$A$ ball is suspended on a thread from the ceiling of a car. The brakes are applied and the speed of the car changes from $5\, m/s$ to $\frac{5}{3}\, m/s$ during the time interval of $3\, s$. The angle that the thread will deviate from the vertical in the new equilibrium position is:

  • A
    $\theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{9}\right)$
  • B
    $\theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{8}{9}\right)$
  • C
    $\theta = \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{9}\right)$
  • D
    $\theta = \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{9}\right)$

$A$ wedge $Y$ with mass of $10 \text{ kg}$ has all frictionless surfaces, and the inclined surface makes an angle of $37^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. $A$ block $X$ with mass $2 \text{ kg}$ is placed at the highest point of the wedge as shown in the figure and is at rest. At $t=0$, the wedge $Y$ is pulled toward the right with a constant force $f$ of $24 \text{ N}$. Taking the block $X$ at rest at $t=0$, the time taken by it to slide down $8.8 \text{ m}$ on the slope, while $Y$ is in motion, is . . . . . . s.

$A$ spring balance is attached to the ceiling of a lift. $A$ man hangs his bag on the spring and the spring balance reads $49 \,N$, when the lift is stationary. If the lift moves downward with an acceleration of $5 \,m/s^2$, the reading of the spring balance will be $(g = 9.8 \,m/s^2)$. (in $\,N$)
