A cubical box of wine has a small spout located in one of the bottom corners. When the box is full and placed on a level surface, opening the spout results in a flow of wine with a initial speed of $v_0$ (see figure). When the box is half empty, someone tilts it at $45^o $ so that the spout is at the lowest point (see figure). When the spout is opened the wine will flow out with a speed of
$A$ sphere of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is attached by a light rod of length $l$ to $a$ point $P$. The sphere rolls without slipping on a circular track as shown. It is released from the horizontal position. the angular momentum of the system about $P$ when the rod becomes vertical is :
Two bodies having same mass $40\, kg$ are moving in opposite directions, one with a velocity of $10$$m/s$ and the other with $7\,m/s.$ If they collide and move as one body, the velocity of the combination is ........ $m/s$
Two discs of moments of inertia $I_1$ and $I_2$ about their respective axes (normal to  the disc and passing through the centre), and rotating with angular speed $\omega _1$ and $\omega _2$ are  brought into contact face to face with their axes of rotation coincident. What is the  loss in kinetic energy of the system in the process ?
