Shown in the diagram is a system of two bodies,a block of mass $m$ and a disc of mass $4m$,held in equilibrium. If the string $3$ is burnt,find the acceleration of the disc. Neglect the masses of the pulleys $P$ and $Q$. The coefficient of friction between the block and the horizontal surface is $0.5$ and the friction between the disc and the string is zero. (Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

$A$ block of mass $m$ is lying on a rough inclined plane having an inclination $\alpha = \tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{5})$. The inclined plane is moving horizontally with a constant acceleration of $a = 2 \text{ ms}^{-2}$ as shown in the figure. The minimum value of the coefficient of friction,so that the block remains stationary with respect to the inclined plane,is (Take $g = 10 \text{ ms}^{-2}$):
