Statement $I :$ $A$ cyclist is moving on an unbanked road with a speed of $7 \, km/h$ and takes a sharp circular turn along a path of radius $2 \, m$ without reducing the speed. The static friction coefficient is $0.2$. The cyclist will not slip and pass the curve $(g = 9.8 \, m/s^2)$.
Statement $II :$ If the road is banked at an angle of $45^{\circ}$,the cyclist can cross the curve of $2 \, m$ radius with a speed of $18.5 \, km/h$ without slipping.

  • A
    Statement $I$ is incorrect and statement $II$ is correct.
  • B
    Statement $I$ is correct and statement $II$ is incorrect.
  • C
    Both statement $I$ and statement $II$ are false.
  • D
    Both statement $I$ and statement $II$ are true.

Three blocks with masses $m$,$2m$,and $3m$ are connected by strings,as shown in the figure. After an upward force $F$ is applied on block $m$,the masses move upward at a constant speed $v$. What is the net force on the block of mass $2m$? ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity)

$A$ ball of mass $2 \ kg$ is moving in $xy$-plane with a potential energy given as $U=(12x + 16y) \ J$, where $x$ and $y$ are in metres. Assume the initial position of the ball at $t=0$ is at the origin $(0,0)$ and it is moving with a velocity of $(15 \hat{i} + 20 \hat{j}) \ m/s$. Identify the correct statement.

State whether the following statements are true or false:
$(a)$ Momentum and the change in momentum are always in the same direction.
$(b)$ Action force and reaction force always act simultaneously and on the same body.
$(c)$ The maximum static frictional force depends on the area of the contact surface.

The system shown in the figure is in equilibrium and at rest. The spring and string are massless. Now,the string is cut. The acceleration of mass $2m$ and $m$ just after the string is cut will be:
