Two blocks $A$ and $B$ of equal masses are sliding down along straight parallel lines on an inclined plane of $45^{\circ}$. Their coefficients of kinetic friction are $\mu_A = 0.2$ and $\mu_B = 0.3$ respectively. At $t = 0$,both the blocks are at rest and block $A$ is $\sqrt{2} \text{ m}$ behind block $B$. Calculate the time and distance from the initial position where the front faces of the blocks come in line on the inclined plane as shown in the figure. (Use $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$)

$A$ block of mass $2\,\,kg$ is placed on a rough inclined plane as shown in the figure $(\mu = 0.2)$ so that it just touches the spring. The block is allowed to move downwards. The spring will be compressed to a maximum of

$A$ uniform chain of total length $L$ is at rest,partially on an incline of angle $\theta = 30^{\circ}$ and partially hanging vertically. The coefficient of friction between the chain and the incline is $\mu = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{3}}$. Find the ratio $\frac{L_{\max}}{L_{\min}}$,where $L_{\max}$ is the maximum length of the chain on the incline and $L_{\min}$ is the minimum length of the chain on the incline such that the chain remains at rest.

$A$ body starts from rest on a long inclined plane of slope $45^o$. The coefficient of friction between the body and the plane varies as $\mu = 0.3x$,where $x$ is the distance travelled down the plane. The body will have maximum speed (for $g = 10 \ m/s^2$) when $x = $ ........ $m$.
