Calculate the $$K.E$$ and $$P.E.$$ of the ball half way up, when a ball of mass $$0.1\,kg$$ is thrown vertically upwards with an initial speed of $$20\,m{s^{ - 1}}.$$
Total energy at the time of projection
$$ = \frac{1}{2}m{v^2} = \frac{1}{2} \times 0.1{\left( {20} \right)^2} = 20\,J$$
Half way up, $$P.E.$$ becomes half the $$P.E.$$ at the top i.e. $$P.E. = \frac{{20}}{2} = 10\,J$$
$$\therefore K.E. = 20 - 10 = 10J.$$

A block lying on a smooth surface with spring connected to it is pulled by an external force as shown. Initially the velocity of ends $$A$$ and $$B$$ of the spring are $$4\,m/s$$ and $$2\,m/s$$ respectively. If the energy of the spring is increasing at the rate of $$20\,J/sec,$$ then the stretch in the spring is
Let $${x_A}$$ and $${x_B}$$ be the position of ends $$A$$ and $$B$$ at time $$t$$ from the block, then stretched length of the spring will be
$${\ell _2} = {x_A} - {x_B}$$
and so the stretch
$$\eqalign{
& \Delta \ell = {\ell _2} - {\ell _1} = \left( {{x_A} - {x_B}} \right) - {\ell _1}\left( {{\ell _1}\,{\text{natural}}\,{\text{length}}\,{\text{of}}\,{\text{the}}\,{\text{spring}}} \right) \cr
& {\text{So,}}\,\,U = \frac{1}{2}k\Delta {\ell ^2} = \frac{1}{2}k{\left[ {\left( {{x_A} - {x_B}} \right) - {\ell _1}} \right]^2} \cr
& P = \frac{{dU}}{{dt}} = \frac{1}{2}k \cdot 2\left( {{x_A} - {x_B} - {\ell _1}} \right)\left( {\frac{{d{x_A}}}{{dt}} - \frac{{d{x_B}}}{{dt}}} \right) \cr
& P = F\left( {{v_A} - {v_B}} \right)\,\,F = \frac{P}{{{v_A} - {v_B}}} \cr
& \Delta \ell = \frac{F}{k} = \frac{P}{{\left( {{v_A} - {v_B}} \right)k}} = \frac{{20}}{{\left( {4 - 2} \right) \times 100}} \cr
& \Delta \ell = 0.1\,m = 10\,cm \cr} $$

Two small bodies of masses $$'m'$$ and $$'2m'$$ are placed in a fixed smooth horizontal circular hollow tube of mean radius $$'r'$$ as shown. The mass $$'m'$$ is moving with speed $$'u'$$ and the mass $$'2\,m'$$ is stationary. After their first collision, the time elapsed for next collision is [ coefficient of restitution $$e = \frac{1}{2}$$ ]
If just after collision, relative velocity $$ = v$$ then
$$\eqalign{
& \frac{v}{u} = \frac{1}{2} \cr
& \therefore {\omega _{{\text{rel}}}} = \frac{v}{r} = \frac{u}{{2r}} \cr} $$
$$\therefore $$ time between $${1^{{\text{st}}}}$$ and $${2^{{\text{nd}}}}$$ collision, $$t = \frac{{2\pi }}{{{\omega _{{\text{rel}}}}}}$$
$$ = \frac{{4\pi r}}{u}$$

A wind-powered generator converts wind energy into electrical energy. Assume that the generator converts a fixed fraction of the wind energy intercepted by its blades into electrical energy. For wind speed $$v,$$ the electrical power output will be proportional to
$$\eqalign{
& \frac{{{\text{Number of particles string the blades}}}}{{{\text{time}}}} \propto {\text{Velocity of wind}} \cr
& K.E.{\text{ of particle}} \propto {\left( {{\text{Velocity of wind}}} \right)^2}{\text{ }} \cr
& \therefore {\text{Power output}} \propto \left( {\frac{{{\text{No}}{\text{. of particles striking}}}}{{{\text{time}}}}} \right) \times \left( {K.E.{\text{ of particle}}} \right) \cr
& \therefore {\text{Power output}} \propto {v^3} \cr} $$

