In the arrangement shown, the $2\, kg$ block is held to keep the system at rest. The string and pulley are ideal. When the $2\, kg$ block is set free, by what amount the tension in the string changes? $[ g = 10\, m/s^2]$
→A slide with a frictionless curved surface, which becomes horizontal at its lower end,, is fixed on the terrace of a building of height $3 h$ from the ground, as shown in the figure. A spherical ball of mass $\mathrm{m}$ is released on the slide from rest at a height $h$ from the top of the terrace. The ball leaves the slide with a velocity $\vec{u}_0=u_0 \hat{x}$ and falls on the ground at a distance $d$ from the building making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. It bounces off with a velocity $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}}$ and reaches a maximum height $h_l$. The acceleration due to gravity is $g$ and the coefficient of restitution of the ground is $1 / \sqrt{3}$. Which of the following statement($s$) is(are) correct?
