A particle is acted upon by a force of constant magnitude which is always perpendicular to the velocity of the particle, the motion of the particle takes place in a plane. It follows that 

(1) Its velocity is constant

(2) Its acceleration is constant

(3) Its kinetic energy is constant

(4) It moves in a straight line

Two bodies of masses 1 kg and 5 kg are dropped gently from the top of a tower. At a point 20 cm from the ground, both the bodies will have the same

(2) Kinetic energy

(3) Velocity

(4) Total energy

A cord is used to lower vertically a block of mass M by a distance d with constant downward acceleration $\frac{g}{4}$. Work done by the cord on the block is

(2) $3Mg\frac{d}{4}$

(3) $-3Mg\frac{d}{4}$

(4) Mgd 

A particle moves in a straight line with retardation proportional to its displacement. Its loss of kinetic energy for any displacement x is proportional to- 

(1) x²

(2) e^x

(3) x

(4) log_e x

The potential energy of a body is given by, U = A – Bx² (Where x is the displacement). The magnitude of force acting on the particle is

A block of mass m initially at rest is dropped from a height h on to a spring of force constant k. The maximum compression in the spring is x then-

(1) $mgh=\frac{1}{2}k{x}^2$

(2) $mg(h+x)=\frac{1}{2}k{x}^2$

(3) $mgh=\frac{1}{2}k{(x+h)}^2$

(4) $mg(h+x)=\frac{1}{2}k{(x+h)}^2$
