[Ans:
2. At a certain instant a body of mass 15 kg is falling freely under gravity was found to be falling at a
speed of 25 m/s. What force will stop the body in 2 seconds? [Ans : 187.5 N]
3. A 2 kg particle rests on a very smooth horizontal plane and is acted upon by force components F X=0
and Fy=3N. If x=0, y=0 Vx=2m/s when t=0, determine the equation y=f(x) which describes the path of
x2 x
the particle. [Ans :y = + ]

10. Masses A(5 kg), B(10 kg), C(20kg) are connected as shown in figure by inextensible cord passing over
massless and frictionless pulleys. The coefficient of friction for masses A and B with ground is 0.2. If
the system is released from rest, find the acceleration of the blocks and tension in the cords.
11. Three weights A, B and C of weights 3kg, 2kg and 7kg are connected as
shown fig. Determine the
accelerations of A,B and C. Also find the tension on the strings.
12. Find ‘P’ required to accelerate the block shown in figure below at 2.5m/sec 2.
Take µ=0.3
Ans: P=208.63 N
13. Determine the weight ‘W’ required to bring the system in the
following figure to stop in 5 second if at the instant as
shown, 500 N block is moving down at 3m/sec. The
pulley is frictionless.
Ans:415.14 N
18. Find the velocity of block A and B when block A has travelled 1.2 m along inclined plane. Mass of A is
10 kg and that of B is 50 kg. Coefficient of friction between block A and inclined plane is 0.25. Pulley
are mass less and frictionless use work energy principle. Refer figure.
