The kinetic energies of two similar cars \(A\) and \(B\) are \(100~\text J\) and \(225~\text J\) respectively. On applying breaks, car \(A\) stops after \(1000~\text m\) and car \(B\) stops after \(1500~\text m.\) If \(F_A\) and \(F_B\) are the forces applied by the breaks on cars \(A\) and \(B,\) respectively, then the ratio \(F_A/F_B\) is:
1. \(\dfrac{1}{3}\) 2. \(\dfrac{1}{2}\)
3. \(\dfrac{3}{2}\) 4. \(\dfrac{2}{3}\)

The object \(A\) has half the kinetic energy as that of the object \(B.\) The object \(B\) has half the mass as that of the object \(A.\) The object \(A\) speeds up by \(1~\text{ms}^{-1}\) and then has the same kinetic energy as that of the object \(B.\) The initial speed of the object \(A\) is:
(Take \(\sqrt2\cong1.4\))
1. \(0.5~\text{ms}^{-1}\) 2. \(1~\text{ms}^{-1}\)
3. \(2.5~\text{ms}^{-1}\) 4. \(4.8~\text{ms}^{-1}\)

An object is moving along the horizontal \(x\text-\)direction with an initial kinetic energy of \(10~\text J.\) It is displaced through \(x=(3\hat{i})~\text{m}\) under the influence of a force \(\vec{{{F}}}=(-2\hat{i}+3\hat{j})~\text N.\) The kinetic energy of the object at the end of the displacement \(x\) is:
1. \(10~\text{J}\) 2. \(16~\text J\)
3. \(4~\text J\) 4. \(6~\text J\)

A bullet from a gun is fired on a rectangular wooden block with velocity \(u\). When bullet travels \(24\) cm through the block along its length horizontally, velocity of bullet becomes \(u/3\). Then it further penetrates into the block in the same direction before coming to rest exactly at the other end of the block. The total length of the block is:
1. \(30\) cm 2. \(27\) cm
3. \(24\) cm 4. \(28\) cm
