$STATEMENT-1$: It is easier to pull a heavy object than to push it on a level ground.
$STATEMENT-2$: The magnitude of frictional force depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact.

$A$ projectile is thrown from a point $O$ on the ground at an angle $45^{\circ}$ from the vertical and with a speed $5 \sqrt{2} \text{ m/s}$. The projectile at the highest point of its trajectory splits into two equal parts. One part falls vertically down to the ground,$0.5 \text{ s}$ after the splitting. The other part,$t$ seconds after the splitting,falls to the ground at a distance $x$ meters from the point $O$. The acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$.
$(1)$ The value of $t$ is. . . . . .
$(2)$ The value of $x$ is. . . . .

$A$ helicopter of mass $1000 \;kg$ rises with a vertical acceleration of $15\; m s^{-2}$. The crew and the passengers weigh $300\; kg$. Give the magnitude and direction of the
$(a)$ force on the floor by the crew and passengers,
$(b)$ action of the rotor of the helicopter on the surrounding air,
$(c)$ force on the helicopter due to the surrounding air.

Imagine the situation in which the given arrangement is placed inside a trolley that can move only in the horizontal direction,as shown in the figure. If the trolley is accelerated horizontally along the positive $x$-axis with $a_0$,and if $a_{min}$ and $a_{max}$ are the minimum and maximum values of $a_0$ for which the blocks remain stationary with respect to the surface,then identify the correct statements.

$A$ ball connected with a string is released at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the vertical,as shown in the figure. If the mass of the box is equal to the mass of the ball,the acceleration of the box at this instant will be:

$A$ block of mass $2M$ is attached to a massless spring with spring-constant $k$. This block is connected to two other blocks of masses $M$ and $2M$ using two massless pulleys and strings. The accelerations of the blocks are $a_1, a_2$ and $a_3$ as shown in the figure. The system is released from rest with the spring in its unstretched state. The maximum extension of the spring is $x_0$. Which of the following option$(s)$ is/are correct? [$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity. Neglect friction]
