$A$ block of mass $m$ is placed on a smooth inclined wedge $ABC$ of inclination $\theta$ as shown in the figure. The wedge is given an acceleration $a$ towards the right. The relation between $a$ and $\theta$ for the block to remain stationary on the wedge is

The weight of a man in a lift moving in an upward direction with an acceleration '$a$' is $660 \text{ N}$. When the lift moves in the downward direction with the same acceleration, his weight is found to be $380 \text{ N}$. The real weight of the man when the lift is at rest is: (in $\text{ N}$)
