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.

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ of masses $5 \, kg$ and $10 \, kg$ in contact with each other rest on a table against a rigid wall. The coefficient of friction between the bodies and the table is $0.15$. $A$ force of $200 \, N$ is applied horizontally to $A$. What are $(a)$ the reaction of the partition $(b)$ the action-reaction forces between $A$ and $B$? What happens when the wall is removed? Does the answer to $(b)$ change,when the bodies are in motion? Ignore the difference between $\mu_{s}$ and $\mu_{k}$.

$A$ block of mass $m$ is placed on a smooth horizontal surface. $A$ force making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal starts acting on the block. The magnitude of the force is constant but its direction with the horizontal changes as $\theta = a + bs$,where $a$ and $b$ are constants and $s$ is the distance covered by the block. If $|F| = 2mb$,find the velocity of the block as a function of the angle $\theta$.
