    $1 \, \text{cm/s}^2$
  • B
    $2 \, \text{cm/s}^2$
  • C

Three blocks with masses $m$,$2m$,and $3m$ are connected by strings,as shown in the figure. After an upward force $F$ is applied on block $m$,the masses move upward at a constant speed $v$. What is the net force on the block of mass $2m$? ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity)

Imagine the situation in which the given arrangement is placed inside a trolley that can move only in the horizontal direction,as shown in the figure. If the trolley is accelerated horizontally along the positive $x$-axis with $a_0$,and if $a_{min}$ and $a_{max}$ are the minimum and maximum values of $a_0$ for which the blocks remain stationary with respect to the surface,then identify the correct statements.

Shown in the diagram is a system of two bodies,a block of mass $m$ and a disc of mass $4m$,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 coefficient of friction between the block and the horizontal surface is $0.5$ and the friction between the disc and the string is zero. (Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

In the figure shown,all surfaces are frictionless,and the mass of the block is $m = 1\, kg$. The block and wedge are held initially at rest. Now,the wedge is given a horizontal acceleration of $a = 10\, m/s^2$ by applying a force on the wedge,such that the block does not slip on the wedge. Calculate the work done by the normal force in the ground frame on the block in $\sqrt{3}$ seconds. (Assume $\tan \theta = a/g = 1$,so $\theta = 45^\circ$)
