In the figure, the block B of mass m starts from rest at the top of a wedge W of mass M . All surfaces are without friction. W can slide on the ground. B slides down onto the ground, moves along it with a speed v, has an elastic collision with the wall, and climbs back on to W .

A block of mass M has a circular cut with a frictionless surface as shown. The block rests on the horizontal frictionless surface of a fixed table. Initially the right edge of the block is at x = 0, in a co-ordinate system fixed to the table. A point mass m is released from rest at the topmost point of the path as shown and it slides down. When the mass loses contact with the block, its position is x and the velocity is v. At that instant, which of the following options is/are correct?

A small block of mass m=2kg is at rest point P of the stationary wedge having frictionless hemispherical track of radius R=4m . The minimum constant acceleration 'a_(0)' ( in m//s^(2) ) is to be given to the wedge in horizontal direction, so that the small block just reaches the point Q as shown in figure. Assume all the contacts are frictionless and g=10m//s^(2) . If a_(0)=2xm//s^(2) . Find the value of x
