Two blocks are in contact on a frictionless table. One has mass $m$ and the other $2\,m$. A force $F$ is applied on $2\,m$ as shown in the figure. Now the same force $F$ is applied from the right on $m$. In the two cases respectively, the ratio force of contact between the two block will be:
819-732

  • A
    $1:2$
  • B
    same
  • C
    $2:1$
  • D
    $1:3$

Four blocks are connected as shown in the fig. on a horizontal frictionless surface of $m_1 = m_2 = m_3 = m_4$ then $T_3/T_4$ will be

Two particle of mass $m$ each are tied at the ends of a light string of length $2 \mathrm{a}$. The whole system is kept on a frictionless horizontal surface with the string held tight so that each mass is at a distance $'a'$ from the center $\mathrm{P}$ (as shown in the figure). Now, the mid-point of the string is pulled vertically upwards with a small but constant force $F$. As a result, the particles move towards each other on the surface. The magnitude of acceleration, when the separation between them becomes $2 \mathrm{x}$ is
