The blocks are given velocities in the directions shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between the two blocks is $\mu = 0.5$. Take $g = 10\ m/s^2$. (Consider that the $4\ kg$ block does not fall off the $2\ kg$ block).
Consider the following statements:
$(i)$ Time when relative motion between them stops is $1.4\ s$.
$(ii)$ Time when relative motion between them stops is $1.2\ s$.
$(iii)$ The common velocity of the two blocks is $8\ m/s$,towards the right.
$(iv)$ The displacement of the $4\ kg$ block when relative motion stops is $10.8\ m$.
Which of the statements is/are correct?
