Two similar springs \(P\) and \(Q\) have spring constants \(k_P\) and \(k_Q\), such that \(k_P>k_Q\). They are stretched, first by the same amount (case a), then by the same force (case b). The work done by the springs \(W_P\) and \(W_Q\) are related as, in case (a) and case (b), respectively:

1. \(W_P=W_Q;~W_P>W_Q\)
2. \(W_P=W_Q;~W_P=W_Q\)
3. \(W_P>W_Q;~W_P<W_Q\)
4. \(W_P<W_Q;~W_P<W_Q\)

A particle of mass \(m\) is driven by a machine that delivers a constant power of \(k\) watts. If the particle starts from rest, the force on the particle at the time \(t\) is:
1. \( \sqrt{\frac{m k}{2}} t^{-1 / 2} \) 2. \( \sqrt{m k} t^{-1 / 2} \)
3. \( \sqrt{2 m k} t^{-1 / 2} \) 4. \( \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{m k} t^{-1 / 2}\)

Two particles of masses \(m_1\) and \(m_2\) move with initial velocities \(u_1\) and \(u_2\) respectively. On collision, one of the particles gets excited to a higher level, after absorbing energy \(E\). If the final velocities of particles are \(v_1\) and \(v_2\), then we must have:

1. \(m_1^2u_1+m_2^2u_2-E = m_1^2v_1+m_2^2v_2\)
2. \(\frac{1}{2}m_1u_1^2+\frac{1}{2}m_2u_2^2= \frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2+\frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2\)
3. \(\frac{1}{2}m_1u_1^2+\frac{1}{2}m_2u_2^2-E= \frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2+\frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2\)
4. \(\frac{1}{2}m_1^2u_1^2+\frac{1}{2}m_2^2u_2^2+E = \frac{1}{2}m_1^2v_1^2+\frac{1}{2}m_2^2v_2^2\)

A uniform force of \((3 \hat{i} + \hat{j})\) newton acts on a particle of mass \(2~\text{kg}.\) Hence the particle is displaced from the position \((2 \hat{i} + \hat{k})\) metre to the position \((4 \hat{i} + 3 \hat{j} - \hat{k})\) metre. The work done by the force on the particle is:
1. \(6~\text{J}\)
2. \(13~\text{J}\)
3. \(15~\text{J}\)
4. \(9~\text{J}\)
