Two pulley arrangements shown in the figure are identical. The mass of the rope is negligible. In figure $(a)$,the mass $m$ is lifted by attaching a mass $2m$ to the other end of the rope. In figure $(b)$,$m$ is lifted up by pulling the other end of the rope with a constant downward force $F = 2mg$. The accelerations of $m$ in the two cases are respectively:

In the figure,two blocks $M$ and $m$ are tied together with an inextensible and light string. The mass $M$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface with coefficient of friction $\mu$ and the mass $m$ is hanging vertically against a smooth vertical wall. The pulley is frictionless. Choose the correct statement$(s)$ related to the tension $T$ in the string.

An ideal spring is connected between two blocks of masses $M$ and $m$. This system can move on a smooth horizontal table. The blocks are brought closer to compress the spring and then released. In the subsequent motion,select the true statement$(s)$:
$(a)$ They move in opposite directions with speeds inversely proportional to their masses.
$(b)$ The ratio of their speeds remains constant.
$(c)$ Linear momentum and energy of the system remain conserved.

At time $t=0$,a force $F=\alpha t$,where $t$ is time in seconds,is applied to a body of mass $1 \text{ kg}$,resting on a smooth horizontal plane. If the direction of the force makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal,then the velocity of the body at the moment of its breaking off the plane is

State whether the following statements are true or false:
$(a)$ $A$ necessary condition for equilibrium is that the acceleration must be zero.
$(b)$ Centripetal force is always in the opposite direction of centrifugal force.
$(c)$ $A$ man is at rest on a perfectly smooth ice surface in the middle of a pond. He can reach the shore by using Newton's first law.
$(d)$ An object is in equilibrium only if it is at rest.

$A$ block of mass $2M$ is attached to a massless spring with spring-constant $k$. This block is connected to two other blocks of masses $M$ and $2M$ using two massless pulleys and strings. The accelerations of the blocks are $a_1, a_2$ and $a_3$ as shown in the figure. The system is released from rest with the spring in its unstretched state. The maximum extension of the spring is $x_0$. Which of the following option$(s)$ is/are correct? [$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity. Neglect friction]
