This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2$. Of the four choices given after the Statements,choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement $1$: If you push on a cart being pulled by a horse so that it does not move,the cart pushes you back with an equal and opposite force.
Statement $2$: The cart does not move because the forces described in Statement $1$ cancel each other.

$A$ system consists of three masses $m_1, m_2$ and $m_3$ connected by a string passing over a pulley $P$. The mass $m_1$ hangs freely and $m_2$ and $m_3$ are on a rough horizontal table (the coefficient of friction $= \mu$). The pulley is frictionless and of negligible mass. The downward acceleration of mass $m_1$ is (Assume $m_1 = m_2 = m_3 = m$)

$A$ parachutist of weight $w$ strikes the ground with his legs fixed and comes to rest with an upward acceleration of magnitude $3g$. The force exerted on him by the ground during landing is:

Consider the following statements $A$ and $B$ and identify the correct answer:
$A$. When a person walks on a rough surface,the direction of the frictional force exerted by the surface on the person is in the same direction as his motion.
$B$. When a cycle is in motion,the force of friction exerted by the ground on the front wheel is in the backward direction.

$A$ cubical box of side $a$ sitting on a rough table-top is pushed horizontally with a gradually increasing force until the box moves. If the force is applied at a height from the table top which is greater than a critical height $H$,the box topples first. If it is applied at a height less than $H$,the box starts sliding first. Then,the coefficient of friction between the box and the table top is
