Two block A and B each of mass m are connected by a massless spring of natural length L and spring constant k. The blocks are initially resting on a smooth horizontal floor with the spring at its natural length as shown in fig. A third identical block C, also of mass m, moving on the floor with a speed v along the line joining A and B, and collides elastically with A. Then

( A ) Kinetic energy of A-B system , at maximum compression of spring is zero
 
Above statement is true becuase all the kinetic energy of A-B system is converted to get maximum
potential energy at maximum compression of spring .
 
Hence , when the spring is at maximum compression , kinetic energy of A-B system is zero.
--------------------------------------
 
(B) Kinetic energy of A-B system at maximum compression of spring is  [ (1/4) m v2 }
 
Above statement is false as per the explanation given in part (A)
 
---------------------------------------------------
 
(C) Maximum compression is  begin mathsize 14px style v square root of m over k end root end style
Above statement is false and explanation is given below
 
As shown in figure , when the spring is compressed , equal decrease of length dx occurs at both ends .
 
hence distance of compression is ( 2 dx )
 
if distance of compression is maximum, then
 
(1/2) k ( 2 dx )2 = (1/2) m v2
 
where k is spring constant , m is mass of block that compress the spring by its maximum speed v
 
begin mathsize 14px style d x space equals space v space square root of fraction numerator m over denominator 2 space k end fraction end root space end style
----------------------------------------------------------------
(D) Maximum compression is  begin mathsize 14px style v square root of fraction numerator m over denominator 2 k end fraction end root end style
Above statement is true and explanation is as given in part (C)

A uniform rod of length L and mass M has been placed on a rough horizontal surface. The force F applied on the rod is such that the rod is such that the rod is just in the state of rest. If the coefficient of friction varies according to the relation μ=KX, where K is a positive constant. Suppose friction is present only from X=0 to X=L. If the rod moves in the direction of application of force then the total heat generated in the time in which the rod crosses this region, is equal to

A wooden block weighing 80 N rests on a rough horizontal plane, the coefficient of friction between the two being µ=0.4. If a bullet weighing 0.4 N is fired horizontally in to the block with muzzle velocity v= 500 m/s, how far will the block be displaced from its initial position? Assume that the bullet remains inside the block.
