उत्तर
- Let m1 and m2 be the masses of light object A and heavy objects B and v1 and v2 be their respective velocities.
- Since both are imparted with the same linear momentum,
m1v1 = m2v2 - The kinetic energy of the lighter object A
= K.E.A = `1/2 "m"_1"v"_1^2`
The kinetic energy of the heavier object B
= K.E.B = `1/2 "m"_2"v"_2^2`
∴ `("K.E."_"A")/("K.E."_"B") = (1/2 "m"_1"v"_1^2)/(1/2"m"_2"v"_2^2) = (("m"_1"v"_1)^2//"m"_1)/(("m"_2"v"_2)^2//"m"_2)`
∴ `("K.E."_"A")/("K.E."_"B") = "m"_2/"m"_1` ....[∵ m1v1 = m2v2] - As m1 < m2, therefore K.E.A > K.E.B i.e, the lighter body A has more kinetic energy.

Solve the following problem.
The figure below shows a block of mass 35 kg resting on a table. The table is so rough that it offers a self-adjusting resistive force 10% of the weight of the block for its sliding motion along with the table. A 20 kg wt load is attached to the block and is passed over a pulley to hang freely on the left side. On the right side, there is a 2 kg wt pan attached to the block and hung freely. Weights of 1 kg wt each, can be added to the pan. Minimum how many and maximum how many such weights can be added into the pan so that the block does not slide along the table?
