प्रश्न
A block of mass 2 kg placed on a long frictionless horizontal table is pulled horizontally by a constant force F. It is found to move 10 m in the first seconds. Find the magnitude of F.
उत्तर
Given:
Mass of the block, m = 2 kg,
Distance covered, S = 10 m and initial velocity, u = 0
t = 2
Formula:
`S = ut + 1/2at^2`
F = ma
Solution:
Let a be the acceleration of the block.
`S = ut + 1/2at^2`
`10 = 1/2a(2^2)` (∵ u = 0)
∴ `a = (10 xx 2)/(2^2)`
∴ `a = (10 xx 2)/(2 xx 2)`
∴ `a = 20/4`
∴ a = 5
Force, F = ma
= 2 × 5
= 10 N

The figure shows a light spring balance connected to two blocks of mass 20 kg each. The graduations in the balance measure the tension in the spring. (a) What is the reading of the balance? (b) Will the reading change if the balance is heavy, say 2.0 kg? (c) What will happen if the spring is light but the blocks have unequal masses?
Consider a book lying on a table. The weight of the book and the normal force by the table in the book are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. Is this an example of Newton's third law?
A plumb bob is hung from the ceiling of a train compartment. If the train moves with an acceleration 'a' along a straight horizontal track , the string supporting the bob makes an angle tan−1 (a/g) with the normal to the ceiling. Suppose the train moves on an inclined straight track with uniform velocity. If the angle of incline is tan−1 (a/g), the string again makes the same angle with the normal to the ceiling. Can a person sitting inside the compartment tell by looking at the plumb line whether the train is accelerating on a horizontal straight track or moving on an incline? If yes, how? If not, then suggest a method to do so.
