Underline the correct alterntaive: a) when a conservative force does positivie work on a body, the potential energy of the body increase/decreases/remains unaltered. work done by a body against friction always results in a loss of its kinetic /potential energy. c) The rate of change of total momentum of a many-particle system is proportional to the external force/ sum of the internal forces on the system. d) In an inelastic collision of two bodies, the quantities which do not change after the collision are the total kinetic energy/total linear momentum/total enregy of the system of two bodies.

A He^(+) ion is at rest and is in ground state. A necutron with intial kinetic energy K collides heads on with the He^(+) ion. Find minimum value of K so that there can be an inelastic collision between these two particals.

Anwer carefully, with reasons: a) In an elastic collision of two billiard balls, is the total kinetic energy conserved during the short time of collision of the balls (i.e. when they are in contact)? Is the total linear momentum conserved during the short time of an elastic collision of two balls? c) What are the answers to a) and b) for an inelastic collision? d) If the potenital energy of two billiard balls depends only on the separation distance between their centers, is the collision elastic or inelastic? (note we are talking here of potential energy corresponding to the force during collision, not gravitational potential energy).

Two blocks A and B of masses in and 2m , respectively, are connected with the help of a spring having spring constant, k as shown in Fig. Initially, both the blocks arc moving with same velocity v on a smooth horizontal plane with the spring in its natural length. During their course of motion, block B makes an inelastic collision with block C of mass m which is initially at rest. The coefficient of restitution for the collision is 1//2 . The maximum compression in the spring is

A ball of mass m is attached to a cord of length L , pivoted at point O , as shown in Fig. The ball is released from rest at point A, swings down and makes an inelastic collision with a block of mass 2m kept on a rough horizontal floor. The coefficient of restitution of collision is e = 2//3 and coefficient of friction between block and surface is After collision, the ball comes momentarily to rest at C when cord makes an angle of theta with the vertical and block moves a distance of 3L//2 on rough horizontal floor before stopping. The values of mu and theta are, respectively,

Assertion : A moving ball having an inelastic collison withh another moving ball can have larger kinetic energy after collision. Reason: During a collision between two bodies, transfer of energy mayh take place from one body to another.
