$A$ trolley of mass $20 \ kg$ is attached to a block of mass $4 \ kg$ by a massless string passing over a frictionless pulley as shown in the figure. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the trolley and the surface is $0.02$,then the acceleration of the trolley and block system is (take $g=10 \ ms^{-2}$):- (in $ms^{-2}$)

Two spheres $P$ and $Q$ of equal masses $m$ are attached to a string of total length $2\, m$ as shown in the figure. The string and the spheres are then whirled in a horizontal circle about $O$ at a constant angular velocity $\omega$. The distance $OP = 1\, m$ and $PQ = 1\, m$. What is the value of the ratio $\left( \frac{\text{Tension in the string between } P \text{ and } Q}{\text{Tension in the string between } O \text{ and } P} \right)?$

Two blocks,each of mass $M$,are initially at rest on frictionless surfaces as shown in the figure. If the pulleys are light and frictionless,and the block of mass $M$ on the incline is allowed to move down,then the tension in the string will be$-$

Two masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are placed on a smooth horizontal surface and are connected by a string of negligible mass. $A$ horizontal force $F$ is applied on the mass $m_2$ as shown in the figure. The tension in the string is

Ten one-rupee coins are placed on top of each other on a table. Each coin has mass $m$. The reaction force of the $6^{th}$ coin (counted from the bottom) on the $7^{th}$ coin is .......... $mg$.

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ of masses $10\, kg$ and $15\, kg$ respectively,kept on a smooth horizontal surface,are tied to the ends of a light string. If $T$ represents the tension in the string when a horizontal force $F = 500\, N$ is applied to $A$ (as shown in figure $I$) and $T'$ is the tension when it is applied to $B$ (figure $II$),then which of the following is true?
