$A$ wedge $Y$ with mass of $10 \text{ kg}$ has all frictionless surfaces, and the inclined surface makes an angle of $37^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. $A$ block $X$ with mass $2 \text{ kg}$ is placed at the highest point of the wedge as shown in the figure and is at rest. At $t=0$, the wedge $Y$ is pulled toward the right with a constant force $f$ of $24 \text{ N}$. Taking the block $X$ at rest at $t=0$, the time taken by it to slide down $8.8 \text{ m}$ on the slope, while $Y$ is in motion, is . . . . . . s. (Take $\tan(37^{\circ}) = 3/4$ and $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$)

$A$ $60\, kg$ man stands on a spring scale in a lift. At some instant,he finds the scale reading has changed from $60\, kg$ to $50\, kg$ for a while and then comes back to the original mark. What should we conclude?

Three weights $W, 2W$,and $3W$ are connected to identical springs suspended from a rigid horizontal rod. The assembly of the rod and the weights falls freely under gravity. The positions of the weights from the rod are such that:
