Shown in the diagram is a system of two bodies, a block of mass $m$ and a disc of mass $4\ m$ , held in equilibrium. If the string $3$ is burnt, find the acceleration of the disc. Neglect the masses of the pulleys $P$ and $Q$ . The co-efficient of friction between the block and horizontal surface is $0.5$ and friction between disc and string is zero ........ $m/s^2$

In the arrangement shown in the figure, mass of the block $B$ and $A$ is $2m$ and $m$ respectively. Surface between $B$ and floor is smooth. The block $B$ is connected to the block $C$ by means of a string pulley system. If the whole system is released, then find the minimum value of mass of block $C$ so that block $A$ remains stationary $w.r.t. B$. Coefficient of friction between $A$ and $B$ is $\mu$
A block of mass $m$ lying on a rough horizontal plane is acted upon by a horizontal force $P$ and another force $Q$ inclined an at an angle $\theta $ to the vertical. The minimum value of coefficient of friction between the block and the surface for which the block will remain in equilibrium is
In figure, two blocks are separated by a uniform strut attached to each block with frictionless pins. Block $A$ weighs $400\,N$, block $B$ weighs $300\,N$, and the strut $A B$ weigh $200\,N$. If $\mu=0.25$ under $B$, determine the minimum coefficient of friction under $A$ to prevent motion.
A rough vertical board has an acceleration $‘a’$ so that a $2$ kg block pressing against it does not fall. The coefficient of friction between the block and the board should be
If the radius of curvature of the path of two particles of same masses are in the ratio $1 : 2$, then in order to have constant centripetal force, their velocity, should be in the ratio of
A boy of mass $4\, kg$ is standing on a piece of wood having mass $5 \,kg$. If the coefficient of friction between the wood and the floor is $0.5,$ the maximum force that the boy can exert on the rope so that the piece of wood does not move from its place is ......$N.$(Round off to the Nearest Integer) [Take $g=10 \,ms ^{-2}$ ]
A body takes time $t$ to reach the bottom of an inclined plane of angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. If the plane is made rough, time taken now is $2t$. The coefficient of friction of the rough surface is
A force $f$ is acting on a block of mass $m$. Coefficient of friction between block and surface is $\mu$. The block can be pulled along the surface if :-
