Questions 1 to 3 are based on the following experiment A marble bounces down stairs in regular manner, hitting each step

at identical points and bouncing the same height H above each step. The stair height and it depth are equal and denoted by h as shown in the figure. The coefficient of restitution for each impact is e. a
H

A small dis$ of mass M = 2.% $g is connected with two identical small dis$s each of mass m = 1.% $g with the help of two light ine&tensible threads each of lengths l = 5% cm. 'nitially the system rests on a frictionless hori ontal floor with centers of the dis$s in a straight line and the thread straight. (ow the middle dis$ is given a sharp impulse to acquire a hori ontal velocity u = 2 m)s perpendicular to the threads.

*ind tension in the threads immediately before the end dis$s collide. 5. +otor of a four wheel drive toy car delivers constant power 5% , to its wheels. +ass of the car is 1.% $g and coefficient of friction between the floor and tiers is %.5. -alculate time required to accelerate the car from rest to speed 2% m)s on a hori ontal floor. *or simplicity, ignore masses of the wheels and the air resistance. .n a table are placed two identical cups. .ne is filled with hot mil$ at temperature T1 and the other one is empty. 't is desired to cool the mil$ to a desired temperature T2. To quic$en cooling process you can adopt either of the following methods. (a) (b) (c) *irst pour the whole mil$ in the empty cup and weight till temperature falls to T2. *irst wait for some time and then pour the whole mil$ in the empty cup and then wait till temperature falls to T2. *irst wait and then pour the mil$ in the empty cup at such an instant that immediately after pouring mil$ temperature of the mil$ becomes T2.

'f heat transfer from mil$ to cup occurs in negligible time, which one of the above strategies would you prefer/
