A cyclist riding the bicycle at a speed of $14\sqrt 3 ms^{-1}$takes a turn around a circular road of radius $20\sqrt 3 $ m without skidding. Given $g = 9.8 ms^{-2},$ what is his inclination to the vertical ....... $^o$
Two particles of equal masses are revolving in circular paths of radii ${r_1}$ and ${r_2}$ respectively with the same speed. The ratio of their centripetal forces is
A heavy box is solid across a rough floor with an initial speed of $4 \,m / s$. It stops moving after $8$ seconds. If the average resisting force of friction is $10 \,N$, the mass of the box (in $kg$ ) is .....
Someone is using a scissors to cut a wire of circular cross section and negligible weight. The wire slides in the direction away from the hinge until the angle between the scissors blades becomes $2 \alpha$. The friction coefficient between the blades and the wire, is :-
A fireman of mass $60\, kg$ slides down a pole. He is pressing the pole with a force of $600 \,N$. The coefficient of friction between the hands and the pole is $0.5$, with what acceleration will the fireman slide down ........ $m/s^2$
A block of mass $m$ is placed on a surface with a vertical cross section given by $y = \frac{{{x^3}}}{6}$ If the coefficient of friction is $0.5$,the maximum height above the ground at which the block can be placed without slipping is:
