Two blocks of masses in the ratio $m:n$ are connected by a light inextensible string passing over a frictionless fixed pulley. If the system of the blocks is released from rest, then the acceleration of the centre of mass of the system of the blocks is ($g$ = acceleration due to gravity).

$A$ truck of mass $M$ is at rest on a frictionless road when a monkey of mass $m$ starts moving on the truck in the forward direction. If the truck recoils with a speed $v$ backward on the road,with what velocity is the monkey moving with respect to the truck?

$A$ block of mass $m$ is on an inclined plane of angle $\theta$. The coefficient of friction between the block and the plane is $\mu$ and $\tan \theta > \mu$. The block is held stationary by applying a force $P$ parallel to the plane. The direction of force pointing up the plane is taken to be positive. As $P$ is varied from $P_1 = mg(\sin \theta - \mu \cos \theta)$ to $P_2 = mg(\sin \theta + \mu \cos \theta)$,the frictional force $f$ versus $P$ graph will look like:

$A$ helicopter of mass $2000 \,kg$ rises with a vertical acceleration of $15 \,m s^{-2}$. The total mass of the crew and passengers is $500 \,kg$. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the following (take $g = 10 \,m s^{-2}$):
$(a)$ Force on the floor of the helicopter by the crew and passengers.
$(b)$ Action of the rotor of the helicopter on the surrounding air.
$(c)$ Force on the helicopter due to the surrounding air.
