A truck is stationary and has a bob suspended by a light string in a frame attached to the truck. The truck suddenly moves to the right with an acceleration of \(a.\) In the frame of the truck, the pendulum will tilt:
1. | to the left and the angle of inclination of the pendulum with the vertical is \(\text{sin}^{-1} \left( \dfrac{a}{g} \right )\) |
2. | to the left and the angle of inclination of the pendulum with the vertical is \(\text{cos}^{-1} \left ( \dfrac{a}{g} \right )\) |
3. | to the left and the angle of inclination of the pendulum with the vertical is \(\text{tan}^{-1} \left ( \dfrac{a}{g} \right )\) |
4. | to the left and the angle of inclination of the pendulum with the vertical is \(\text{tan}^{-1} \left ( \dfrac{g}{a} \right )\) |
A body of mass \(m\) is kept on a rough horizontal surface (coefficient of friction = \(\mu).\) A horizontal force is applied to the body, but it does not move. The resultant of normal reaction and the frictional force acting on the object is given by \(\vec {F}\) where:
1. \(|{\vec {F}}| = mg+\mu mg\)
2. \(|\vec {F}| =\mu mg\)
3. \(|\vec {F}| \le mg\sqrt{1+\mu^2}\)
4. \(|\vec{F}| = mg\)
