A uniform metal chain is placed on a rough table such that one end of chain hangs down over the edge of the table. When one-third of its length hangs over the edge, the chain starts sliding. Then, the coefficient of static friction is

Pulling force making an angle $\theta $ to the horizontal is applied on a block of weight $W$ placed on a horizontal table. If the angle of friction is $\alpha $, then the magnitude of force required to move the body is equal to

A vehicle is moving with speed $v$ on a curved road of radius $r$. The coefficient of friction between the vehicle and the road is $\mu$. The angle $\theta$ of banking needed is given by

Someone is using a scissors to cut a wire of circular cross section and negligible weight. The wire slides in the direction away from the hinge until the angle between the scissors blades becomes $2 \alpha$. The friction coefficient between the blades and the wire, is :-

A small body slips, subject to the force of friction, from point $A$ to point $B$ along two curved surfaces of equal radius, first along route $1,$ then along route $2$. Friction does not depend on the speed and the coefficient of friction on both routes is the same. In which case will the body’s speed at $B$ be greater?

The coefficient of static friction between a wooden block of mass $0.5\, kg$ and a vertical rough wall is $0.2$ The magnitude of horizontal force that should be applied on the block to keep it adhere to the wall will be $N$ $\left[ g =10\, ms ^{-2}\right]$
