A box contains 2 black, 4 white, and 3 red balls. One ball is drawn at random from the box and kept aside. From the remaining balls in the box, another ball is drawn at random and kept aside the first. This process is repeated till all the balls are drawn front the box.

A large , heavy box is sliding without friction down a smooth plane of inclination theta . From a point P on the bottom of the box , a particle is projected inside the box . The initial speed of the particle with respect to the box is u , and the direction of projection makes an angle alpha with the bottom as shown in Figure . (a) Find the distance along the bottom of the box between the point of projection p and the point Q where the particle lands . ( Assume that the particle does not hit any other surface of the box . Neglect air resistance .) (b) If the horizontal displacement of the particle as seen by an observer on the ground is zero , find the speed of the box with respect to the ground at the instant when particle was projected .

A ball of mass m=1kg falling vertically with a velocity v_0=2m//s strikes a wedge of mass M=2kg kept on a smooth, horizontal surface as shown in figure. If impulse between ball and wedge during collision is J. Then make two equations which relate J with velocity components of wedge and ball. Also find impulse on wedges from ground during impact.

A ball collides elastically with a massive wall moving towards it with a velocity of v as shown. The collision occurs at a height of h above ground level and the velocity of the ball just before collision is 2v in horizontal direction. The distance between the foot of the wall and the point on the ground where the ball lands, at the instant the ball lands, will be :
