A ball of mass 0.5 kg is thrown up with initial speed 16 ms^\(-\)1 and reaches maximum height of 9 m. How much energy is dissipated by air drag acting on the ball during the ascent?

A time dependent force F = (8t) acts on a particle of mass 2 kg. If the particle starts from rest, the work done by the force during the first 1s will be

The work done by a force acting on a body is as shown in the following graph. The total work done in covering an initial distance of 40 m is

A force F = a + bx acts on a particle in the x-direction where a and b are constants. The work done by this force during a displacement from x = 0 to x = d is

The bob of a pendulum of length 2 m lies at P, when it reaches Q, it losses 10% of its total energy due to air resistance.

The velocity of bob at Q is

A machine gun fires 300 bullets per min if the mass of each bullet is 10 g and the velocity of the bullets is 600 ms^\(-\)1, the power (in kW) of the gun is

The potential energy for a force field \(\mathbf{F}\) is given by \(u(x, y)=\cos (x+y)\). The force acting on a particle at position given by co-ordinates \((0, \pi / 6)\) is

A block of mass 10 kg slides down a rough slope which is inclined at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ to the horizontal. The coefficient of sliding friction is 0.30 . When the block has slide 5 m , the work done on the block by the force of friction is nearly

A body is projected with a speed $u \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$ at an angle $\beta$ with the horizontal. The kinetic energy at the highest point is $(3 / 4)$ th of the initial kinetic energy. The value of $\beta$ is

A string of length $L$ and force constant $k$ is stretched to obtain extension $l$. It is further stretched to obtain extension $l_1$. The work done in second stretching is
