$A$ block of mass $3 \,kg$ is pressed against a vertical wall by applying a force $F$ at an angle $30^{\circ}$ to the horizontal as shown in the figure. As a result, the block is prevented from falling down. If the coefficient of static friction between the block and wall is $\mu = \sqrt{3}$, then the value of $F$ is (use $g=10 \,m/s^2$):

Two blocks of masses $M_1$ and $M_2$ are connected with a string passing over a pulley as shown in the figure. The block $M_1$ lies on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction between the block $M_1$ and the horizontal surface is $\mu$. What additional mass $m$ should be placed on the block $M_1$ so that the system does not accelerate?

What is the maximum value of the force $F$ such that the block shown in the arrangement does not move (in $N$)? (Given $m = \sqrt{3} \ kg$,$\mu = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{3}}$,$g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

$A$ cylinder of $10 \, kg$ is sliding on a plane with an initial velocity of $10 \, m/s$. If the coefficient of friction between the surface and the cylinder is $0.5$,then the distance it will cover before stopping is ........ $m$. $(g = 10 \, m/s^2)$

$A$ block of mass $2 \,kg$ is being pushed against a wall by a force $F=90 \,N$ as shown in the figure. If the coefficient of friction is $0.25$, then the magnitude of acceleration of the block is (Take $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$, $\sin 37^{\circ}=\frac{3}{5}$). (in $\,ms^{-2}$)
