A ball of mass 2kg dropped from a height H above a horizontal surface rebounds to a height h after one bounce. The graph that relates H to h is shown in figure. If the ball was dropped from an initial height of 81 m and made ten bounces, the kinetic energy of the ball immediately after the second impact with the surface was

A student performs an experiment to determine how the range of a ball depends on the velocity with which it is projected. The "range" is the distance between the points where the ball lends and from where it was projected, assuming it lands at the same height from which it was projected. It each trial, the student uses the same baseball, and launches it at the same angle. Table shows the experimental results. |{:("Trail","Launch speed" (m//s),"Range"(m)),(1,10,8),(2,20,31.8),(3,30,70.7),(4,40,122.5):}| Based on this data, the student then hypothesizes that the range, R, depends on the initial speed v_(0) according to the following equation : R=Cv_(0)^(n) , where C is a constant and n is another constant. The student speculates that the constant C depends on :- (i) The angle at which the ball was launched (ii) The ball's mass (iii) The ball's diameter If we neglect air resistance, then C actually depends on :-

(iii) The time for which A is resting on the table after the first collision & begore it is first jerked off.

A stone is tied to an elastic string of negligible mass and spring constant k. The unstretched length of the string is L and has negligible mass. The other end of the string is fixed to a nail at a point P. Initially the stone is at the same level as the point P. The stone is dropped vertically from point P. (a) Find the distance 'y' from the top when the mass comes to rest for an instant, for the first time. (b) What is the maximum velocity attained by the stone in this drop ? (c) What shall be the nature of the motion after the stone has reached its lowest point ?

An object A of mass 1 kg is projected vertically upward with a speed of 20 m//s . At the same moment another object B of mass 3 kg , which in intially above the object A, is dropped from a height h = 20 m . The two point like objects (A and B) collision and stick to each other. The kinetic energy is K (in J) of the combined mass after collision, find the value of K//25 .

A 3.6m long vertical pipe resonates with a source of frequency 212.5 Hz when water level is at certain height in the pipe. Find the height of water level (from the bottom of the pipe) at which resonance occurs. Neglect end correction. Now , the pipe is filled to a height H (~~ 3.6m) . A small hole is drilled very close to its bottom and water is allowed to leak. Obtain an expression for the rate of fall of water level in the pipe as a function of H . If the radii of the pipe and the hole are 2 xx 10^(-2)m and 1 xx 10^(-3)m respectively, Calculate the time interval between the occurance of first two resonances.
