PART I 1. 2. A 2kg ball drops on floor from a height of 20 m and rebounds with 20% of the initial speed. Find the impulse received by the ball. A uniform chain of length L and mass M is lying on a smooth table and one-third of its length is hanging vertically down over the edge of the table. If g is acceleration due to gravity, calculate the work required to pull the hanging part on to the table. Find the value of current i in the circuit shown in the figure.

A ball is dropped on a floor from a height of 2.0 m. After the collision it rises upto a height of 1.5m. Assuming that 40% of mechanical energy lost goes as thermal energy into the ball. Calculate the rise in temperature of the ball in the collision. Specific heat capacity of the ball is 800 J/K. (Take g = 10m/s2)

PART II 11. 12. A ball is thrown vertically upward with a velocity 20 m/s. Find the distance covered by the ball is 3 sec. A point source of light B is placed at a distance L in front of the centre of a mirror of width d hung vertically on a wall. A man walks in front of the mirror along a line parallel to the mirror at a distance 2L from it as shown. Find the greatest distance over which he can see the image of the light source in the mirror.
