Important Questions on Centre of Mass, Momentum and Collisions

A small ring of mass is attached at an end of a light string the other end of which is tied to a block of mass The ring is free to move on a fixed smooth horizontal rod as shown. Find tension in the string when it becomes vertical.

A symmetric block of mass with a groove of hemispherical shape of radius rests on a smooth horizontal surface in contact with the wall as shown in the figure. A small block of mass slides without friction from the initial position. Find the maximum velocity of the block




A body of mass moves along the with a velocity A second body of mass moves along the y-axis with a velocity of They collide at the origin and stick together.
If the amount of heat liberated in the collision is , then find ?

Two blocks initially at rest having masses are connected by spring of spring constant (as shown in the figure). The block of mass is pulled by a constant force and the other block is pulled by a constant force Find the maximum elongation of the spring (the spring is initially relaxed) Assuming
