प्रश्न
Give the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on a stone of mass 0.1 kg, just after it is dropped from the window of a stationary train. Neglect air resistance.
उत्तर
1 N; vertically downward
Mass of the stone, m = 0.1 kg
Acceleration of the stone, a = g = 10 m/s2
According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force acting on the stone is:
F = ma = mg
= 0.1 × 10 = 1 N

In figure, a body A of mass m slides on plane inclined at angle θ1 to the horizontal and µ1 is the coefficent of friction between A and the plane. A is connected by a light string passing over a frictionless pulley to another body B, also of mass m, sliding on a frictionless plane inclined at angle θ2 to the horizontal. Which of the following statements are true?
- A will never move up the plane.
- A will just start moving up the plane when `µ = (sin θ_2 - sin θ_1)/(cos θ_1)`
- For A to move up the plane, θ2 must always be greater than θ1.
- B will always slide down with constant speed.
