QU1:A particle is projected from a point  P(2,0,0)  with a velocity 10m/s making an angle 45 degrees with the horizontal . The plane of projectile motion
through a horizontal  line PQ which  makes an angle of 37 degrees with the +ve X-axis, XY-plane is horizontal .The coordinates of the point where
the particle will strike the line PQ is (taking g=10m/(sec)2):-
(a) (10,6,0)
(b) (8,6,0)
(c) (10,8,0)
(d) (6,10,0)
QU2:Is it possible to have a collision in which all of the K.E. is lost ?
QU3:Explain how linear momentum is conserved when a ball bounces from floor.
QU4:Do you know how to determine whether a force is conservative or not from vector representqtion of a force. For example I give you this question :-
         e.g.A force F=5zi+xyj+x2zk is :-
               a)is conservative
               b)is non-conservative
               c)is conservative along some paths
               d)may be conservative or non conservative depending upon x,y,z
              [NOTE: Here i,j,k stands for i cap,,j cap and k cap respectively and there is an arrow (representing vector) over F.Also, x2 means x to the
               power 2 here.]

answer is b force is non conservative
 
if my answer is correct then the explanation is as follows
 
choose two points A(x1i+y1j+z1k)  and b(x2i+ y2j+ z2k)
 
sum the work done over the two diff paths i.e f.OA + f.AB 
u will find that it is not equal to f.OB
so the force is non conservative
 
also to your first question u require a point through which the line passes
otherwise u cannot solve the qn
 
plz reply indicating if my answer is right or not

the first one's answer is (8,6,0)
and there can be a collision in which all KE is lost..if the whole ke goes to changin the shape of the other body but the body doesn;t aquire velocity.....
and the momentum in bouncing back of the ball is conserved...bescause since mass of earth is very very very large compared to tht of the ball...so it can be considered infinity.....and so velocity of earth will be zero..
the last one didn;t get it/..

What i wud lyk to be is unique....Govind

How can total K.E. of a system be lost????
This is impossible!!! Here's the reason..
 
According to Law Of Conservation Of Momentum,
Initial momentum = Final momentum
So, mi x vi = mf x vf
 
=> vf = mi x vi
           ----------
              mf
 
vf can only be zero iff. mf is infinite.
So, net minimum K.E. is 1/2 mf vf(square)

Experts only answer one question at a time, please let us know which question needs to be answered first and post other queries again.

take a case of a plastic collision between a very light moving body and a very heavy stationary one(m2>>>m1)
 
in such cases total kinetci energy of the moving body is transferred to the heavy body and kinetic energy is lost
