$A$ string of negligible mass going over a clamped pulley of mass $m$ supports a block of mass $M$ as shown in the figure. The force on the pulley by the clamp is given by

  • A
    $\sqrt 2 Mg$
  • B
    $\sqrt 2 mg$
  • C
    $\sqrt {{{(M + m)}^2} + {m^2}} g$
  • D
    $\sqrt {{{(M + m)}^2} + {M^2}} g$

The upper half of an inclined plane of inclination $\theta$ is perfectly smooth,while the lower half is rough. $A$ block starting from rest at the top of the plane will again come to rest at the bottom if the coefficient of friction between the block and the lower half of the plane is given by:

Three blocks $A, B$ and $C,$ of masses $4 \, kg, 2 \, kg$ and $1 \, kg$ respectively,are in contact on a frictionless surface,as shown. If a force of $14 \, N$ is applied on the $4 \, kg$ block,then the contact force between $A$ and $B$ is .......... $N$.

An electric lift with a maximum load of $2000\,kg$ (lift + passengers) is moving up with a constant speed of $1.5\,m/s$. The frictional force opposing the motion is $3000\,N$. The minimum power delivered by the motor to the lift in watts is: $(g=10\,m/s^2)$

$Assertion$: Two bodies of masses $M$ and $m$ $(M > m)$ are allowed to fall from the same height. If the air resistance for each is the same,then both bodies will reach the Earth simultaneously.
$Reason$: For the same air resistance,the acceleration of both bodies will be the same.

Given in the figure are two blocks $A$ and $B$ of weight $20\ N$ and $100\ N,$ respectively. These are being pressed against a wall by a force $F$ as shown. If the coefficient of friction between the blocks is $0.1$ and between block $B$ and the wall is $0.15$,the frictional force applied by the wall on block $B$ is ........... $N$.
