Work energy and power

1.A bullet weighing 10 g is fired with a velocity of 800ms−1. After passing through a mud wall 1 m
thick, its velocity decreases to 100ms−1. Find the average resistance offered by the mud wall.
2. The potential energy function for a particle executing linear simple harmonic motion is given
by V(x)=kx2/2, where k is the force constant of the oscillator. 
For k=0.5Nm−1, the graph of V(x) versus x is shown in Fig. Show that a particle of total energy 1 J
moving under this potential must turn back when it reaches x=±2m.

3. A light and a heavy body have equal momenta. Which one has greater kinetic energy? Using
equation justify
4.prove work energy theorem for variable force

5. If the potential energy of the spring is V and upon stretching it by 2 cm then its
potential energy when it is stretched by 10 cm will be?

6. Work is related to force and displacement over which it acts.  a) A man tries to pull a rigid wall for
a long time but
fails to displace it. What is the external work done by him?
b) Suggest two conditions for the work done by a force to be zero.
c) A body of mass 1 kg travels in a straight line with a velocity kx3/2 where k = 5 SI units.
Calculate the work done by the net force to displace from x = 0 to x = 2m.
7.
A ball moves along a circle under the influence of centripetal force. 
a) What is the work done by the centripetal force on the ball ?
b) An arrow shot from a bow has kinetic energy
How does it get this kinetic energy ?
c) Show that the total mechanical energy of a freely falling body is conserved.
8. Ramesh lifts a body of mass ‘m’ to a height ‘h’ near the surface of the earth in a time ‘t’
a) Draw the force-displacement graph.
b) If ‘A’ is the area of the graph, what quantity does (A/T) indicate?
9. According to the work-energy theorem, work done by a force on a body is equal to
change in its kinetic energy. 
A lorry and a car moving with the same kinetic energy are stopped by applying brakes which
provides the same retardation. Which of them will come to a rest in a shorter distance?
Explain
10. Below figure represents two point masses, m1 and m2 approaching each other with
speeds u1 and u2. Let them undergo one-dimensional collision and retrieve each other with

velocities v1 and v2. 

Show that (u1 – u2) = – (v1 – v2), ie, after collision, their relative velocities are equal.
