Important Questions on Laws of Motion

A plank inclined at an angle of to the horizontal lies on two supports and (figure), over which it can slip without friction under the action of its own weight . With what acceleration and in what direction should a man of mass move along the plank so that it should not slip?

In the shown figure inside a fixed hollow cylinder with vertical axis a pendulum is rotating in a conical path with its axis same as that of the cylinder with uniform angular velocity. Radius of cylinder is , length of string is and mass of bob is . The bob makes contact with the inner frictionless wall of the cylinder while moving

A ball of mass '' rotating in a circle of radius '' with speed inside a smooth cone as shown in figure. Let be the normal reaction on the ball by the cone, then choose the correct the option.

The block and shown in the figure have masses and . The system is released from rest. The speed of after has travelled a distance along the incline is:

A gun which fires small ball of mass is firing balls per second on the smooth horizontal table surface . If the collision is perfectly elastic and balls are striking at the centre of table with a speed at an angle of with the vertical just before collision, then force exerted by one of the leg on ground is (assume total weight of the table is and ):-
