This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
mass of the rain drop = 1g=1
Height of falling h= 1km = 103m and g = 10m/s2 and sped of drop =50m/s
(a) Loss of PE of the drop =mgh= 1
(b) Gain in KE of the drop = 1/2mv2= ½ =1.250J
(c) No gain in KE is not equal to the loss in its Pe, because a part of PE is utilised in doing work against the viscous drag in air.

When the ball A reaches bottom point its velocity in horizontal direction
(a) two balls have same mass and the collision between them is elastic therefore ball A transfers its entire linear momentum to ball B. hence ball A will come to rest after collision and does not rise at all.
(b) speed at B = speed with which A hits the ball B

TE=KE+PE
E=V+K
For region A given V>E
so 'K=E-V
V>E
So E-V <0
Hence K<0 this is not possible.
For region B given V
So E-V>0
This is only possible because total energy is greater than PE
For region C given K>E
So K-E>0
So PE =V= E-K <0
Which is possible because PE can be negative.
For region D given V>K
This is possible because for the system PE may be greater than KE

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Let v1 and v2 are velocities of two balls after collision
According to conservation of momentum
2mvo = mv1+ mv2
2vo= v1+v2
and e= v2-v1/2vo
v2=v1+2voe
2v1=2vo-2evo
V1=vo (1-e) since e<1 so ball will move after collision.
b)by principle of conservation of linear momentum

P=P1+P2
For inelastic collision some KE is lost hence >
P2>p12+p22
Thus P, P1 and P2 are related as shown in fig
P2>p12+p22 this condition only holds when angle is 90.

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
mechanical energy =KE+PE
Eo = KE + V (x)
KE= E0 -V (x)
At A x=0 v (x)=Eo
KE= Eo-Eo =0
atB, V (x)
so KE>0
at C and D, V (x)= 0
KE is maximum at FV (x)= Eo

Hence KE= 0
As KE= 1/2mv2
Therefore at A and F where KE =0, v=0

At C and D KE is maximum therefore v is maximum.
At B KE is positive but not maximum but it has some value.

At B the velocity of B is vertically downward, therefore when string is cut at B then it fall downwards.
At C velocity along horizontally right, so when we cut it at C then it will move to right. But under the action of gravity its path becomes parabola.
At X when we cut it moves tangentially in forward direction. So under of the action of gravity it also follows parabola path.

According to work energy theorem = change in kinetic energy = work done
Kinetic energy of the body = force (displacement)
As kinetic energy is same so both will move with same velocities.

Average work done by a human heart per beat =0.5J
Total work done during 72 beats= 72 =36J
Power = work done/time
=36/60=0.6W

Total linear momentum of the system of two balls is always conserved. While balls are in contact, there may be deformation which means elastic PE which came from part of KE .But they are in contact while collision so according to above case kinetic energy will not conserved.
