A particle (m=1 kg) slides down a frictionless track (AOC) starting from rest at a point A (height 2 m). After reaching C, the particle continues to move freely in air as a projectile. When it reaches its highest point P (height 1 m), the kinetic energy of the particle (in J) is: (Figure drawn is schematic and not to scale; take g=10 m s-2

Consider a vertical tube open at both ends. The tube consists of two parts, each of different cross-sections and each part having a piston which can move smoothly in respective tubes. The two pistons are joined together by an inextensible wire. The combined mass of the two pistons is 5 kg and area of cross-section of the upper piston is 10 cm2 greater than that of the lower piston. The amount of gas enclosed by the pistons is one mole. When the gas is heated slowly, the pistons moves by 50 cm as shown in figure. The rise in temperature of the gas is in the form XR K, where R is universal gas constant. Use, g=10 m s-2 and outside pressure=105 N m-2. Fill value of X.
