This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2$. Of the four choices given after the Statements,choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement $1$: If you push on a cart being pulled by a horse so that it does not move,the cart pushes you back with an equal and opposite force.
Statement $2$: The cart does not move because the forces described in Statement $1$ cancel each other.

  • A
    Statement $1$ is true,Statement $2$ is true,Statement $2$ is the correct explanation of Statement $1$.
  • B
    Statement $1$ is false,Statement $2$ is true.
  • C
    Statement $1$ is true,Statement $2$ is false.
  • D
    Statement $1$ is true,Statement $2$ is true,Statement $2$ is not the correct explanation of Statement $1$.

$A$ body of mass $2 \ kg$ is acted upon by two forces each of magnitude $1 \ N$ and inclined at $60^{\circ}$ with each other. The acceleration of the body in $m/s^2$ is $[\cos 60^{\circ}=0.5]$

In which of the following cases is the contact force between $A$ and $B$ maximum? (Given: $m_A = m_B = 1 \ kg$)

$A$ person is managing to be at rest between two vertical walls by pressing one wall with his hands and feet and the second wall with his back. The coefficient of friction is $0.5$ between his body and the walls. If the force with which the person pushes the walls is $500 \ N$,then the mass of the person is (Take $g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $kg$)

Place a uniform meter scale horizontally on your extended index fingers with the left one at $0.00 \ cm$ and the right one at $90.00 \ cm$. When you attempt to move both fingers slowly towards the center,initially only the left finger slips with respect to the scale and the right finger does not. After some distance,the left finger stops and the right one starts slipping. Then the right finger stops at a distance $x_R$ from the center $(50.00 \ cm)$ of the scale and the left one starts slipping again. This happens because of the difference in the frictional forces on the two fingers. If the coefficients of static and dynamic friction between the fingers and the scale are $0.40$ and $0.32$,respectively,the value of $x_R$ (in $cm$) is:

The system shown in the figure is in equilibrium and at rest. The spring and string are massless. Now,the string is cut. The acceleration of mass $2m$ and $m$ just after the string is cut will be:
