Two masses, \(m\) and \(M\), are connected by a light string passing over a smooth pulley. When mass \(m\) moves up by \(1.4\) m in \(2\) sec, the ratio \(\frac{m}{M}\) is:
1. | \(\frac{13}{15} \) | 2. | \(\frac{15}{13} \) |
3. | \(\frac{9}{7} \) | 4. | \(\frac{7}{9}\) |

A truck and a car are moving with equal velocity. If equal retarding force is applied on each, then on applying the brakes both will stop after certain distance
1. Truck will cover less distance before rest
2. Car will cover less distance before rest
3. Both will cover equal distance
4. None
A constant force acts on a body of mass 0.9 kg at rest for 10s. If the body moves a distance of 250 m, the magnitude of the force is

A motor cyclist moving with a velocity of 72 km/hour on a flat road takes a turn on the road at a point where the radius of curvature of the road is 20 meters. The acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/sec2. In order to avoid skidding, he must not bend with respect to the vertical plane by an angle greater than
