x1 + x 2 = l1
Differentiating with respect to time,
x3
we get v1 + v3 = 0
x2
Again differentiating w.r.t. time, x1
a1 + a3 = 0 a1 = a3, a3 = a1 B
A
(x1 x3) + (x2 x3) = l2
Differentiating w.r. to time, v1 + v2 2v3 = 0
Again diff. w.r.t. time, a1 + a2 2a3 = 0
a1 + a2 + 2a1 = 0, 3a1 + a2 = 0
a2 = 3a1, aB = 3aA
10. (B)
Suppose T be the tension in each part of the string passing over the pulley. For equilibrium of the pulley
there is an upward force of 2T acting on the string joining the pulley to the spring. Therefore, reading of
spring balance will be less than 6 kg.

On solving, T = (50/3) N
2T = (100/3) N which is less tan 6 kg.

6g T = 6a (1)
T = 4a (2)
6g = (6 + 4)a
a = (6g/10) = (6 10)/10 = 6 m/s2

Tension is uniformly transmitted if the springs are massless.
18. (C)
Let T be the tension in the string.
The upward force exerted on the clamp = T sin 30o = T/2
Given: (T/2) = 40 N or T = 80 N

20. (C)
In this case, vertical component of the force increases the normal
reaction, i.e.,
R = mg + mg cos = mg(1 + cos )
Hence, block can be pushed along the horizontal surface when
Horizontal component of force > frictional force,
i.e., mg sin mg 1 cos

22. (C)
The frictional force between two surfaces, f s R s mg
where s depends on the nature of surface and their materials.
Thus, frictional force is independent of area of contact of the surfaces.
23. (A)
The body is at rest on the inclined plane, as > tan
force of friction = mg sin 30o = 2 9.8 (1/2) = 9.8 N

24. (D)
When a man walks on a rough surface, it is the frictional force which is responsible for motion, i.e,
required angle between frictional
ctional force and instantaneous velocity is zero.
25. (D)
Frictional force on the block = Mg

It will be causing acceleration a = Mg/M = g
The block slide on the ball till its velocity becomes v given by the equation
v2 = 0 + 2as or v2 = 2gx
x = (v2/2g)

27. (C)
Kinetic friction is constant, hence frictional force will remain same (= 10 N).
28. (D)
For the equilibrium, mBg = mAg
mB = mA mB = 2 0.2 = 0.4 kg

flim = sN = 0.6 100 = 60 N
Now unbalanced force is 50 20 = 30 N < 60 N (flim)
f = 30 N to the left.
