The force acts perpendicular to the velocity so there is no work done on particle.
So kinetic energy will not change.
As force acts on the particle so there is change in its momentum

Let mass of the circular disc = M
So mass of the removed disc = M/4
So mass of the remaining desc = 3M/4
Assume that centre of mass of remaining disc is at a distance x from centre
So, (3M/4).x = (M/4).R
=> x = R/3 = αR
=> α = 1/3

The direction of the force that acts on the rotating particle
passes thru the center. So there is no torque acting on the particle.
As no torque acts on the particle so angular momentum is constant.

Assume that spring is compressed by distance=x
Kinetic energy of the block = (1/2)×2×42 = 16
While compressing the spring, energy loss due to friction = 10x
Energy transferred to spring due to block = (1/2)×10000×x2
(1/2)×10000×x2 + 10x = 16 ...................(i)
By solving equation (i), x = 5.5 (approx.)

Kinetic energy of the particle at the beginning : K = (1/2)mv2
Horizontal velocity of the particle = vcos60°
Kinetic energy of the particle at the beginning : K = (1/2)mv2
Kinetic energy of the particle at the hightest point = (1/2)m(vcos60°)2
Kinetic energy of the particle at the hightest point = (1/2)mv2cos260° = K/4

As per the first law of thermodynamics :
ΔQ = ΔU + ΔW
For the route iaf, 50 = 20 + ΔU
ΔU = 30
For the route ibf, 36 = ΔW + 30
ΔW = 6
