Identify the incorrect statement.

The driver of a car travelling at velocity $v$ suddenly sees a broad wall in front of him at a distance $d$. He should

For the given system,which of the following relations holds between $T_1$,$T_2$,and $T_3$?

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:

In the figure,two blocks $M$ and $m$ are tied together with an inextensible and light string. The mass $M$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface with coefficient of friction $\mu$ and the mass $m$ is hanging vertically against a smooth vertical wall. The pulley is frictionless. When the downward acceleration of the elevator becomes equal to $g$,then

Explain why
$(a)$ a horse cannot pull a cart and run in empty space,
$(b)$ passengers are thrown forward from their seats when a speeding bus stops suddenly,
$(c)$ it is easier to pull a lawn mower than to push it,
$(d)$ a cricketer moves his hands backwards while holding a catch.
