Question
A ball is suspended from the top of a cart by a light string of length1.0 m. The cart and the ball are initially moving to the right at constant speed V, as shown in figure I. The cart comes to rest after colliding and sticking to a fixed bumper, as in figure II. The suspended ball swings through a maximum angle 60°.The initial speed V is (take g = 10 m/s2) (neglect friction)
The correct answer is:
As string does no work on the ball, energy conservation can be applied.

A block of mass m and length l is kept at rest on a rough horizontal ground of friction coefficient mk . A man of mass m is standing at the right end. Now the man starts walking towards left and reaches the left end within time ‘t’. During this time, the displacement of the block is : (Assume the pressing force between the block and the ground remains constant and its value is same as it was initially. Also as sume that the block slides during the entire time (t))
