$A$ solid ball is suspended from the ceiling of a motor car through a light string. $A$ transverse pulse travels at the speed $60 \text{ cm/s}$ on the string, when the car is at rest. When the car accelerates on a horizontal road, the speed of the pulse is $66 \text{ cm/s}$. The acceleration of the car is nearly $\left(g=10 \text{ m/s}^2\right)$ (in $\text{ m/s}^2$)

$A$ block of mass $M$ is placed on a horizontal surface and is tied with an inextensible string to a block of mass $m$,as shown in the figure. $A$ block of mass $m_0$ is also placed on $M$. The surface under $M$ is smooth,while the vertical surface under $m$ is rough with a coefficient of friction $\mu$. The minimum value of $\mu$ for which the block $m$ remains stationary is:

The masses of blocks $A$ and $B$ are $100 \, kg$ and $200 \, kg$ respectively. The coefficient of friction between $A$ and $B$ is $0.2$,and the coefficient of friction between $B$ and the ground is $0.3$. What force $F$ (in $N$) must be applied to block $B$ to make it move?

$Assertion$ : $A$ man and a block rest on a smooth horizontal surface. The man holds a rope which is connected to the block. The man cannot move on the horizontal surface.
$Reason$ : $A$ man standing at rest on a smooth horizontal surface cannot start walking due to the absence of friction (The man is only in contact with the floor as shown).

In a tug-of-war contest,two men pull on a horizontal rope from opposite sides. The winner will be the man who
