$A$ balloon of total mass $M$ and a fixed size starts coming down with an acceleration $f$ $(f < g)$. The fraction of the total mass of the balloon which must be dropped from it so that it starts going up with an acceleration of $f$ (assuming negligible air resistance) is

  • A
    $\frac{f}{g + f}$
  • B
    $\frac{2f}{g + f}$
  • C
    $\frac{g + f}{f}$
  • D
    $\frac{2f}{g + 2f}$

$A$ block of mass $5\, kg$ is $(i)$ pushed in case $(A)$ and $(ii)$ pulled in case $(B)$,by a force $F = 20\, N$,making an angle of $30^o$ with the horizontal,as shown in the figures. The coefficient of friction between the block and floor is $\mu = 0.2$. The difference between the accelerations of the block,in case $(B)$ and case $(A)$ will be ........ $ms^{-2}$ .$(g = 10\, ms^{-2})$

$Assertion$ : $A$ 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).

$A$ ball of mass $2 \ kg$ is moving in $xy$-plane with a potential energy given as $U=(12x + 16y) \ J$,where $x$ and $y$ are in metres. Assume the initial position of the ball at $t=0$ is at the origin $(0,0)$ and it is moving with a velocity of $(15 \hat{i} + 20 \hat{j}) \ m/s$. Identify the correct statement.

Consider the following statements $A$ and $B$ and identify the correct answer given below:
$(A)$ $A$ body initially at rest is acted upon by a constant force. The rate of change of its kinetic energy varies linearly with time.
$(B)$ When a body is at rest,it must be in equilibrium.

$A$ car of mass $1250 \ kg$ is moving with a velocity of $30 \ m/s$. $A$ resistive force of $750 \ N$ acts on it. If the engine produces a power of $30 \ kW$,what is the acceleration of the car in $m/s^2$?
