A truck of mass M is moved under a force F. If the truck is then loaded with
an object equal to the mass of the truck and the driving force is halved,
then how does the acceleration change?

Suppose a ball of mass m is thrown vertically upward with an initial speed v, its
speed decreases continuously till it becomes zero. Thereafter, the ball begins to
fall downward and attains the speed v again before striking the ground. It
implies that the magnitude of initial and final momentums of the ball are same.
Yet, it is not an example of conservation of momentum. Explain why ?

Two balls of the same size but of different materials, rubber and iron are
kept on the smooth floor of a moving train. The brakes are applied suddenly
to stop the train. Will the balls start rolling? If so, in which direction? Will
they move with the same speed? Give reasons for your answer.
