3. The velocity of a moving trolley of mass 1kg is 3m/s .A block of mass 0.5kg is placed vertically on the trolley.
Immediately after the collision, the speed of the trolley and block is 2m/s. show whether the momentum is conserved in
collision .
4. A concrete slab of mass 400kg accelerate down a concrete slope inclined at 35 0 . The µkinetic between the slab and slope
is 0.6 . Determine the acceleration of the block.
5.By Newton’s second law of motion, a net force of 1N acting on a mass of 1kg produces an acceleration of 1m/s 2 .If
both the force and the mass are doubled , the acceleration will be:
A) twice the original B) half of the original C) four times the original D) the same as the original
6.A body with a mass of 1kg travels East wards at a velocity of 5m/s. It collides head on with a body of mass 2kg
travelling at a velocity of 10m/s in opposite direction . The two bodies unite after collision and they make East wards
together . What is the velocity of two bodies after collision ?

bag is lifted at a constant speed. What is the work done on the bag?
14.Fido, a small dog that weighs 100.N, sees a bird in a tree and climbs straight up, at constant velocity, with
an average power of 640.W. If it takes Fido 8.50sec to reach the branch upon which the bird is perched, how
high is that branch?
18. An 8.0 kg ball travelling at 4 m/s collides head on with a 3 kg ball travelling at 14 m/s. The balls bounce
off each other and travel back the way they came. The 8.0 kg ball travels away at2 m/s. Calculate:
a) the velocity of the 3 kg ball after the collision
b) the kinetic energy before and after the collision.
c) State whether or not the collision is elastic and explain your answer.
19.300 kg of water are lifted 10 m vertically in 5s. Show that the work done is 30 kJ and that the
power is 6 kW.
20.A spring is used to launch a ball vertically into the air. The spring has a spring constant of 200 N/m and is
compressed by 5 cm. A ball of mass 10 g is placed just above the spring. Calculate:
a) the energy stored in the spring
b) assuming the spring transfers all of its energy to the ball, the velocity of the ball just as it launches
c) the height reached by the ball assuming all the Ek is converted into GPE.
