A block of mass $4\, kg$ rests on an inclined plane. The inclination of the plane is gradually increased. it is found that when the inclination is $3$ in $5\left( {\sin \theta = \frac{3}{5}} \right)$, the block just begins to slide down the plane. The coefficient of friction between the block and the plane is

A block of mass $m$ is in contact with the cart $C$ as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the cart is $\mu .$ The acceleration $\alpha$ of the cart that will prevent the block from falling satisfies
A vehicle of mass $200\,kg$ is moving along a levelled curved road of radius $70\,m$ with angular velocity of $0.2\,rad / s$. The centripetal force acting on the vehicle is $.........\,N$
A particle of mass $m$ is at rest at the origin at time $t = 0$. It is subjected to a force $F(t) = F_0e^{-bt}$ in the $x$ -direction. Its speed $v(t)$ is depicted by which of the following curves ?
A body of $5 \,kg$ weight kept on a rough inclined plane of angle $30^{\circ}$ starts sliding with a constant velocity. Then the coefficient of friction is (assume $g=10 \,ms ^{-2}$ )
A person with his hand in his pocket is skating on ice at the rate of $10 m / s$ and describes a circle of radius $50 m$. What is his inclination to vertical: $\left( g =10 m / sec ^2\right)$
A block of mass $5\, kg$ is $(i)$ pushed in case $(A)$ and $(ii)$ pulled in case $(B)$, by a force $F = 20\, N$, making an angle of $30^o$ with the horizontal, as shown in the figures. The coefficient of friction between the block and floor is $\mu = 0.2$. The difference between the accelerations of the block, in case $(B)$ and case $(A)$ will be ........ $ms^{-2}$ .$(g = 10\, ms^{-2})$
Consider a block kept on an inclined plane (inclined at $45^{\circ}$ ) as shown in the figure. If the force required to just push it up the incline is $2$ times the force required to just prevent it from sliding down, the coefficient of friction between the block and inclined plane $(\mu)$ is equal to
A disc with a flat small bottom beaker placed on it at a distance $R$ from its center is revolving about an axis passing through the center and perpendicular to its plane with an angular velocity $\omega$. The coefficient of static friction between the bottom of the beaker and the surface of the disc is $\mu$. The beaker will revolve with the disc if
