A ball moving vertically downward with a speed of collides with a platform. The platform moves with a velocity of in downward direction. If find the speed (in ) of the ball just after collision.


Important Questions on Impulse and Collision
A body of mass moving with velocity makes an elastic one dimensional collision with an identical stationary body. They are in contact for brief time Their force of interaction increases from zero to linearly in time and decreases linearly to zero in further time as shown in figure. Find the magnitude of force in newton.

A ball dropped from a height reaches a height after bouncing twice from identical plates. Plate A rests directly on hard ground, while plate rests on a foam -rubber mat. Determine.
(ii) the height of the ball's first bounce.



A stream of glass beads, each with a mass of gram, comes out of a horizontal tube at a rate of per second. The beads fall a distance of to a balance pan and bounce back to their original height. How much mass (in ) must be placed in the other pan of the balance to keep the pointer at zero?

A sphere is connected to a fixed point by an inextensible string of length . The sphere is resting on a horizontal surface at a distance from . The sphere is given a vertical velocity , and it moves freely till it reaches point , when string becomes taut. Find the maximum allowable velocity (in m/s), if impulse of tension in string is not to exceed .

A coordinate axis system taking -axis as horizontal smooth floor is shown in figure. Two small balls of masses and attached with a string are released from some heights on -axis as shown in figure. The balls may collide head on or obliquely. After a certain time mass is at while mass is above the axis and the string is taut. The balls always remain in plane. Find the length of string (in )

A boy is playing carom board. Strikers is moving with velocity and queen is at rest. See angle in the figure. Mass of and are and Friction is absent and coefficient of resistution is If after collision moves along direction and moves along perpendicular to Find the value of coefficient of restitution.

Mass of a particle and a hemisphere are and respectively. Particle hits the hemisphere (at rest on smooth surface) with a horizontal velocity and rebounds in vertical direction after collision (neglect friction), if the value of (in degree) (collision is elastic):
