The figure shows a block having a small basket in it and an small inclined plane is rigidly attached to the block. The combined mass (including incline plane) of all these is M=5 kg. Initially they are at rest. Now identical balls each of mass m=1 kg are thrown horizontally with velocity v=5 m s-1 (with respect to ground) which strike the inclined plane and then are collected in the small basket. Assume that in the basket balls come to rest with respect to basket.

EASY
A body of mass M moving with velocity v explodes into two equal parts. If one part comes to rest and the other part moves with velocity v0; what would be the value of v0?

A man holding a rifle (mass of person and rifle together is 100 kg) stands on a smooth surface and fires 10 shots horizontally in 5 sec. Each bullet has a mass 10 g with a muzzle velocity of 800 m s-1. The velocity which the rifle man attains after firing 10 shots will be

A trolley having mass of 200 kg moves with uniform speed of 36 kmh-1 on a frictionless track. A child of mass 20 kg runs on the trolley from one end to the other (10 m away)  with a speed of 4 m s-1 relative to the trolley in a direction opposite to its motion and ultimately jumps out of the trolley. With how much velocity has the trolley moved from the time the child begins to run?

A bomb of mass 18 kg at rest explodes into two pieces of masses 6 kg and 12 kg. The velocity of 12 kg mass is 4 m/s. The kinetic energy of the other mass is

Two particles which are initially at rest move towards each other under the action of their mutual attraction. If their speeds are v and 2v at any instant, then the speed of center of mass of the system is,

HARD
An object of mass 5 kg is projected with a velocity 20 m s-1 at an angle 60°, to the horizontal. At the highest point of its path, the projectile explodes and breaks up into two fragments of masses 1 kg and 4 kg. The fragments separate horizontally after the explosion, which releases internal energy such that the KE of the system af the highest point is doubled. The separation between the two fragments when they reach the ground is

A block moving horizontally on a smooth surface with a speed of 40 m s-1 splits into two parts with masses in the ratio of 1 : 2. If the smaller part moves at 60 m s-1 in the same direction, then the fractional change in kinetic energy is :

A block of mass m attached to a massless spring is performing oscillatory motion of amplitude 'A' on a frictionless horizontal plane. If half of the mass of the block breaks off when it is passing through its equilibrium point, the amplitude of oscillation for the remaining system become ƒA. The value of ƒ is:

A block of mass m=1 kg slides with velocity v=6 m s-1 on a frictionless horizontal surface and collides with a uniform vertical rod and sticks to it as shown. The rod is pivoted about O and swings as a result of the collision making angle θ before momentarily coming to rest. if the rod has mass M=2 kg, and length =1 m, the value of θ is approximately(take g=10 m s-2

A ball of mass 10 kg moving with a velocity 103 m s-1 along X-axis, hits another ball of mass 20 kg which is at rest. After the collision, the first ball comes to rest and the second one disintegrates into two equal pieces. One of the pieces starts moving along Y-axis at a speed of 10 m s-1. The second piece starts moving at a speed of 20 m s-1 at an angle θ (degree) with respect to the X-axis. The configuration of pieces after the collision is shown in the figure. The value of θ(in degrees) to the nearest integer is _________.
