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
The density of the atmosphere at sea level is $1.29 \;kg / m ^{3} .$ Assume that it does not change with altitude. Then how high (in $km$) would the atmosphere extend?
Two men are walking along a horizontal straight line in the same direction. The man in front walks at a speed $1.0 m s ^{-1}$ and the man behind walks at a speed $2.0 ms ^{-1}$. A third man is standing at a height $12 m$ above the same horizontal line such that all three men are in a vertical plane. The two walking men are blowing identical whistles which emit a sound of frequency $1430 Hz$. The speed of sound in air is $330 m s ^{-1}$. At the instant, when the moving men are $10 m$ apart, the stationary man is equidistant from them. The frequency of beats in $Hz$, heard by the stationary man at this instant, is. . . . .
