ΔW = area under P — t graph
= (1/2) (4 + 6) * 7 = 35 J
Work done = change in KE ⇒ 35 = (1/2) * 2 * v² - (1/2) * 2 * (1)² ⇒ v = 6 m/s

U = kr² ⇒ F = -dU/dr = -2kr ; 2kr = mv²/r ⇒ v = √ (2k/m) or T = 2πr/v = 2π√ (m/2k)

To reach at point A particle must cross the peak point.
Loss in KE = gain in PE
v2 = 100
v = 10 m/s

From conservation of momentum
2 * 4 + 4 * 2 = 2v1 + 4v2
8 = v1 + 2v2 ….(1)
From conservation of energy
….(ii)

When relative sliding stops, both move with same velocity.
Only friction acts in horizontal direction.
∴ for system no external force, we can apply conservation of momentum.
1 * 12 + 5 * 0 = 6 * v
v = 2 m/s
Now work done by friction on block = change in kinetic energy of block
w = (1/2)m (2² - 12²) = (1/2) (1) (4 - 144) = (1/2) (-140) = -70 J

Using conversation of momentum in direction perpendicular to the original direction of motion,
mv1 sin 30° = mv2 sin 30°

Power calculations can also differ based on the nature of forces, which are as follows:
- Conservative Forces: Here, work done is path-independent. e.g., gravity, spring force
- Non-Conservative Forces: Work depends on the path. e.g., friction
