the direction of her motion, and every 10 minutes in the opposite direction. Choose the correct option for the period T of the bus service and the speed (assumed constant) of the buses.
