A block of mass $M$ is being pulled along rough horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is $\mu $. If another block of mass $M/2$ is placed on the block and it is again pulled on the surface, the coefficient of friction between the block and the surface will be

    A hemispherical bowl of radius $r$ is set rotating about its axis of symmetry in vertical. A small block kept in the bowl rotates with bowl without slipping on its surface. If the surface of the bowl is smooth and the angle made by the radius through the block with the vertical is $\theta$, then find the angular speed at which the ball is rotating.
