Two blocks $A$ and $B$ of masses $m_A = 1\,kg$ and $m_B = 3\,kg$ are kept on the table as shown in figure. The coefficient of friction between $A$ and $B$ is $0.2$ and between $B$ and the surface of the table is also $0.2.$ The maximum force $F$ that can be applied on $B$ horizontal, so that the block $A$ does not slide over the block $B$ is $...... N. [$Take $g = 10\,m/s^2 ]$

Given in the figure are two blocks $A$ and $B$ of weight $20\ N$ and $100\ N,$ respectively. These are being pressed against a wall by a force $F$ as shown. If the coefficient of friction between the blocks is $0.1$ and between block $B$ and the wall is $0.15$, the frictional force applied by the wall on block $B$ is $......... N$
A solid hemisphere of weight $P$ rests with its curved surface in contact with a rough inclined plane. A weight $Q$ is placed at some point on the rim of the hemisphere to keep its plane surface horizontal then its minimum coefficient of friction is
A force of $19.6\, N$ when applied parallel to the surface just moves a body of mass $10 \,kg$ kept on a horizontal surface. If a $5\, kg$ mass is kept on the first mass, the force applied parallel to the surface to just move the combined body is........ $N.$
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 rectangular block has a square base measuring $a \times a$ and its height is $h$. It moves on a horizontal surface in a direction perpendicular to one of the edges. The coefficient of friction is $\mu$. It will topple if
An insect crawls up a hemispherical surface very slowly. The coefficient of friction between the insect and the surface is $1/3$. If the line joining the centre of the hemispherical surface to the insect makes an angle $\alpha $ with the vertical, the maximum possible value of $\alpha $ so that the insect does not slip is given by
A train is running at $20 \,m / s$ on a railway line with radius of curvature $40,000$ metres. The distance between the two rails is $1.5$ metres. For safe running of train the elevation of outer rail over the inner rail is ......$mm$ $\left( g =10 \,m / s ^2\right)$
A block of mass $10\; \mathrm{kg}$ is in contact against the inner wall of a hollow cylindow cylindrical drum of radius $1 \;\mathrm{m}$. The coeffident of friction between the block and the inner wall of the cylinder is $0.1$. The minimum angular velocity needed for the cylinder to keep the block stationary when the cylinder is vertical and rotating about its axis, will be: ......$rad/s$ $\left(g-10 m / s^{2}\right)$
