A block A of mass m₁ rests on a horizontal table. A light string connected to it passes over a frictionless pulley at the edge of table and from its other end another block B of mass m₂ is suspended. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the table is  μ_k. When the block A is sliding on the table, the tension in the string is

1. (m₂+μ_km₁)g /(m₁+m₂)

2. (m₂-μ_km₁)g/(m₁+m₂)

3. m₁m₂(1+μ_k)g/(m₁+m₂)

4. m₁m₂(1-μ_k)g/(m₁+m₂)

A plank with a box on it at one end is gradually raised about the other end. As the angle of inclination with the horizontal reaches 30°, the box starts to slip and slides 4.0 m down the plank in 4.0 s.

2. 0.6 and 0.5

3. 0.5 and 0.6

4. 0.4 and 0.3

Two stones of masses m and 2m are whirled in horizontal circles, the heavier one in a radius r/2 and the lighter one in radius r. The tangential speed of lighter stone is n times that of the value of heavier stone when they experience same centripetal forces. The value of n is

A car of mass \(m\) is moving on a level circular track of radius \(R\). If \(\mu_s\) represent the static friction between the road and tyres of the car, then the maximum speed of the car in circular motion is given by:

A person of mass 60 kg is inside a lift of mass 940 kg and presses the button on control panel. The lift starts moving upwards with an acceleration $1.0$ $\mathrm{m}/{\mathrm{s}}^2$. If $\mathrm{g}=10$ $\mathrm{m}/{\mathrm{s}}^2$, the tension in the supporting cable is:

1. 9680 N

2. 11000 N

3. 1200 N

4. 8600 N

A body of mass M hits normally a rigid wall with velocity v and bounces back with the same velocity. The impulse experienced by the body is

A gramophone record is revolving with an angular velocity $\omega .$ A coin is placed at a distance r from the centre of the record. The static coefficient of friction is $\mu .$ The coin will revolve with the record if:
