A force of magnitude acts on a particle so as to accelerate it from rest to a velocity . The force is then replaced by another force of magnitude which decelerates it to rest.


Important Questions on Laws of Motion
In the given figure, what is the reading of the spring balance?

Two blocks of masses and are connected to each other through a light spring as shown in figure. If we push mass with force and cause acceleration in right direction. What will be the magnitude of acceleration in ?

A massless spring balance is attached to trolley and is used to pull the trolley along a flat surface as shown in the figure. The reading on the spring balance remains at during the motion. The acceleration of the trolley is (use )

The ratio of the weight of a man in a stationary lift & when it is moving downward with uniform acceleration is . The value of is (acceleration due to gravity)


Two masses of and , respectively are connected by a massless spring as shown in the figure. A force of acts on the mass, at the instant when the mass has an acceleration of towards right, the acceleration of the mass is

In the arrangement shown in the figure all surfaces are frictionless, pulley and string are light. The masses of the block are and . The accelerations of masses and will be if is applied according to figure.

Three masses of and are connected to each other with threads and are placed on table as shown in figure. What is the acceleration with which the system is moving? Take .
