    A small mass $'m'$ rests at the edge of a horizontal disc of radius $'R'$ . The coefficient of static friction between mass and the disc is $\mu $ . The disc is rotated about its axis at an angular velocity such that the mass slides off the disc and lands on the floor $'h'$ meters below. What was its horizontal distance of travel from the point it left the disc?

    A rope of length $L$ and mass $M$ is being pulled on a rough horizontal floor by a constant horizontal force $F$ = $Mg$ . The force is acting at one end of the rope in the same direction as the length of the rope. The coefficient of kinetic friction between rope and floor is $1/2$ . Then, the tension at the midpoint of the rope is

    A railway line is taken round a circular arc of radius $1000\ m$, and is banked by raising the outer rail $h\  m$ above the inner rail. If the lateral force on the inner rail when a train travels round the curve at $10 \ ms^{-1}$ is equal to the lateral force on the outer rail when the train's speed is $20\  ms^{-1}$. The value of $4g\  tan\theta$  is equal to : (The distance between the rails is $1.5 \  m$).
