A block of mass 1 kg is pushed towards another block of mass 2 kg from 6 m distance as shown in figure. Just after colision velocity of 2 kg block becomes 4 m//s .

Figure shows a smooth track, a part of which is a circle of radius r . A block of mass m is pushed against a spring of spring constant k fixed at the left end and is then released. Find the initial compression of the spring so that the block presses the track with a force mg when it reaches the point P, where the radius of the track is horizontal.

Block A has a mass 3kg and is sliding on a rough horizontal surface with a velocity u_A=2m//s when it makes a direct collision with block B, which has a mass of 2kg and is originally at rest. The collision is perfectly elastic. Determine the velocity of each block just after collision and the distance between the blocks when they stop sliding. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the blocks and the plane is mu_k=0.3 ( Take g=10m//s^2 )
