Two fixed frictionless inclined planes making an angle $30^\circ$ and $60^\circ$ with the vertical are shown in the figure. Two blocks $A$ and $B$ are placed on the two planes. What is the relative vertical acceleration of $A$ with respect to $B$?

  • A
    $4.9 \ m/s^2$ in horizontal direction
  • B
    $4.9 \ m/s^2$ in vertical direction
  • C
    $9.8 \ m/s^2$ in vertical direction
  • D

$A$ block $A$ of mass $m_1$ rests on a horizontal table. $A$ light string connected to it passes over a frictionless pulley at the edge of the table,and from its other end,another block $B$ of mass $m_2$ is suspended. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block $A$ and the table is $\mu_k$. When the block $A$ is sliding on the table,the tension in the string is:

$A$ car is moving with uniform velocity on a rough horizontal road. Therefore,according to Newton's first law of motion,

Two blocks of mass $2 \ kg$ and $1 \ kg$ are connected by an ideal spring on a rough surface. The spring is unstretched. The spring constant is $8 \ N/m$. The coefficient of friction is $\mu = 0.8$. Now,the $2 \ kg$ block is imparted a velocity $u$ towards the $1 \ kg$ block. Find the maximum value of velocity $u$ of the $2 \ kg$ block such that the $1 \ kg$ block never moves.
