$A$ force of $36 \, \text{dyne}$ acts on a body placed on an inclined plane making an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. If the mass of the body is $18 \, \text{g}$,what is the acceleration of the body in the horizontal direction?

Three forces $F_1=10\,N$,$F_2=8\,N$,and $F_3=6\,N$ are acting on a particle of mass $5\,kg$. The forces $F_2$ and $F_3$ are applied perpendicular to each other such that the particle remains at rest. If the force $F_1$ is removed,then the acceleration of the particle is $......\,m/s^2$.

One end of a spring of force constant $150 \text{ dyne cm}^{-1}$ is connected to a block of mass $0.2 \text{ kg}$ kept on a rough horizontal surface of coefficient of friction $0.3$. The other end of the spring is connected to a rigid support as shown in the figure and the spring is initially undeformed. The maximum velocity $v$ that can be given to the block so that it travels only in one direction is . . . . . . $\text{ms}^{-1}$. (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \text{ ms}^{-2}$)
