A body of mass M is kept on a rough horizontal surface (friction coefficient $\mu $). A person is trying to pull the body by applying a horizontal force but the body is not moving. The force by the surface on the body is $F$, where
A block of mass $m$ lying on a rough horizontal plane is acted upon by a horizontal force $P$ and another force $Q$ inclined at an angle $\theta $ to the vertical. The block will remain in equilibrium, if the coefficient of friction between it and the surface is
If the radius of curvature of the path of two particles of same mass are in the ratio $3:4,$ then in order to have constant centripetal force, their velocities will be in the ratio of:
$A$ block placed on a rough inclined plane of inclination $(\theta =30^o)$ can just be pushed upwards by applying $a$ force $"F"$ as shown. If the angle of inclination of the inclined plane is increased to $(\theta = 60^o)$, the same block can just be prevented from sliding down by application of a force of same magnitude. Thecoefficient of friction between the block and the inclined plane is
A block is projected with speed $20 \,m / s$ on a rough horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction $(\mu)$ between the surfaces varies with time $(t)$ as shown in figure. The speed of body at the end of $4$ second will be ............ $m / s$ ( $g=$ $10 \,m / s ^2$ )
Two blocks $A$ and $B$ of equal masses are sliding down along straight parallel lines on an inclined plane of $45^o$ . Their coefficients of kinetic friction are $\mu _A = 0.2$ and $\mu _B = 0.3$ respectively. At $t = 0$ , both the blocks are at rest and block $A$ is $\sqrt 2$ metre behind block $B$ . The time and distance from the initial position where the front faces of the blocks come in line on the inclined plane as shown in figure. (Use $g = 10\, ms^{-2}$ )
A coin is placed on a disc. The coefficient of friction between the coin and the disc is $\mu$. If the distance of the coin from the center of the disc is $r$, the maximum angular velocity which can be given to the disc, so that the coin does not slip away, is:
