    6.7  (a) False. The total momentum and energy is conserved, not the individual.

     

    (b) False. External forces can change the energy of a body.

     

    (c) False. Only work done by conservative force over a closed loop is zero.

     

    (d) True. In an inelastic collision, the final velocity reduces, resulting in loss of the initial kinetic energy.

(c) When M1 comes in contact with the spring. M1 is retarded by the spring force and M2 is accelerated by the spring force. 
 
a) So spring will continue compress until the blocks moves with the same velocity. 
 
b) As the surfaces are frictionless momentum of the system will conserved. 
 
c) If the spring is massless whole energy of M1 will be imparted and M1 will be rest . 
 
d) collision is elastic even if friction is not involved.

(b) conserving energy between “O” ans ”A”

Ui + Ki = Uf + Kf

0+1/2mv2= mgh + 1/2mv’

( v ' ) 2 2 = v 2 2 = - g h

(v’)2=v2-2gh = v= v 2 - 2 g h ……….1

Let speed after emerging be v1 then

=1/2mv12=1/2[1/2mv’2]

1/2m(v1)2=1/4m(v’)2=1/4m[v2-2gh]

V1= v 2 2 - g h ………….2

From eqn 1 and 2

v ' v 1 = v 2 - 2 g h v 2 - 2 g h / 2 = 2

So v1 = v’/ 2 =v2(v’/2)

v1>v’/2

hence after emerging from the target velocity of the bullet is more than half of its earlier velocity v’

(d) as the velocity of the bullet changes to v’ which is less than v’ hence , path

(b, d) When a man of mass m climbs up the staircases of height L, work done by the gravitational force on the man is mgl work done by internal muscular forces will be mgL as the change in kinetic is almost zero.

Hence total work done =-mgL + mgL=0

As the point of application of the contact forces does not move hence work done by reaction forces will be zero.

(c) m =150g =3/20kg

Time of contact =0.001s

U=126km/h= 126 × 1000 60 × 60 = 35 m s

V= -35m/s

Change in momentum of the ball = m (v-u)= 3 20 - 35 - 35 k g m / s

=21/2

F= dp/dt=- 21 / 2 0.001 N = - 1.05 × 10 4 N

Here – negative sign indicates that force will be opposite to the direction of movement of the ball before hitting.
