Two masses $A$ and $B$ of $10\,kg$ and $5\,kg$ respectively are connected by a string passing over a frictionless pulley fixed at the corner of a table. The coefficient of friction between mass $A$ and the table is $0.2$. The minimum mass of $C$ that must be placed on $A$ to prevent it from moving is equal to $...........\,kg$.

  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $10$
  • C
    $15$
  • D

$A$ $1\; kg$ block situated on a rough incline is connected to a spring of spring constant $100\; N m^{-1}$ as shown in the figure. The block is released from rest with the spring in the unstretched position. The block moves $10\; cm$ down the incline before coming to rest. Find the coefficient of friction between the block and the incline. Assume that the spring has a negligible mass and the pulley is frictionless.
