Three forces start acting simultaneously on a particle moving with velocity \(\vec v\). These forces are represented in magnitude and direction by the three sides of a triangle \(ABC\) (as shown). The particle will now move with velocity:

1. \(\vec v\) remaining unchanged
2. Less than \(\vec v\)
3. Greater than \(\vec v\)
4. \(\vec v\) in the direction of the largest force \(BC\)

Two blocks are connected by a string as shown in the diagram. The upper block is hung by another string. A force \(F\) applied on the upper string produces an acceleration of in the upward direction in both the blocks. If \(T\) and \(T’\) be the tensions in the two parts of the string, then:

1. \(T = 70.8\ \text{N}\ \text{and}\ T’ = 47.2\ \text{N}\)
2. \(T = 58.8\ \text{N}\ \text{and}\ T’ = 47.2\ \text{N}\)
3. \(T = 70.8\ \text{N}\ \text{and}\ T’ = 58.8\ \text{N}\)
4. \(T = 70.8\ \text{N}\ \text{and}\ T’ = 40.2\ \text{N}\)

A block is kept on a frictionless inclined surface with an angle of inclination \(α\). The incline is given an acceleration \(a\) to keep the block stationary. Then \(a\) is equal to:

1. \(g\)
2. \(g\tanα\)
3. \(\dfrac g{\tanα}\)
4. \(g\ \text{cosec}\ α\)
