Two masses $A$ and $B$ of $10\,kg$ and $5\,kg$ respectively are connected by a string passing over a frictionless pulley fixed at the corner of a table. The coefficient of friction between mass $A$ and the table is $0.2$. The minimum mass of $C$ that must be placed on $A$ to prevent it from moving is equal to $...........\,kg$.

    $5$
  • B

$A$ block of mass $0.18 \ kg$ is attached to a spring of force-constant $2 \ N/m$. The coefficient of friction between the block and the floor is $0.1$. Initially,the block is at rest and the spring is un-stretched. An impulse is given to the block as shown in the figure. The block slides a distance of $0.06 \ m$ and comes to rest for the first time. The initial velocity of the block in $m/s$ is $v = N/10$. Then $N$ is:

In the figure shown,all surfaces are frictionless,and the mass of the block is $m = 1\, kg$. The block and wedge are held initially at rest. Now,the wedge is given a horizontal acceleration of $a = 10\, m/s^2$ by applying a force on the wedge,such that the block does not slip on the wedge. Calculate the work done by the normal force in the ground frame on the block in $\sqrt{3}$ seconds. (Assume $\tan \theta = a/g = 1$,so $\theta = 45^\circ$)
