Block $A$ weighing $100 \, kg$ rests on a block $B$ and is tied with a horizontal string to the wall at $C$. Block $B$ weighs $200 \, kg$. The coefficient of friction between $A$ and $B$ is $0.25$ and between $B$ and the surface is $1/3$. The horizontal force $P$ necessary to move the block $B$ should be ........ $N$ $(g = 10 \, m/s^2)$.

Block $A$ of mass $3 \ kg$ rests on another block $B$ of mass $7 \ kg$. The coefficient of friction between $A$ and $B$ is $0.4$, while the coefficient of friction between $B$ and the horizontal floor on which $B$ rests is $0.55$. Find the force of friction between $A$ and $B$ when a horizontal force of $50 \ N$ is applied on block $B$. (Use $g = 10 \ m/s^2$) (in $N$)

Initially,the whole system is at rest. Now,a force of $62 \ N$ is applied on block $B$ as shown in the figure. Find the time taken by block $A$ to fall off block $B$.

What is the maximum force $F$ that can be applied on block $m_1$,so that both $m_1$ and $m_2$ will move together? There is no friction between $m_1$ and the horizontal table. The coefficient of friction between $m_1$ and $m_2$ is $\mu$.

$A$ block of mass $m$ is placed on the top of another block of mass $M$ as shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between them is $\mu$. What is the maximum acceleration with which the block $M$ may move so that $m$ also moves along with it?

As shown in the figure, block $m$ and wedge $M$ move together with a horizontal acceleration of $20\, m/s^2$. Given $m = 1\, kg$, $\mu = 0.6$ (between $m$ and $M$) and $g = 10\, m/s^2$. Choose the $\text{CORRECT}$ alternative:
