Mass hits inelastically while moving horizontally with some velocity along the common line of centres of the three equal masses each of same mass. Initially mass and are stationary and the spring is unstretched. Then which is incorrect.




Important Questions on Centre of Mass, Momentum and Collisions


A bullet of mass moving vertically upwards instantaneously with a velocity hits the hanging block of mass and gets embedded in it as shown in the figure. The height through which the block rises after the collision (assume sufficient space above block) is:


In the arrangement shown, the pendulum on the left is pulled aside. It is then released and allowed to collide with other pendulums which is at rest. A perfectly inelastic collision occurs and the system rises to a height The ratio of the massesof the pendulum is :

There are a hundred identical sliders equally spaced on a frictionless track as shown in the figure. Initially, all the sliders are at rest. Slider is pushed with velocity towards slider In a collision the sliders stick together. The final velocity of the set of hundred stuck sliders will be:


A particle of mass moves with velocity towards a large wall that is moving with velocity towards the particle as shown. If the particle collides with the wall elastically, the speed of the particle just after the collision is:
