Block $A$ of mass $2 \, kg$ is placed over block $B$ of mass $8 \, kg$. The combination is placed over a rough horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction between block $B$ and the floor is $0.5$. The coefficient of friction between blocks $A$ and $B$ is $0.4$. A horizontal force of $10 \, N$ is applied on block $B$. Find the force of friction between blocks $A$ and $B$. (Take $g = 10 \, ms^{-2}$)

$A$ $40 \,kg$ slab rests on a frictionless floor as shown in the figure. $A$ $10 \,kg$ block rests on the top of the slab. The static coefficient of friction between the block and slab is $0.60$ while the kinetic friction is $0.40$. The $10 \,kg$ block is acted upon by a horizontal force $100 \,N$. If $g = 9.8 \,m/s^2$,the resulting acceleration of the slab will be ........ $m/s^2$.

$A$ pen of mass $m$ is lying on a piece of paper of mass $M$ placed on a rough table. If the coefficients of friction between the pen and paper and the paper and the table are $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$,respectively,then the minimum horizontal force with which the paper has to be pulled for the pen to start slipping is given by:

The rear side of a truck is open and a box of $40 \;kg$ mass is placed $5 \;m$ away from the open end as shown in Figure. The coefficient of friction between the box and the surface below it is $0.15$. On a straight road,the truck starts from rest and accelerates with $2 \;m s^{-2}$. At what distance from the starting point does the box fall off the truck? (Ignore the size of the box).
