The relation between the displacement x and the time t for a body of mass 2 kg moving under the action of a force is given by x=t3/3, where x is in metre and t in second. The work done (in joule) by the body in the first two seconds is:

A ball of mass 0.2 kg is thrown vertically upward by applying a force by hand. If the hand moves 0.2 m while applying the force and the ball goes up to 2 m height further, find the magnitude of the force. Consider g=10 m s-2.

A ball of mass 0.2 kg rests on a vertical post of height  5 m. A bullet of mass 0.01 kg, travelling with velocity v m/s in a horizontal direction, hits the centre of the ball. After the collision, the ball and bullet travel independently. The ball hits the ground at a distance of 20 m and the bullet at a distance of 100 m from the foot of the post. The initial velocity of the bullet is:
