Answer:

Option (e)

Explanation:

If a mass attached to a spring is stretched and released, it follows a simple harmonic motion.

In simple harmonic motion, velocity of the mass will be maximum, kinetic energy is maximum and acceleration is 0 at equilibrium position (at 0 position).

At position +A, mass will have the minimum kinetic energy, zero velocity and maximum acceleration.

Therefore, Option (e) will be the answer.

Two 2.0kg bodies A and B collide The velocities before the collision are U1=15i+30j and U2=-10j+5.0j After the collision V1=-5.0

Use the law of conservation of momentum. Since the momentum is a linear measure, we can treat each of the dimension separately:

i-direction:

$m_1u_{1i}+m_2u_{2i}=m_1v_{1i}+m_2v_{2i}\\v_{2i} = \frac{m_1u_{1i}+m_2u_{2i}-m_1v_{1i}}{m_2}=\frac{(2\cdot 15-2\cdot10+2\cdot5)kg\frac{m}{s}}{2kg}=10\frac{m}{s}$

j-direction:

$m_1u_{1j}+m_2u_{2j}=m_1v_{1j}+m_2v_{2j}\\v_{2j} = \frac{m_1u_{1j}+m_2u_{2j}-m_1v_{1j}}{m_2}=\frac{(2\cdot 30+2\cdot5-2\cdot20)kg\frac{m}{s}}{2kg}=15\frac{m}{s}$
