    Figure shows two block A and B , each having a mass of 320 g connected by a light string passing over a smooth light pulley. The horizontal surface on which the block A can slide is smooth. The block A is attached to spring constant 40 N//m whose other end is fixed to a support 40 cm above the horizontal surface. Initially, the spring is vertical and unstretched when the system is released to move. Find the velocity of the block A at the instant it breaks off the surface below it. Take g = 10 m//s^(2) .

    You have a block of a mystery material, 12 cm long, 11 cm wide and 3.5 cm thick. Its mass is 1155 grams. (a) What is its density? (b ) Will it float in a tank of water, or sink?

    We often have the experience of pumping air into bicycle tyre using hand pump. Consider the air inside the pump as a thermodynamic system having volume V at atmospheric pressure and room temperature, 27^(@)C . Assume that the nozzle of the tyre is blocked and you push the pump to a volume 1//4 of V. Calculate the final temperature of air in the pump? (For air, since the nozzle is blocked air will not flow into tyre and it can be treated as an adiabatic compression). Take gamma for air = 1.4
