A small body slips, subject to the force of friction, from point $A$ to point $B$ along two curved surfaces of equal radius, first along route $1,$ then along route $2$. Friction does not depend on the speed and the coefficient of friction on both routes is the same. In which case will the body’s speed at $B$ be greater?

Normal in case $2>$ Normal in case $1$ Friction $\propto$ Normal

$\mathrm{mg} \cos \theta-\mathrm{N}_{1}=\frac{\mathrm{mu}^{2}}{\mathrm{r}}$

$\mathrm{N}_{1}=\mathrm{mg} \cos \theta-\frac{\mathrm{mv}^{2}}{\mathrm{r}}$

$\mathrm{N}_{2}-\mathrm{mg} \cos \theta=\frac{\mathrm{mu}^{2}}{\mathrm{r}}$

    Two balls of masses ${m_1}$ and ${m_2}$ are separated from each other by a powder charge placed between them. The whole system is at rest on the ground. Suddenly the powder charge explodes and masses are pushed apart. The mass ${m_1}$ travels a distance ${s_1}$ and stops. If the coefficients of friction between the balls and ground are same, the mass ${m_2}$ stops after travelling the distance
