    $t = 25/3 \, s$
  • B
    $t = 50/3 \, s$
  • C
    $t = 100/3 \, s$

$A$ mass of $2 \, kg$ is suspended with a thread $AB$ as shown in the figure. $A$ thread $CD$ of the same type is attached to the other end of the $2 \, kg$ mass. The lower thread is pulled gradually,harder and harder in the downward direction,so as to apply force on $AB$. Which of the threads will break and why?

$A$ block of mass $M$ is placed on a horizontal surface and it is tied with an inextensible string to a block of mass $m$,as shown in the figure. $A$ block of mass $m_0$ is also placed on $M$. If $\mu < \mu_{min}$ (the minimum friction required to keep the block $m$ stationary),then the downward acceleration of $m$ is:
