A bullet fired horizontally with a speed of 400 m s-1. It strikes a wooden block of mass 2 kg hanging vertically with the help of long string. After striking with bullet, block rises a height of 20 cm. If speed with which bullet emerges out from block is 10 λ then find λ. Mass of bullet is 20 g. (take g=10 m s-2)

A particle of mass 2m is projected at an angle of 45º with horizontal with a velocity of 20 2 m/s. After 1 s explosion takes place and the particle is broken into two equal pieces. As a result of explosion one part comes to rest. Find the maximum height attained from the ground by the other part. Take g = 10 m/s2.
