In the figure,a ladder of mass $m$ is shown leaning against a wall. It is in static equilibrium making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal floor. The coefficient of friction between the wall and the ladder is $\mu_1$ and that between the floor and the ladder is $\mu_2$. The normal reaction of the wall on the ladder is $N_1$ and that of the floor is $N_2$. If the ladder is about to slip,then

Two situations are shown in figures $(a)$ and $(b)$. In each case,$m_1 = 3 \ kg$ and $m_2 = 4 \ kg$. If $a_1$ and $a_2$ are the respective accelerations of the blocks in these situations,then the values of $a_1$ and $a_2$ are respectively [ $g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$ ]

$A$ wooden block of mass $2\; kg$ rests on a soft horizontal floor. When an iron cylinder of mass $25\; kg$ is placed on top of the block,the floor yields steadily and the block and the cylinder together go down with an acceleration of $0.1\; m/s^2$. What is the action of the block on the floor $(a)$ before and $(b)$ after the floor yields? Take $g = 10\; m/s^2$. Identify the action-reaction pairs in the problem.

Two fixed frictionless inclined planes making an angle $30^\circ$ and $60^\circ$ with the vertical are shown in the figure. Two blocks $A$ and $B$ are placed on the two planes. What is the relative vertical acceleration of $A$ with respect to $B$?

Consider a system of blocks $A$, $B$, and $X$ as shown in the figure. The blocks $A$ and $B$ have equal mass $m$ and are connected by a massless string through a massless pulley. The coefficient of friction between block $A$ and $X$, and between block $B$ and $X$, is $\mu = 0.5$. If block $X$ moves on the horizontal frictionless surface, what should be its minimum acceleration $a$ such that blocks $A$ and $B$ remain stationary relative to $X$? ($g =$ acceleration due to gravity.)

When the bomb $Q$ explodes,the trolley of mass $200 \, kg$ travels a distance of $36 \, m$ before coming to rest. What distance will the trolley of mass $300 \, kg$ travel before coming to rest (in $, m$)?