Consider a drop of rain water having mass $$1\,g$$ falling from a height of $$1\,km.$$ It hits the ground with a speed of $$50\,m/s.$$ Take $$g$$ constant with a value of $$10\,m/{s^2}.$$ The work done by the (i) gravitational force and the (ii) resistive force of air is
A
$$\left( {\text{i}} \right) - 10\,J,\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right) - 8.25\,J$$
B
$$\left( {\text{i}} \right)1.25\,J,\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right) - 8.25\,J$$
C
$$\left( {\text{i}} \right)100\,J,\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)8.75\,J$$
D
$$\left( {\text{i}} \right)10\,J,\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right) - 8.75\,J$$
By work-$$KE$$ theorem, we have change in $$KE = $$ work done by all of the forces. Work done by gravitational force,
$${W_g} = mgh = {10^{ - 3}} \times 10 \times 1 \times {10^3} = 10\,J$$
Now, from work-$$KE$$ theorem, we have $$\Delta K = {W_{{\text{gravity}}}} + {W_{{\text{air}}\,{\text{resistance}}}}$$
$$\eqalign{
& \Rightarrow \frac{1}{2} \times m{v^2} = mgh + {W_{{\text{air}}\,{\text{resistance}}}} \cr
& \Rightarrow {W_{{\text{air}}\,{\text{resistance}}}} = \frac{1}{2}m{v^2} - mgh \cr
& = {10^{ - 3}}\left( {\frac{1}{2} \times 50 \times 50 - 10 \times {{10}^3}} \right) \cr
& = - 8.75\,J \cr} $$

A $$10$$ H.P. motor pumps out water from a well of depth $$20\,m$$ and fills a water tank of volume $$22380$$ litres at a height of $$10\,m$$ from the ground. The running time of the motor to fill the empty water tank is
$$\left( {g = 10\,m{s^{ - 2}}} \right)$$
Volume of water to raise $$ = 22380\,l$$
$$\eqalign{
& = 22380 \times {10^{ - 3}}\;{m^3} \cr
& P = \frac{{mgh}}{t} = \frac{{V\rho gh}}{t} \Rightarrow t = \frac{{V\rho gh}}{P} \cr
& t = \frac{{22380 \times {{10}^{ - 3}} \times {{10}^3} \times 10 \times 10}}{{10 \times 746}} = 15\,\min \cr} $$

A force $$F$$ acting on an object varies with distance $$x$$ as shown here. The force is in newton and $$x$$ is in metre. The work done by the force in moving the object from $$x = 0$$ to $$x = 6\,m$$ is
Work done in moving the object from $$x = 0$$ to $$x = 6\,m,$$ is given by area under the curve.
$$W =$$ Area of square + area of triangle
$$ = 3 \times 2 + \frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 3 = 9 + 4.5 = 13.5\,J$$

A uniform force of $$\left( {3\hat i + \hat j} \right)$$ newton acts on a particle of mass $$2\,kg.$$ The particle is displaced from position $$\left( {2\hat i + \hat k} \right)$$ meter to position $$\left( {4\hat i + 3\hat j - \hat k} \right)$$ meter. The work done by the force on the particle is
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Given:}}\,\overrightarrow F = 3\hat i + \widehat j \cr
& \overrightarrow {{r_1}} = \left( {2\hat i + \hat k} \right),\overrightarrow {{r_2}} = \left( {4\hat i + 3\hat j - \vec k} \right) \cr
& \overrightarrow r = \overrightarrow {{r_2}} - \overrightarrow {{r_1}} = \left( {4\hat i + 3\hat j - \vec k} \right) - \left( {2\hat i + \hat k} \right) \cr
& {\text{or}}\,\overrightarrow r = 2\widehat i + 3\widehat j - 2\widehat k \cr} $$
So work done by the given force $$w = \overrightarrow f .\overrightarrow r $$
$$ = \left( {3\hat i + \hat j} \right).\left( {2\hat i + 3\hat j - 2\hat k} \right) = 6 + 3 = 9\,J$$

Let $$x$$ be the extension in the spring.
Applying conservation of energy
$$\eqalign{
& Mgx - \frac{1}{2}k{x^2} = 0 - 0 \cr
