Consider a body of mass $3\,kg$ at rest on a smooth horizontal table. This body is connected by a light string, which passes over a smooth pulley at the edge of the table, to another body of mass $2\, kg$ hanging freely. This $2\, kg$ mass is released from rest. Now consider the following statements :-
→$(A)$ The masses remains at rest
$(B)$ The $3\,kg$ mass moves uniformly while $2\, kg$ mass moves with acceleration $\frac{2}{5}\, g \,m/s^2$
$(C)$ Both bodies move with acceleration $\frac{2}{5} \,g \,m/s^2$
$(D)$ The tension in the string near the first body is more than that near the second body
$(E)$ The tension in the string is $\frac{6g}{5}\, N $
Then the correct statements are
Shown in the diagram is a system of two bodies, a block of mass $m$ and a disc of mass $4\ m$ , held in equilibrium. If the string $3$ is burnt, find the acceleration of the disc. Neglect the masses of the pulleys $P$ and $Q$ . The co-efficient of friction between the block and horizontal surface is $0.5$ and friction between disc and string is zero ........ $m/s^2$

→A particle is moved from $(0, 0)$ to $(a, a)$ under a force $F = (3\hat i + 4\hat j)$ from two paths. Path $1$ is $OP$ and path $2$ is $OQP$ . Let $W_1$ and $W_2$ be the work done by this force in these two paths respectively. Then
→A bullet of mass $0.01\, kg$ and travelling at a speed of $500\, m/s$ strikes and passes horizontally through a block of mass $2\,kg$ which is suspended by string of string of length $5\,m$. The centre of gravity of the block is found to raise a vertical distance of $0.1\,m$. What is the speed of the bullet after it emerges from the block .......... $\mathrm{m}/ \mathrm{s}$ $[g = 9.8\,m/s^2]$ (time of passing of bullet is negligible)
