Two blocks of masses \(2\) kg and \(3\) kg placed on a horizontal surface are connected by a massless string. If \(3\) kg is pulled by \(10\) N as shown in the figure, then the force of friction acting on the \(2\) kg block will be: [Take \(g=10~\text{m/s}^2\)]
1. | \(6\) N | 2. | \(4\) N |
3. | \(8\) N | 4. | \(12\) N |
Fundamentally, the normal force between two surfaces in contact is:
1. Electromagnetic
2. Gravitational
3. Weak nuclear force
4. Strong nuclear force
A particle of mass \(m\) is suspended from a ceiling through a massless string. The particle moves in a horizontal circle as shown in the given figure. The tension in the string is:
1. \(mg\)
2. \(2mg\)
3. \(3mg\)
4. \(4mg\)
Choose the incorrect alternative:
1. | Newton's first law is the law of inertia. |
2. | Newton's first law states that if the net force on a system is zero, the acceleration of any particle of the system is not zero. |
3. | Action and reaction act simultaneously. |
4. | The area under the force-time graph is equal to the change in momentum. |
The kinetic energy 'K' of a particle moving in a circular path varies with the distance covered S as K = a, where a is constant. The angle between the tangential force and the net force acting on the particle is: (R is the radius of the circular path)

A simple pendulum hangs from the roof of a train moving on horizontal rails. If the string is inclined towards the front of the train, then the train is:
1. | moving with constant velocity. |
2. | in accelerated motion. |
3. | in retarded motion. |
4. | at rest. |
A body of mass \(m\) is moving on a concave bridge \(ABC\) of the radius of curvature \(R\) at a speed \(v\). The normal reaction of the bridge on the body at the instant it is at the lowest point of the bridge is:

2. \(mg+\frac{mv^{2}}{R}\)
3. \(mg\)
4. \(\frac{mv^{2}}{R}\)
The angle of banking for a cyclist taking a turn at a curve is given by \(\tan\theta = \frac{v^{n}}{rg}\) where symbols have their usual meaning. The value of \(n\) is:
