$A$ man pulls a block heavier than himself with a light horizontal rope. The coefficient of friction is the same between the man and the ground,and between the block and the ground.

  • A
    The block will not move unless the man also moves.
  • B
    The man can move even when the block is stationary.
  • C
    If both move,the acceleration of the man is greater than the acceleration of the block.
  • D
    All of the above.

Two balls of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are separated from each other by a powder charge placed between them. The whole system is at rest on the ground. Suddenly,the powder charge explodes and the masses are pushed apart. The mass $m_1$ travels a distance $s_1$ and stops. If the coefficients of friction between the balls and the ground are the same,the mass $m_2$ stops after travelling the distance:

Masses of $10\, kg$ and $20\, kg$ are connected by a massless spring as shown in the figure. $A$ force of $200\, N$ acts on the $20\, kg$ mass. At the instant shown,the $10\, kg$ mass has an acceleration of $12\, m/s^2$. What is the acceleration of the $20\, kg$ mass in $m/s^2$?

$A$ spring-block system is placed on a rough horizontal floor. The block is pulled towards the right to give the spring an elongation $x_0$ such that $\frac{\mu mg}{K} < x_0 < \frac{2\mu mg}{K}$,and then released. Which of the following statements is correct?

An infinite number of masses are placed on a frictionless table and they are connected via massless strings. Their masses follow the sequence $m, \frac{m}{2}, \frac{m}{6}, \ldots, \frac{m}{n!}, \ldots$ and they are further connected to a mass $m$ that hangs over a massless pulley. The acceleration of the hanging mass is
