A light string passing over a smooth light fixed pulley connects two blocks of masses $$m_1$$ and $$m_2$$. If the acceleration of the system is $$g / 8$$, then the ratio of masses is:
In the given arrangement of a doubly inclined plane two blocks of masses $$M$$ and $$m$$ are placed. The blocks are connected by a light string passing over an ideal pulley as shown. The coefficient of friction between the surface of the plane and the blocks is 0.25. The value of $$m$$, for which $$M=10 \mathrm{~kg}$$ will move down with an acceleration of $$2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$$, is: (take $$\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$$ and $$\left.\tan 37^{\circ}=3 / 4\right)$$
A block of mass $$m$$ is placed on a surface having vertical crossection given by $$y=x^2 / 4$$. If coefficient of friction is 0.5, the maximum height above the ground at which block can be placed without slipping is:
Three blocks $$A, B$$ and $$C$$ are pulled on a horizontal smooth surface by a force of $$80 \mathrm{~N}$$ as shown in figure
The tensions T$$_1$$ and T$$_2$$ in the string are respectively :
