A box of mass 8kg is placed on a rough inclined plane of inclination θ. Its downward motion can be prevented by applying an upward pull F and it can be made to slide upwards by applying a force 2F. The coefficient of friction between the box and the inclined plane is
Detailed Solution: Question 1
The coefficient of friction between 4kg and 5kg blocks is 0.2 and between 5kg blocks and ground is 0.1 respectively. Choose the correct statement :

Detailed Solution: Question 2
A block of mass 1kg lies on a horizontal surface in a truck. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface is 0.6. If the acceleration of the truck is 5 m/s2, the friction force acting on the block is :
Detailed Solution: Question 3
In the following figure, find the direction of friction on the blocks and ground respectively.

Detailed Solution: Question 4
A chain of length L is placed on a horizontal surface as shown in figure. At any instant x is the length of chain on rough surface and the remaining portion lies on smooth surface. Initially x = 0. A horizontal force P is applied to the chain (as shown in the figure). In the duration x changes from x = 0 to x = L, for chain to move with constant speed :

Detailed Solution: Question 5
In the arrangement shown in the figure mass of the block B and A are 2m, 8m respectively. Surface between B and floor is smooth. The block B is connected to block C by means of a pulley. If the whole system is released then the minimum value of mass of the block C so that the block A remains stationary with respect to B is :
(Co-efficient of friction between A and B is μ).

Detailed Solution: Question 6
The two blocks, m = 10kg and M = 50kg are free to move as shown. The coefficient of static friction between the blocks is 0.5 and there is no friction between M and the ground. A minimum horizontal force F is applied to hold m against M that is equal to :

Detailed Solution: Question 7
A given object takes n times more time to slide down 45° rough inclined plane as it takes to slide down a perfectly smooth 45° incline. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the objects and the incline is.
Detailed Solution: Question 8
A force F = t is applied to a block A as shown in figure, where t is time in seconds. The force is applied at t = 0 seconds when the system was at rest. Which of the following graph correctly give the frictional force between A and horizontal surface as a function of time t. [Assume that at t = 0, tension in the string connecting the two blocks is zero].

Detailed Solution: Question 9
Given mA = 20kg, mB = 10kg, mC = 20kg. Between A and B, µ1 = 0.3, between B and C, µ2 = 0.3 and between C and ground µ3 = 0.1. The least horizontal force F to start the motion of any part of the system of three blocks resting upon one another as shown in figure is (g = 10 m/s2)
