What is the minimum velocity with which a body of mass m must enter a vertical loop of radius R so that it can complete the loop?.

A wind-powered generator converts wind energy into electric energy. Assume that the generator converts a fixed fraction of the wind energy intercepted by its blades into electrical energy. For wind speed v, the electrical power output will be proportional to ______

Two equal masses m₁ and m₂ are moving along the same straight line with velocities 5 ms^-1 and -9 ms^-1 respectively. If the collision is elastic, then calculate the velocities after the collision of m₁ and m₂, respectively.

Arrive at an expression for power and velocity. Give some examples for the same.

A ball with a velocity of 5 ms⁻¹ impinges at an angle of 60˚ with the vertical on a smooth horizontal plane. If the coefficient of restitution is 0.5, find the velocity and direction after the impact.
