$A$ $40 \,kg$ slab rests on a frictionless floor. $A$ $10 \,kg$ block rests on top of the slab. The coefficient of friction between the block and the slab is $0.40$. The $10 \,kg$ block is acted upon by a horizontal force of $100 \,N$. If $g=10 \,m/s^2$,the resulting acceleration of the slab will be ............. $m/s^2$.

The acceleration of block $A$ varies with time as shown in the figure. Find the value of the coefficient of kinetic friction between block $A$ and block $B$.

$A$ 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 $M$. If friction exists between the block $M$ and the block $m_0$ and there is no friction between the block $M$ and the horizontal surface,then the minimum value of $\mu$ for which the block $m_0$ remains stationary with respect to $M$ is:
