A light inextensible string that goes over a smooth fixed pulley as shown in the figure connects two blocks of masses $0.36 \mathrm{~kg}$ and $0.72 \mathrm{~kg}$. Taking $g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$, find the work done (in joules) by the string on the block of mass $0.36 \mathrm{~kg}$ during the first second after the system is released from rest.

If a particle of mass $m$ is moving in a horizontal circle of radius $r$ with a centripetal force $( - k/{r^2})$, the total energy is

$STATEMENT$-$1$ A block of mass $\mathrm{m}$ starts moving on a rough horizontal surface with a velocity $\mathrm{v}$. It stops due to friction between the block and the surface after moving through a certain distance. The surface is now tilted to an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal and the same block is made to go up on the surface with the same initial velocity $v$. The decrease in the mechanical energy in the second situation is smaller than that in the first situation. because

$STATEMENT$- $2$ The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface decreases with the increase in the angle of inclination.
